    Default Way to change game resolution/windowed via macro or mod?

    Hello, im new to the forum but have been dual boxing since about November of last year. Currently, I have 3x teams and im starting my first Northrend run today. I can do pretty much everything I want to on either window (this team is Master Demon Warlock and Slave Ele Shaman) minus metamorphosis when playing on slave. I use a single box solution using Autohotkey and leave one window maximized and the other windowed. This leaves no lag and I play fine. However:

    I like to reverse my dualbox a lot (ie switching masters), even tho 80% of the time is warlock as the master. I either play the windowed and the fullscreen one is just minimized (very laggy for slave toon, like when I have both at fullscreen and one minimized) or I switch the resolution/windowed 1 then the other. However doing a full switch is an annoyance more then anything. But is there a way to macro to change the resolution or windowed status? Id save time considerably especially if I can get it hotkeyed. I see program like Maximizer and its great from the looks of it but there seems to be a fee for it. Id consider the option to a borderless window at 1680x1050 (my fullscreen resolution) and have the slave window at a lesser resolution or something.

    I looked at your wiki, searched the forum, read up on the script/macro commands on wowwiki (I couldnt find a thing...) and even asked the wow forums (no replies, just asked about macro/mod not mentioning about two wow instances at once or dualboxing) so im hoping to get an answer here. Thanks in advance

    HotKeyNet is capable of this.

    Check out the website and look at the "PiP" page. Hope that helps.

    Ty, I will try that if my new way doesnt work. I set both game settings to 1680x1050 and windowed with fullscreen. Both seem to work well together that way and tabbing is 10x faster then before and both dont lag. I setup macros for those video quality settings and have the button for high and low switched and hotkeyed so that its easily done.

    But will try if doesnt work out Thanks.
