Two programs running at the same time
« on: August 03, 2006, 04:38:45 pm »
Is it possible to have Ivac and IVAP running at the same time, but I don't mean IVAI. What I mean is you've already got IVAI running, and you've got the tower view and Ivac, but is it possible to have both windows in one without all this switching?

I managed to get FS running, and have IVAC at a good size and still see everything running, so I had FS runnning and IVAC, but because Ivac was the active program, FS was paused, and obviously, things stutter when you go online paused, so when I clicked on FS to make it normal, Ivac disappeared. Is there any way to get Ivac running with FS, without making FS pause?

Umm... You can turn off "Pause FS when it looses focus" (not called exactly that, but that's what it's talking about...) and that'll stop the pausing when you Alt+Tab away from FS.

As far as having FS and IVAC on-screen at the same time, only things I can suggest are either (a) a widescreen monitor or (b) a dual-monitor setup.

Questo? Turn off "Pause FS when..."? If memory serves it's in the General settings in FS
