Keep focus on several windows at a time

Questions & Answers

Hi !

Here is my problem:

  • I have a fullscreen application running on my second monitor (which is an oculus btw) and i have a windowed application running on my main monitor
  • Both application are made with Unity and linked through Network so i can update parameters in my oculus app with my windowed app
  • When i’m on the full screen application and i click on the windowed one on the other monitor, the fullscreen app goes down

I guess it’s because i lose focus on the window. I tried with both windows set to windowed and it doesn’t create the problem. I’m already using the ‘run in background’ option.

How do i keep focus on both windows ?

You have to launch both applications in windowed mode, otherwise the full-screen app will minimize when losing focus. Try with “-popupwindow” command line argument on your full-screen app, it will launch your application in a borderless window.
