launching ie from keyclone

[Canasou]

Not sure if this has been covered and apologies if so. Just thought I'd share...

I was messing around with Keyclone and was changing my setup around. I moved my main character to full screen on one monitor and partitioned my 3 clones on a wide screen monitor. Now I always use ie to look stuff up and such while playing and the light bulb went "boink"!



I went into the keyclone maximizer and defined another region and use that to have keyclone launch a windowless instance of ie that fits perfectly in the void.



The -k paramater is what makes it windowless and maximize space.



The only manual step in this process is to remove the ie instance once it is running from keyclone to avoid passing it key commands. If there's a setting or a way to configure keyclone to do this, I'd love to know.

I'm just guessing here,(seriously, no smartassery ;p) but try highlighting the IE entry in Keyclone's active window list and hitting Delete...I assume that should work since it's not a window titled World of Warcraft so the auto-add shouldn't re-add it later

No smartassery taken. That's what I meant by the manual process to remove it.

Auto-add is generally a bad idea anyway when you start them using commands, or so i hear, and I think there is or will be added a function in the command setup to wake the window not be included in the key broadcasting. Should be there somewhere, and I'm pretty sure there is at least an option to select a window and suspend it from the broadcasting.

interesting.

check under setup/override settings for the 'suspend' hotkey. alternatively, you can right-click the keyclone entry once added.. and it will show a popup menu... select 'suspend' to exclude that window from passing keys

That's what I was talking about
