I have an application that uses a full-screen Flashplayer app in the background for selection of movies, and a small VLC-window in the foreground (always on top). The user select a movie and it starts to play in the VLC window (It looks like plug-in but is not).
All control is handled by the Flashplayer app; so I have tested with several configurations, in particular "SloppyFocus" for the Flashplayer, and "NeverFocus" for the VLC player. This works fine; Flashplayer keeps the focus, even when my VLC-player goes full-screen and Flashplayer is invisible in the background (which is what I want). But when VLC goes back to normal screen, Flashplayer looses the focus suddenly (as a matter of fact, it seems like no window has the focus, but I am not sure how to verify that). When I move the mouse into the VLC-window, then back to the Flashplayer-window, Flashplayer regains the focus and everything works again (as expected - SloppyFocus). Why does Flashplayer loose the focus when VLC goes from full-screen to normal-screen? How can I prevent this from happening? Thx, Z.
