Regain Window Focus with button checked

alihor · 2026-10-14T12:01:14Z

Hi John, I have 5 monitors and I run MSFS 2020 with FSUIPC7. Monitor 1 is the primary window for MSFS. On Monitor 1-4 I have cockpit panels and charts. Now my point: when I am in Monitor 3 (e.g.) and want to change with a controler button the view, then I have to select with the mouse first the primary monitor window, and then click the button for view change. With my StreamDeck (SD) I have a plug in called "Windows Mover (BarRaider)" and this plugin selects with my configuration the primary window. In SD I have then programed a sequence "Focus Monitor 1" and click "View change". Question: How can I implement that with FSUIPC? rgd Alhard

↑ Yes, " key presses should always get sent to the FS window" this is exactly what is not working!
I am not sure that this is what is happening, especially without seeing evidence, i.e. your log showing the issue, so please provide this. And I will check here (next week).

Just did a quick test of this here, and when I click a button assigned to a key press, the focus changes from whatever app/window has the focus (on any screen) to the FS main window and stays there. So I think something else is happening and I need to see your logs with the button press event. If the button press isn't logged, it is the button press that isn't being seen...
