Window auto refocus?
 
I've done some extensive searching of past topics and can't seem to find an answer quite suited to this. I have my main mud window and then several channel-specific windows. Focus works fine with capturing info etc but when i click the tab to see whats happening on another channel focus is changed to that window. What I need is a trigger, either global or one to put in each window, that refocuses on the main window when it loses focus. The channel windows sometimes don't recieve info after i switch to them so some trigger that fires off any info going to that window doesn't really work. Any suggestions?
thanks

You could try this. In each of your Channel windows, create an Expression trigger
Pattern: %window != "<Name of Main Window>"
Commands: <Name of Main Window>:#noop

That should set the refocus back to your main window.

Oh- had some trouble with this as I wasn't familiar with expression triggers, but I have it set to an expression trigger but it doesn't seem to be working quite like I want. When I click a tabbed channel window focus remains on it. If, however, I click on say, triggers, then the expression trigger fires and focus is set to main window. Any suggestions?
