Tab appearance issue

from Stardock Forums

I configured tab appearance to show on active windows. I grouped some notepad windows. When the notepad window loses focus (I click on taskbar) then the tabs disappear, so issues.

But, when I click a notepad window to make it active then the grouoy tabs are not shown automatically when notepad window is active. I have to hover at the top of notepad windows to make groupy tabs appear. It would be useful if groupy tabs are shown automatically when a window gets focus or becomes active instead of user hovering to make tabs appear.

Also, it would be nice to have a user configurable hotkey in groupy to show/hide groupy tabs.

Thanks Basj. I cannot do a video or screenshot right now, but I'll simplify my question.

I configured tab appearance to show on active windows.

I have 3 notepad windows grouped in groupy. I am working in first notepad (tab #1) which is the active window. I click on windows taskbar causing notepad window to lose focus and groupy tabs on notepad windows are hidden as expected.

Now, I click the first notepad window so that it gets focus and it becomes active, but the groupy tabs are not shown automatically. I have to hover above the titlebar to make tabs appear.

See, I expected the tabs to appear when first notepad window became active.

Still need to know you on Windows 10 or 11? and its full version numbers. and Groupy version number. Once I know that, if I can, I will try to reproduce your issue on my system.

Thank you,
