First!!

Ahem, I mean thanks for the new release.

Just tried j version and whenever I hit the Pause button to chat or change keybindings I lose focus of wow and have to click my main window. :(

[keyclone]

i'm not seeing that behavior. anyone else seeing this ?

[AshuXa]

Negative.

I am having one issue though. When i close keyclone with the red X instead of right clicking the system tray icon to close it, it doesn't really close. i have to go into Task Manager and kill the process. not a huge issue in sure as must of us probably don't CLOSE keyclone that often.

I'll put j back in place and try it again. I was doing re-bindings and adjusting my macros and pressed ctrl-alt-numpad . which unfortunately is ctrl-alt DELETE and brought up the windows lock screen on vista. After that I could not keep wow focused when pausing keyclone and had to re-click the wow window on my main screen after every pause/unpause lol.

I'm not sure if the c-a-delete is related but I'll try it again and see if it happens.

I have to say though going back to g was a pain, had many run aways last night after doing that but added some dnp keys related to W and that seemed to help a lot. I don't remember having a runaway on i while I was using it.

Ok, just tested and kc *loses* the ability to pause via the pause key after using ctrl-alt-numpad . (this is reproducible after shutting down wow & keyclone and doing it again). Running on Vista 64 Ultimate SP 1.

I tried getting the focus to fail but it did not this time. It did happen though after the above event and even after shutting wow and kc down.

Going back to i for now. Let me know if you want me to try anything.

I am using windows home server (aka server 2003) and version J hangs after several minutes. I tried adjusting nic settings but it didn't help. My 2 xp pro machines were fine with ver J.

Reverted to ver I and all is well.

"bug: caught a crash bug upon quick pip swap"
Good to see that one fixed! :D (although it only ocurred rarely)
I'll test it out tonight.

I'm also having this.

Version J seems to be working better then H and I for me. :thumbsup:

Awesome Rob

[Ken]

Thanks for the new version!

All previous versions had a minorbug, so has this one:
When I close any of the last 3 versions of keyclone, the mouse cursor starts to lag enormously (in Windows, no WoW active). Because of this, I'm almost inable to move the mouse (it moves just slightly in the direction I want it to move too).

Having a issue.

after about 5-10mins of play my connection between my 2 computers drop. Kc still works for each pc, but not over the network. had no probs in 1.8i. only had this prob since installing 1.8j about 30mins ago.

[keyclone]

what type of network? wired or wireless?

[bornmx]

wired. i do have the right ip and port numbers used when connecting the 2.

I've always had that issue with other versions doesn't happen that often just restart keyclone / wow and it usually fixes it.

[kayb]

Playtested it some today, and as far as I can tell, it looks stable. Had no problems, but didn't test for very long.

[kayb]

3-4 hours more testing yielded 3 crashes/hangs on one of the machines. More stable than i and h, but not quite there yet.

[Chrysanthe]

Just tried j version and whenever I hit the Pause button to chat or change keybindings I lose focus of wow and have to click my main window. :(Yep, having the same issue sometimes: when activating Override, the "Mute" window forces itself to the foreground and I have to click the WoW window again, to gain focus. But it's definitely not an issue in j, since I haven't DL'd j yet. Got v1.8i still.

[Mac]

I'm not sure if this is covered anywhere else, if so, please point me there.

I had a previous version of KC and when I had focus in my main window and wanted to swap my main window out with one of the clones, I would just press the F key I have set up for that window ( F9 top left, F10 top right, F11 Bottom left, F12 bottom right) and they would swap, then I would do whatever I was doing, press the same F key and they would swap back. Now, with this version, I press the F key and it swaps, but when I press it again, they don't swap back. I found I needed to go and click on that window where the clone was and then press the F key again to get it to swap back.

I also noticed that sometimes it doesn't swap the window I want, like its not recognizing the press of the F key, so I will try it on a different window and it will work, then i can go back to my original window I wanted to switch in the firs place and it will then work.

Thanks for the updates!

[keyclone]

there was some discussion on the swapping and how it worked.

basically, you hit the key for the associated window. so, if A is tied to region1 and pip key F1 and B is in region2 and pip key F2...while in region1... you would hit F2 and B would show up. to get A back, you would hit F1

so basically, the key is more tied to the command then the region...
