PiP explained

fyi.. the PiP switch triggers only on the KEYUP event. you will have to release the key in order for it to trigger.

tested it last night in ashenvale, had Astrid :) pally, 24 mage, 38 Priest and the mage AoE grinding ungrouped - no probs switching at all. Very nice Keyclone :thumbsup: cant wait to get this mage up to 38 with the rest of the team so I can finally use AoE blizz

I'm using v1.8e
I reset my maximizer window areas to have a pip hot key.
I chose to make the PiP hot keys:
................................| LALT+F6 for upper left toon | LALT+F7 for upper right toon |
LALT+F5 for main toon |................................................. ......................... |
................................| LALT+F8 for lower left toon | LALT+F9 for lower right toon |

I logged into each toon, and tried to test switching them with the keys at the loading screen and that didn't work, so I entered the game on each toon and tried to switch them with the hot keys and that didn't work.

What am I doing wrong?

Here's a shot of my set up. You will notice the upper right and lower right toons are hidden and can't be seen in the maximizer window grid. I'm going to be making another post about that on the maximizer thread.

your region name seems to start with a couple of spaces. are your wows showing up properly? do they maximize?

if not, that is probably due to the region name not matching exactly with the region specified in the command.
my advice... no spaces or caps in region names.

let me know if that helps.

I don't have any leading spaces in my region names. The example you see there has been altered to change the actual name used to post in the forum.

are your wows maximizing properly? no frames or titlebars?

as for when you can switch them... you don't have to be in-game to do it. it can be done at any time.

yes maximizer seems to be working fine, no frames or title bars. When I start them all up ( individually or as a string command), they position themselves just fine, main window on left monitor, four seamless tiled ones on the right monitor.

nice looking setup.

when you try to PiP... are you currently on one of the wows? one of the regions must have focus in order for PiP to function. being in a browser or with keyclone in the foreground, PiP will not function

Thanks! Can't wait to get pip working, it will save me from buying another monitor for the middle to use the two 24" vertically on the sides, those small windows make it so hard to see.

Here's what I'm doing.
I open KC, start up all the clients using the connect button for each individual client, pause KC, individually log into each of the five game sessions (since some of the pw keys are in the do not pass list), take off KC pause, set my focus on the main toons screen by clicking on it and moving to verify the focus, then alternately try to change by pressing the pip hotkeys defined in the maximizer set up as show, however when I press LALT+F5 through LALT+F9 and nothing changes places.

It appears to me as if its not recognizing the press of the LALT key? Any idea why? I just noticed that when I press LALT+F8 the far left bag on the action bar opens for all the toons, and when I press LALT+F9 the second bag from the left opens for all toons, and in party LALT+F5 changes mains target to the fifth party member, these keys are bound by the default interface, am I supposed to unbind LALT+F5 - LALT+F9 ? Note: I changed the pip for the main and first client on the top left to LCTRL+F5 and LCTRL+F6 respectively and that didn't work either. I unbound the F8 and F9 from each of the clients ( separate wow folders) and that didn't seem to work either.

What's the earliest point in this process that I can test pip, once maximizer loads them all to the login screen, or after I've logged in, or after I've entered the game on each client?

once maximizer has moved them into position, they can be swapped (be nice and wait for them all to be maximized..)
