Title: Minimize in OSX?
Post by: Sololop on February 10, 2009, 03:13:16 pm

I cannot minimize FS2. Im using the latest nightly build for OSX, and when its open, command+tab, command+M, function+command+M, or trying to toggle between spaces does nothing. It's frustrating when I need to close FS2 to do anything else.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

I think there is a problem with leaving and going back to full screen on OS X.  You might try running in windowed mode, although even then I've had trouble getting the mouse back under my control.  I'm not much of a Mac user though so I probably haven't tried everything.

I can try windowed mode, although in Parallels desktop with WinXP, running FS in a window had, as you said, weird mouse recapturing issues.

I'm confused, are you running Windows FS2 through Parallels on OS X?  Then I'm not sure if minimize works then either but the mouse capturing in Windows works fairly well in windowed mode.

Yeah, I wasn't too clear.

I'm running FS2 with OSX. I did, however, in the past, use it through Parallels with winXP due to being confused on installing onto a mac. When I was using Windows, however, I could minimize it via alt-tab.

In OSX nothing seems to work. Just an annoyance is all.
