stop MPE popping into the front when Syncing

Beitrag von wireplay »

Hi,

Could you allow and option to stop MPE jumping to the front and taking keyboard focus when user interaction is required on a multi-sync.

I was just doing a Sync and was typing away in an email while it was running and MPE popped up asking me if I wanted to update a contact from outlook or my phone, but I hit return as I was typing my email EXACTLY at the same time MPE popped to the front.

The result, I changed something in MPE by hitting return and I may have updated the wrong record. It was also annoying as I had to jump back into my email - and the same happened on calendar events :-(

Cheers,

Chris.

The Sync-Confirmation SHOULD be visible cause it needs userinteraction. But you could set the Button-Focus to "Abort" - so that nothing happens if you did not want to Enter it

cool - i will try that, for me though, I would prefer to see it flashing in the start bar/task area so that I can deal with it when I am ready, not be forced into doing it.

this solution would be not enought i think. For some devices its important that the sync will be forwarded in less than 3 minutes. If you have many windows open maybe you don't realize it....

No, everybody who knows my way to work knowns also that i don't want to add an option for every tiny thing ;-)

I will think about the whole thing.... but a useroption is out of question.
