New Question about .. Running multiple zmud instances
 
How would I go about doing this? I would like to have an alt+tab feature to switch back and forth between characters rather then having to click on each window (tabbed view.)

Any advice?

Yeah, thats not what I'm looking for.

I want to open the program twice, so I have it two times in my taskbar. (WIN XP)

That way I can ALT+TAB and switch between characters.

Go to View--->preferences---> general
inside there go to Windows
Click on the box "use ALT for docking"
accept
now drag one of your chars window to a side
it should be floating, with a new task bar created for it

Only one of the windows in the taskbar actually says the characters name, the first window only.

The 2nd and 3rd window are blank. I've checked the files and they appear to be the same..

What am I missing?


Thanks!

I think they show the window name on each, should change that and you'd be set. New chars might not have a name for main window.
Click on a current window
#NAME Character2
that should change its name to Character2
