NAME¶

SDL_HINT_ALLOW_ALT_TAB_WHILE_GRABBED - Specify the behavior of Alt+Tab while the keyboard is grabbed.

SYNOPSIS¶

#include <SDL3/SDL_hints.h>

#define SDL_HINT_ALLOW_ALT_TAB_WHILE_GRABBED "SDL_ALLOW_ALT_TAB_WHILE_GRABBED"

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.

AVAILABILITY¶

This hint is available since SDL 3.2.0.
