IDEA: Need a tool to hotkey mouse or keyboard to focus a window

<< < (2/2)

IainB:
I use Win+<number> to set focus of the required window.
Obviously I do not run more than 9 programs at a time.

@anandcoral. Thank you for reminding; I only remembered, when I read it.

^ maybe point out that it's RightWin+UpperNumbers  Well, on my desktop anyway

Here's the initial release. Unless somebody comes up with a better name, it's currently called WHAT (Window Hotkey Activator Tool).  Here's a couple of screenshots:

Notes:

* The matching comprises the following criteria: process name, window title, and window class.  You will almost certainly have to play around a bit with the text to get certain windows to activate and, even then, some may not.  Furthermore, you do not need to use all three criterion for a given hotkey.  Don't be afraid to experiment.
* While the add/edit hotkey dialog is open, all hotkeys are disabled.  They are enabled after you click the save button or close the add/edit hotkey dialog.
* Checkboxes in the main list enable and disable individual hotkeys.
* You can assign the same hotkey to multiple entries and it will activate all the windows in top-down order.  You can easily change the order in the list.
* Check out the Options menu for a few usability options.
* The hotkey selection GUI is such that you can use just about any combination of keys, mouse buttons, and modifiers.  Go crazy.

Once we get closer to the turn of the year, I'll add this to the 2018 NANY page.   :Thmbsup:

Excellent  :Thmbsup:
I suggest to add option 'Always on top' to have additional benefit for a window.
