Inactivity Timer not watching non-PWB windows

Hi Scott,

I am sure this was something that was resolved in v2 but does not seem to be in v3: When a window is open to another application, for example, a CD-ROM catalogue or a microfilm scanner/reader application, both of which we launch from PWB, the PWB inactivity timer does not detect keyboard or mouse activity in that window and carries out the InactivityAction despite the fact that the user has been active. Have I missed an .ini setting somewhere? If not, can you add activity detection in other windows to the PWB v3 features.

Many thanks,

Tim

My apologies, after posting the question I found again how it was done in v2 and the same method still seems to work with v3
