Im wondering if this is intentional? In my main game loop it sets my mouse position to the center of the screen....as it needs to for my app however when i alt tab and try switching focus to another app the mouse seems to stick from my dbp app in the same spot.

I didnt have this problem with xp or vista..... or maby this has been an alteration of one of the latest updates??

Anyone else notice this and is there a good way to detect if your app does not have focus so i can set it to kill the mouse from sticking? (this will be the best solution)

I cant think of the command right now as I've been awake for ages...
