Problem with ..... layering

[Jocman]

Hi guys.

After long time, I finished my interface (well, some problem with the run of the macros, but I'll post something later, still checking it...)

My current problem is the following.

The interface is based on several tabs; one of this (here I call it MAIN), is a transparent layer, with a small touch area in a corner.
The issue is to display the SHKVAL of DCS:BS in the MAIN tab.

During the "making of" phase, evrything works fine: I can see the desktop behind the interface, and the small touch area in the corner.

But when I tried to use it inside BS I have the problem: the interface is behind the SHKVAL. When I touch the small touch area (I don't see it now), nothing happens (usually it should display another TAB).

Making some ... lucky test, I've seen that if the main monitor displays the Win7 start bar while is showing the sim (cockpit), I see in my interface the small touch area on the SHKVAL, I touch it and evrything works as I wish.

But clicking in the main monitor (sim) the start bar disappears, so as the touch area in the corner, and I can't use it anymore.

There is some issue related to the fact that with multimonitor config BS need to be run windowed and not full screen?

Or how to fix this problem?

Thanks

Have you tried making the TB screen always stay on top? I think that when the game gets the focus it puts it on top, and since you have the Shkval on the TB monitor it jumps on top of TB.

In the Toolkit, look on the Window tab and check the checkbox called 'Always on top'.

Thanks WBK, it works great now....
It was related to that feature.
Sometime the solution is so stupid that we never think about, looking for something else, "bigger, better, harder"......
