MaLa looses focus after exiting a game

[steveggz]

MaLa looses focus every time after I exit a game. I need to left click my mouse in order to gain back focus to choose another game.
I downloaded the plug-in on MaLa's website that is suppose to keep focus but it doesn't work.

Does anyone know a solution for this?

Im using xp 64 bit with groovymame and the newest version of MaLa. **This also happens on anther computer running xp 32bit.

Yeah. I had the same issue. It's been talked about in the forum here. Do a search or read here:

I solved the same issue by installing the latest BETA version of MALA.
MUCH MUCH better with the whole focus problem. The focus issue seemed to be one of the main issues for it's existence.
I'm using Win 7 - 64 bit.

Another option is Empardopo's program "AllInOne" where you can tell MALA to keep focus on certain program's (emulators, Mala, etc).

Again, the BETA fixed it for me...that's my suggestion. Good luck.

Thanks Wade007. Im going to try that right away.

Perhaps, using AllInOne you have the advantage that you can map 1 or 2 buttons/keys to focus the MALA's program or another program you want!
