Balloon notifications

[Game_Master]

Hi,
So I got my spell checker working, and it works well, apart from the fact that when I run the built application and the balloon notification pops up when the spelling is wrong, it sets the window the user is on our of focus. Is there a way to reset the focus once the balloon notification has appeared?

Thanks,
GM

What extension are you using for the balloon notification? I don't get this issue at all using the Advanced Tray Object.

I'm using the Advanced Tray Object. It only happens when I am running the built app, for some reason.

I built a test app that made an icon and made a balloon appear after 14 seconds, built the EXE, ran the EXE, and, I had my focus on a different window. When the balloon came up no focus was lost, my window kept focus on it.

Hmm, what if you have focus in an edit box (for example in the address bar)?

Hey, Game_Master!

That sounds really interesting... Are you placing the spellchecking interface inside a balloon in the System Tray? That's a cool idea. How did you set that up?

RGBreality he isn't doing that, and that is impossible too. What he's doing is he has a tray icon that when a Balloon appaears, he claims it loses focus from anything he has focus on. I cannot replicate this at all, though.

I am not sure if it does it on Vista or Windows 7, but it definatly happens on XP.

Game_Master I am running Windows XP Home Edition SP2 and I cannot reproduce your issue. Can you make an MFA that you know causes this and send it to me via this thread?

I've sent it via PM
