Alt Tab black screen with full screen

Welcome to our brand new Clickteam Community Hub! We hope you will enjoy using the new features, which we will be further expanding in the coming months.

A few features including Passport are unavailable initially whilst we monitor stability of the new platform, we hope to bring these online very soon. Small issues will crop up following the import from our old system, including some message formatting, translation accuracy and other things.

Thank you for your patience whilst we've worked on this and we look forward to more exciting community developments soon!

  • Hello there, just noticed with my build when I am in full screen and press alt+tab to multitask the application appears completely black with a blue title in the top left corner.

    Thanks for the help.

  • what fullscreen settings are you using? There's "change resolution mode", "stretch to fill window" and Ultimate Fullscreen extension (windowed fullscreen). Also, how do you want your app to behave when the user is Alt tabbing? should it minimize, move to background, resize window, etc.? Generally I think Alt tabbing is only possible with windowed fullscreen solutions.

    ... and an example .mfa would also be helpful

  • Hey, thanks for the reply. Heres a file that can reproduce the bug. If you launch it and then press space it will go into full screen. Then the first time your press alt+tab it minimises properly showing the window. The second time you do it it produces the bug with a black screen. Please login to see this link.

  • Ah, now I understand what you mean. The app's preview window shows black instead of the last rendered screen when Alt-tabbing out of fullscreen mode for the second time. I can reproduce it on my system (Win 8.1). I think this might be a minor bug related to how Fusion handles windowed fullscreen itself. I use Ultimate fullscreen extension and this bug did not occure so far, you could try to implement it and see how it goes. Anyway I personally think this is a minor issue, as your app displays properly once the window is active again. I doubt any user would flame you for leaving it like this :P

  • Thanks for the help. Using the ultimate fullscreen extension makes it work however i still have one issue. I want to have the maximise button (the square) maximize the window but not go into full screen, how do i do that?
