Refocus Resonic, when minimized, but started again

I have set Resonic to a hotkey "Ctrl+Shift+L". If I minimize Resonic and press this hotkey, it seems like Resonic trys to start another instance, but nothing happens then. So it seems like Resonic knows that it can just run once and does not start a new instance? But it does not come to the front / it does not get focus. It just stays minimized, unfortunately.

Maybe this could be added (or in case it's a bug --> fixed :P)

Thanks for readdidng and have a nice evening! ;)

Best,
Manu

Re: Refocus Resonic, when minimized, but started again

The new update (0.9b, build 1662 - thanks for this update!) seems to get closer to the issue here, maybe even fix it and it's a bug or user error?

The things is:
When minimized to taskbar or minimized to tray and starting Resonic again it just blinks in my taskbar and the bottom of the screen, but it does not come to the front and get focus. Am I doing something wrong? Maybe some bad Windows settings here?

You're right, the running instance won't get moved to the foreground. We'll try to have this working properly in the next update.

Sorry that I gave no feedback: the issue seems resolved. Resonic gets focus now, when started, while it is minimized. Thanks!

Ps: It's slightly with latency though ... maybe it's a windows related issue? When startign Resonic it takes 1-2 seconds, before it comes to the foreground. No big deal, though!

Restoring from a minimized state should be faster than initially starting Resonic. It might get slightly faster in the next release, we changed method by which multiple instances communicate with each other.
