My Questions

I'm brand new to the software, so these issues might not be bugs. They might just be me. For other new users reading this, the Quick Start Guide is here.

Q6 Closing the IS icon in the systray occasionally cancels the gamma correction settings of my ATI Catalyst Control Center. Is there any way to prevent ISBoxer from altering the settings upon close?
Q11 How do I identify which WoW client I'm using if I can't see the title bar? Is there a hotkey?
Q12 Is there an easy way to move my Key Maps and Macros from an old profile to the new profile created by the ISBoxer 42 Quick Setup Wizard?
RESOLVED
(Thanks to Ualaa and Lax!)
Q1 When I'm in WoW and I'm trying to get ISBoxer to stop interfering with what I'm trying to do, I can close down the ISB Suite and close the IS systray icon, but ISB will NOT stop working. It continues to function. Very frustrating! How the heck do I turn it off??
A1 Logout of Wow also as the ISBoxer addon continues to provide critical functionality.
Q2 So I setup 5 characters per the Quick Setup Wizard video. The software ALWAYS fails to enter any login information--NOT the password, just the account name and subaccount--on 2 accounts. So I have to flip between windows guessing which window is for which login only to be told upon entering the world that IS was expecting 1 toon but I logged into another and functionality may be limited. How do I fix the login issue please? (These 2 accounts have no associated Virtual Files on the bottom pane when I click (in the top paane) Config.WTF under Virtual Files.)
A2 The solution is most likely related to a missing config file. In the top left pane, you should be able to click on Virtual Files and expand that. Then click on Config.WTF. In the bottom left pane you can expand Characters to see which characters have a virtualized Config file. If a character is missing a config file, you should be able to expand Characters in the top left pane, and then drag them down to "Characters" under Config.WTF (in the bottom left pane). That is usually the procedure to add something. Otherwise, use the Setup Wizard until it adds the config file for that character (I had to use it 3x once).
Q3 How do I move the ISBoxer spell box inside the Wow client please?
A3 It comes from the Jamba addon, not the ISBoxer addon. (Hold Alt down and L-Click to move it around.)
Q4 How do I make ISBoxer use the regions I setup in my Window Layouts? I'm 5-boxing with 5 regions. Regions 1-4 are each 256x192 (4:3) and region 5 is 1024x768. Each slot is configured to use a single region, but when I save, export and launch ALL 5 windows are using 1280x768 resolution.
A4 Disable instant window swapping. 'You're going to lose out on mouse broadcasting. But you would simply disable the "Instant Swapping" option in your Window Layout. This can be done during the Quick Setup Wizard, later with the Window Layout Wizard, or you can modify your existing Window Layout. To change your existing one, select it in the top left pane under Window Layouts and, in the bottom right pane, uncheck "Use Instant window swapping (synchronizes game resolutions)"'
Q5 How do I disable the Repeater and Key Map icons at the top left inside the Wow client?
A5 Alt + Ctrl + Shift B
Q7 My toons will not follow my main when I press Alt + F. In the Wow client I use the F key to strafe right. I use Shift + F to Target Next Enemy. I made sure KeyMaps and the ISBoxer addon are turned on. (I tried with and without Jamba.) If I go to one of my slaves and press Alt + F then the 3 other toons will follow that slave. But it doesn't work on the main. I followed the steps in this guide to make sure those F11 combo keys aren't bound.

A7 In ISBoxer, go to Character Sets and select your Character Set. Click the numbered slot that isn't working right (e.g. "1" under Slots) in the bottom left pane. Now, in the bottom right pane, make sure something is checked for World of Warcraft: FTL Modifiers.
Q8 Why does Alt + Shift + F maximize the window Wow client window? This keyboard shortcut only works when I launch the Wow clients through ISBoxer. How do I disable it?
A8 ISBoxer 40.1.0226.1 fixed an issue where Inner Space's default Shift+Alt+F, Shift+Alt+N, and Shift+Alt+T hotkeys to resize the game window were not deactivated when not using a Window Layout.
Q9 How do I turn off the frame rates at the top left of each window?
A9 In the toolkit, in the top left pane, expand Character Sets. Then select your character set. In the bottom right window are checkable options. One of those (third from the bottom) reads: Hide FPS (framerate) indicator. Check that, and the FPS will disappear from the top left of each window.
Q10 Do I need to have the ISBoxer addon enabled since it's out of date (The FAQ doesn't address this question)?
A10 Yes, and it's out of date because ISBoxer needs to be updated on your PC.
Thanks!
