So this depends on two things: * The focus model you're using; * Creation time takes precedence over last focused window in terms of Next/Prev When I say "focus model", if you're using mousefocus then it is already implied that the ring of window will be ordered by creation time rather than last window focused which is the effect you're describing here -- this is also compounded by whether you use Flip or FlipFocus to shove the command, as FlipFocus will change the WindowList order, but it's out of scope here. For what you want though, it sounds like you want to keep the window ring in the order they were created, rather than having them jumbled up through last focused? If that's so you'll need to set the following: Style * !FPSortWindowlistByFocus If none of that is what you were after, then it might also just be a case of you needing to play about with "CirculateHit/CirculateSkip"; it's hard to tell from your description which you mean of this. -- Thomas Adam
