Difficulties alt - tabbing?

Have you ever been editing in ArmA and then Alt-Tab to edit your script, only to flip back and find Armed Assault non responsive? Your not alone!  Many people developing scripts and addons in Armed Assault use the -window trick. 

You need to set your ArmA short cut to run in window mode. Simply add -window to your short cut:

"C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA\arma.exe"  -nosplash -window

This will give you a default window of  800x600. Most people will want to extend this size to atleast 1024x768. To do this you need to open up your ArmA.cfg file and change the references for:

 

winW=1023;
winH=768;
winDefW=1023;
winDefH=768;
