Hi Tim,
I did another test so I want to add this to my previous message.
It appears that when all my windows are in "SloppyFocus", everything works fine. So you guessed right thinking that the problem was related with the focus method. But I still don't understand why it doesn't work when I'm in "ClickToFocus" which is the focus method I would like to use.
Cheers,
Denis
