Try the following, you will NOT be able to ALT-TAB correctly. If howover you don't have the first line it will. Surely this is a BUG in Blitz3d because it means that you cannot start an app in full screen then change it to windowed mode then allow the user to ALT-TAB.

IF you could do that you wouldn't need to have a launcher.
I can Alt-Tab and see other apps behind the Blitz window.
For example, right now I can see Internet Explorer and type this message, after I move the Blitz Window off to the side.
The problem seems to be that after starting full screen the Blitz window is always on top.
Floyd,
exactly!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So is there a solution to this or do you have to use a launcher (which I don't want to do!)
Thanks.
ERRRR.....Use a userlib winapi to disable the always ontop....
Or press minimize? Switching back and forth from full screen to windowed won't go down well on some GFX cards (particularly if they're running the destop in a perculiar fashion).
Still might be worth giving this a mention in the Blitz3D Bug Reports forum.
You tried using the EndGraphics command?
