About stealing browser focus #36

Closed chenglou closed 10 years ago

chenglou commented 10 years ago

Is the current focus stealing strategy is limited to --record? I see the actual screen shots are taken from a window behind the one in which I operated, as to remove input focus, etc. But when running in any other mode no such focus stealing is being done, which makes the screenshots taken during recording useless since they'll always be different than one the taken by those other modes.

Well, it's done during re-record and playback so we can consistently record without focus. The screenshots from the original record were always useless.

What I mean is for --playback-only and plain huxley, the dummy browser window doesn't show up.
