restore screen from minimize using keys rather than mouse
« on: June 22, 2021, 03:11:08 PM »
Using VR my screen sometimes minimizes and I can left click on the AH icon which restores it.  However, very time consuming to do that while in VR.  Is there a key stroke or strokes that will do the same thing?  Looked in the key board command listing and did not find anything.

You can map one of your sticks buttons to activate the right button on your mouse.

Probably, but cursor still had to be over the icon.  I tried leaving the cursor over the icon, but it only takes a little movement to move it off.  Key strokes would be better.

The reason for VR minimizing may well be some background activity like a Windows announcement that flashes in the corner and can then be found under the rectangular speech bubble icon bottom right. If that's the case, Alt+Tab should take you back to the game or whatever program you have running.

I've got an older system by today's standards that still runs the game well by my standards.
