wow-keyclone vista and F3

[lewtrek]

First off I'm loving keyclone.

My problem: I'm using two separate boxes. On my main pc I am running WoW full-screen, when I hit F3 with keyclone running it opens up Vista-search (and alt-tabs out of WoW). When I hit F3 without keyclone running it doesn't open Vista search. I haven't found a way to disable the F3 functionality in Vista.

I'm just using ctrl-f3 for that command instead, but it's a pain if i forget.

Click your active windows in Keyclone's list, see if there's a "Blank/empty" entry there with your World of Warcrafts; if there is, that's your Desktop being picked up by accident, simply remove it from the list with rightclick>whatever the option is and it should stop that from happening

If there's no blank entries, I have no clue what it is causing it lol

a nice one to try, it sounds possible, unfortunately i can't go on until tonight. Thanks!

I was having that same problem, and removing the blank entry in keyclone seemed to fix it. Also, if you have keyclone set to start up WoW for you with commands (which you should), then you should un-check "Auto-add windows" and then you shouldn't see the blank entry again.

Howdy lewtrek, and welcome to the forums!

yup.. they hit it.

you need to UNCHECK keyclone/setup/general/auto-add-windows-titled

of course, if you are just running wow and expecting keyclone to pick it up, well, then unchecking it might not work as expected.. since it will stop adding wow. i would recommend using commands to launch your wows, making it easier to startup. another option would be to CHECK 'exact name match' .. at which point it might only catch the wow windows.

feel free to drop me note if you have any more questions

have fun!

I tried removing the blanked-out instance, but that just comes back right afterwards.

But it does look like unchecking that box worked. Thanks!
