Triggering inputs without window focus

[kazmadan]

I'm not sure if this is intended or not, but once I have run gimx from the launcher, though everything works properely, if I tab out or click out of the gimx.exe window, it stops functioning. If I try to regain focus of the window, it still wont accept inputs until I close it and re-start.

This seems like a pretty obvious question so I apologize if it's been answered somewhere already but I checked the wiki and other threads, didn't see anything about it.

I'm running this on Win 7 using a DIY USB and keyboard (Physical Device)

There's actually a non-documented feature that allows to release/capture the mouse pointer. While gimx is started, press Alt Left+Alt Right. This releases the mouse pointer, and allows to use the mouse and keyboard for other tasks. When you want to play again, select the "ManyMouseRawInputMsgWindow" window and press Alt Left+Alt Right again to capture the mouse pointer.
