Alt-Tab replacement power toy

#1

Hi all,

I’ve found out Sublime doesn’t play well with the Alt-Tab power toy available here for download:

microsoft.com/windowsxp/Down … rtoys.mspx

This power toy creates a preview of the window that you’re going to switch to and the rendering of this image is patchy (it doesn’t render fully) and it becomes sluggish when Sublime is running.

The solution is to just uninstall it, no biggie for me personally.

Thanks,
Lorenzo

Thanks for letting me know: It may be better if you run Sublime Text with --opengl on the command line

True, it works grand with --opengl, I replaced it across all my shortcuts.

You could probably have the installer produce the shortcuts with --opengl by default

Yeah I think I’ll change to --opengl by default, it seems to be less problematic that Direct3d in general, at least on XP.
