Application Switching with UT2004

Is there any way to do switch to the finder/dock or hide the application instead of having to close it every time?  Even in windowed mode I can't actually access the finder.

Re: Application Switching with UT2004

First since you speak of windowed mode I presume that in your UT2004.ini under [SDLDrv.SDLClient] you have

WindowedViewportX=nnnn
WindowedViewportY=nnnn

set to parameters other than your full screen settings.

Second in game you can get in and out of windowed mode with <Option+Return>.

UT captures the cursor so once in windowed mode you need to <Command+Tab> to bring up Application Switcher to get out of UT to another app. Once in the Finder you can hide UT. When in windowed mode any time you go back to UT it will again capture the cursor. Also if you click on the UT window bar it will cature the cursor and move the window to where it thinks the cursor was when you were last in the window. If it moves it to an odd place just go into and out of full screen and the UT window will be back in the center of the screen.

Hope that helps.
