Folks,
My biggest annoyance of MC is that whenever it is
maximized on the TV it immediately sets capture on
the cursor. You can't take the mouse off the TV.
This leads to some really annoying conditions.
1. If you don't have another app open to Alt-Tab to,
you have to unmaximize MC before you can get
to your desktop with a mouse.
2. Even if you have another app open as soon as
you minimize it, focus goes to MCE and your mouse
disappears from your computer. Alt-Tab needed
again.
3. There is no way to close down a maximized MC
from the desktop. If you turn your TV off... you can't
close down MC from your desktop. Even the task
bar menu is disabled on the application. i.e. you must
turn on your TV and close down MC from there.
I'm just curious, but how do other folks get around
these. Half the time, I end up just unmaximizing MC
and dragging it to nearly full screen. This is time consuming
and annoying. Unfortunately, it always opens full screen.
If the TV wasn't next to the computer, I can't see how
anyone could work on your computer with the TV
on.
I can't figure why MC captures the cursor when full
screen or why it disables the menu on the task bar when
full screen?
Thanks,
BW
