I think I know the answer to this one already, I'm just kind of hoping I'm wrong. -- |

Doesn't seem to work as advertised ... I'm to use SWITCH_BACKAMNESIA, yes? No effect. Should I be calling it anywhere in particular, like before or after set_gfx_mode()? -- |

For Windows, you need to call it after setting the graphics mode. -- |

You should use both, SWITCH_BACKAMNESIA and SWITCH_BACKGROUND. Which one works depends on your operative system and whether the application is fullscreen or just windowed. -- |

They work the same way on those platforms. -- Ryan Patterson - <http://cgamesplay.com/> |

Got an Allegro program running in windowed mode, animation runs in the background ... I click on another window and all animation ceases (as is expected). Is there a way to get the program to be constantly running aund refreshing the window even without focus, or do I need to get all Win32 on it?
Works perfectly now; thanks.
