Yes, the active application or the one "in focus" is the active program that these HIDs (human interface devices) manipulate. I have sent a feature request in for the Griffin PowerMate to allow the device to control a specific program it is associated with regardless if it is in focus or not. That was over a year ago and as you see, there have been no updates with this feature, so I stopped holding my breath :-)

Or, can another program (like a digital mode program) be (and remain) the current foreground app and still allow me to manipulate PowerSDR using the device? de Peter K1PGV _______________________________________________ FlexRadio mailing list FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archive Link: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ FlexRadio Knowledge Base: http://kb.flex-radio.com/ FlexRadio Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/ _______________________________________________ FlexRadio mailing list FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archive Link: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ FlexRadio Knowledge Base: http://kb.flex-radio.com/ FlexRadio Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/
