View Full Version : [ISBoxer] Using default windowed mode with 5 boxing

I currently have my boxing config setup to completely fill both monitors, with no borders or space between the instances of wow. So I have to Alt-ESC to get back to my desktop when running everything. I'd like to setup it up where each window runs in a standard Wow windowed mode - title bars, taskbar shows, etc.

Can I just flip the border style in ISBoxer to "Application defined" on all 5 windows? Will it cause any odd behavior? Will I lose the instant swap and scaling?

You have a variety of different window layouts.
I've elected to have my Taskbar visible on that monitor.
That might be the easiest for you.
The aspect ratio of the windows is still the same, and they're rendered the same even if the slaves are scaled down... so everything is still instant swaps, and mouse broadcasting is accurate.

I have a layout, where the four slaves each take up a quarter of my second monitor.
As in, no extra space.

I have another, where the four slaves in total occupy a quarter of that monitor (1/4 each, of the top 1/4 of the monitor).
Which leaves me space for my XSplit, iTunes, Firefox and Windows Media Player.

In both of these layouts, the main takes up the entirety of the main window, but with the Task Bar visible.
