[Coco] Window switching bug in NitrOS9 3.3.0

[Bill Pierce]

Doug, I don't have a Coco3 setup at the moment, but with the VCC emulator and the Coco3FPGA, <Shift><Clear> moves through the windows in reverse order as it should. I am running one of the most recent builds of NitrOS9 3.3.0. Also, I use NitrOS9 with multiple windows open regularly. In fact, my normal boot opens 3 windows on startup, and I've not noticed a problem with this since 3.3.0 was released.
You may want to check with other keys and make sure your <Shift> key is working properly.

I've noticed that with NitrOS9 3.3.0 that when you have more than one device window open only the Clear key works in switching to the next window. You should be able to use Shift-Clear to select the previous window but it behaves like the Clear key. When I ran NitrOS9 1.22 the clear key and shift clear key behaved as normal to switch between device windows. Where are the routines that control switching between device windows in the source code?  I believe this to be a bug that should be addressed. DougSent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone.-- Coco mailing listCoco at maltedmedia.comhttps://pairlist5.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/coco
