I honestly would recommend updating even though you don't want to do it. I don't think adjusting delay settings will help any with losing focus. Perhaps it is losing focus to your hud or the TT HUD somehow. Go to Settings/HUD/Misc and turn on Disable HUD.
You can set a hotkey for Most Urgent in Queue to global by clicking on the gear next to the hotkey until we figure out what the problem is.
Ok Daniel, I think I figured out the cause of the problem. First of all, Hotkey for Most Urgent in Queue has been set to global for years now, Pop to front is turned off in client settings and all clients are set to be run as admin. I disabled the HUD in TT settings, no difference. I also downloaded and tried latest beta version (1.6.1), also made no difference.
But like I said, I have figured the source of the problem The source of the problem is the POS 888 software. Essentially what happens is that 888 tables for some unbeknownst reason silently pop up at random times and steal focus.
I know because with both PS and 888 tournament tables open, I tried cycling forward and backwards. Once I closed the 888 client, I had no problems cycling forward and backward on PS tables. Once I closed PS and opened 888 tournament tables, cycling forward and backward became buggy again; once focus was stolen and I wasn't able to cycle through tables, as soon as I clicked on a table, I was able to cycle through until the problem arose again. Once 888 tournaments went to a break and there were no active tables, I was able to cycle through tables without a hitch.
I don't know what kind of solution you can come up with. Maybe you can alter some of 888 settings on Table Tamer or the way it deals with 888.
One solution that springs into mind is if you give TT users the option of having an automatic mouse click on an empty part of the screen in regular time intervals. That may be dangerous because it might cause bugs in other programs however. There should be some thought put behind it and users should be careful in deploying it.
