SendBackWindow-FKEY.
Version 1.0.
Copyright © 1995 by Rickard Andersson.
All Rights Reserved.
Shareware, pay $5 fee.
WHAT IS IT
The "SendBackWindow-FKEY" is a FKEY that should work in all applications that
handles windows in correct way. "SendBackWindow-FKEY" is easy to use.
Press the shift+command+5 key combination to send the frontmost window to the
back of the window list. Continue to do this until the window you want to see
becomes the frontmost. This will unfortunately not work for dialogs.
INSTALLATION
First I would like to mention that the "SendBackWindow-FKEY" is supplied with
resource ID 5. You can of course change the ID to avoid conflict with already
installed FKEYs. Installing a FKEY can be done in a couple of ways.
* Use EasyKeys to assign a key combination for execution of the fkey.
* Use some other kind of FKEY executor, like OtherMenu or FkeyStrip.
* Use a specialised FKEY installer, to install the FKEY into the System file.
* Use a general resource tool, like Suitcase, MasterJuggler, or Carpetbag.
* Put the FKEYs suitcase into the Font folder in the System folder. If you
already have a FKEYs suitcase in your Font folder you can use ResEdit to
paste the "SendBackWindow-FKEY" resource into it.
* Use ResEdit to paste the "SendBackWindow-FKEY" resource into your System file.
WHY DOESN'T IT WORK
* The FKEY doesn't work if the frontmost window is a modal dialog/window.
* Some applications don't use the right sort of window in some circumstances.
So the windows looks like regular windows to the user, put says they are modal
dialogs/windows to the FKEY.
FUTURE FEATURES
* Ability to move the second window from the front to the back, if the frontmost
window is a modal dialog/window.
