Contents
Availability
This hint is available since SDL 3.2.0.
Simple Directmedia Layer SDL 3.2.10 SDL_HINT_ALLOW_ALT_TAB_WHILE_GRABBED(3)
Description
By default, SDL emulates Alt+Tab functionality while the keyboard is grabbed and your window is full-
screen. This prevents the user from getting stuck in your application if you've enabled keyboard grab.
The variable can be set to the following values:
• "0": SDL will not handle Alt+Tab. Your application is responsible for
handling Alt+Tab while the keyboard is grabbed.
• "1": SDL will minimize your window when Alt+Tab is pressed (default)
This hint can be set anytime.
