Re: Newbie question :)

This is a screenshot of the Window Layout Regions editor. After using the wizard to generate a Window Layout (pick the closest thing to what you want), select your Window Layout in the top left pane, then click "Regions" in the bottom left pane, and you'll be looking at it

Re: 7 regions / 6 games / main window can be desactivate?

Yes.

1. In the Window Layout Style picker select one with the "Leave Hole" option, which I believe you have shown.
2. After setting up your Window Layout using one of the wizards, select your Window Layout in the top left pane
3. In the bottom right change the "Swap Hot Character to main region" box to "always" instead of "always, for game windows". (Or any of the options besides "always, for game windows" but the others you will need to set up additional options)
4. Export to Inner Space

The "for game windows" bit makes the swapping behavior only happen when you're switching between your game windows. By removing that, your active window can go to its "Home" when you click on your browser, etc.


p.s. you spammed with a new post anyway. ;)

Re: Newbie question :)

Raising the level of my question again :P

The region 1, the big one, when its not being used, its rendering(or whatever it is called) its using my gfx card to that spot that is not being used? Just curious to know that becouse the swap is so damn fast and i still cant belive in that :P

thanks again

Re: Newbie question :)

Each game instance will use the roughly same amount of GPU in Region 1 as it will in Regions 2 through 7, yes. It will render its size as if it were in Region 1, and then scale to the new size (which could even be bigger, instead of the smaller views we usually use).
