Window position change after alt+tab

Issues - Platform and API
#1

Issue Description: GameInfoWindow (in my case) keeps resetting its position after alt+tab
Steps to reproduce:
The window is at (example) 1,1
Drag the window in another position (10,10)
Alt+Tab to Windows
Back into the game
The window position resets to 1,1
Impact for my app: [low, mid, high, show-stopper]: high
Do you currently have a workaround?
No

@dowmeister,

  • have you tried to set keep_window_location=true in your manifest?
  • Did you check that you are not re-position the window when the game is back to focus?
#4

no and yes.
I’m not tracking the game focus change.

what’s the purposes of this flag? why by default windows position change on game focus change?

#5

I’m not sure why the behavior is like this by default.
Is this flag solved the problem?

#8

I am closing this issue due to a lack of response.
You can always ask to reopen it by mentioning me with a @.

Thanks.
