    Default Main window loses ability to broadcast mouse

    Eventually my primary window loses the ability to broadcast mouse clicks or cursor position. The only way for me to get it back, that I've found, is to completely shut down and restart that instance of WoW. Although I lose the ability to broadcast mouse, the predefined regions that I have set up for click healing continue to broadcast the mouse, even from the troubled WoW instance. Also, other instances of WoW continue to function normally and if I make them the primary then they broadcast just fine.

    I might guess that the Repeater Target is munged in that instance. The "Activate Repeat" mapped key for some time now has a Repeater Target Action at the top in order to reset the Repeater Target back to "Window: All w/o Current".

    If you're using an older configuration (e.g. originally made with a pretty early build of 40, or anything prior to 40), then you might not have this and so it would keep whatever the current Repeater Target is. If that's the case, it's entirely possible that some sequence of actions involving Video FX with broadcasting or Repeater Regions or something might be leaving the wrong Repeater Target in this window.

    This is the only thing that comes to mind from your description.

    Actually now that I test what I just said, it appears that the Activate Repeat that's in the WoW config does NOT reset the Repeater Target, just the non-WoW version. I'll have to update the generated WoW config with this change, but anyone with this issue currently can do the following....

    So I guess here's my suggestion. (Add the described Repeater Target Action)
    1. In the top left pane under Key Maps select Always On
    2. In the bottom left pane under Mapped Keys, expand "Activate Repeat" so under it you see Steps, 1 and 2
    3. Click on the 1 under Steps
    4. In the bottom right pane, right click Actions and, under "Repeater Actions", select "New Repeater Target Action"
    5. To the right, you will need to configure this new Action's properties:
    5a. Set "Target" to "Window:Current" (or "Window: All w/ Current"). This affects which window(s) will change its Repeater Target.
    5b. Set "New Repeater Target" to "Window: All w/o Current" and leave "Block buttons" unchecked. This is the default Repeater Target when you start up ISBoxer
    6. Now move the new Action to the top of the Step, before Repeater gets turned on. You can either right click the Action and select "Move Up", or select the Action and press Alt+Up (or Alt+Down) to move it
    7. Export to Inner Space

    Thanks Lax - I'm out of town at the moment but I'll test it when back early next week

    Well, the problem isn't going away so looks like I need to actually address it. Seems to happen after an hour or two of playing.

    The problem is I think I'm using a really old build. I don't have a key map called "Always On" and I'm having trouble following the steps. Would you mind looking at my config?

    In Warcraft, "Always On" would likely be the "Control" Key Map.
    EverQuest I: Bard / Enchanter / Druid / Wizard / 2x Magician.
    Diablo III: 4x Crusader & 4x Wizard.
