I have one monitor. I use CoTASA with Condor2, which works fine. I tried using XCSOAR too but I can't make it stay on top of Condor as CoTASA does.
I tried changing the video option in Condor, i.e., Windowed, fullscreen, etc. but nothing seems to work.
Any suggestion would be appreciated.

XCSOAR on top of Condor2
Re: XCSOAR on top of Condor2
CoTASA has been programmed to be always on top.
If it's not the case with XCSoar (which I think), Condor will move on top when taking focus and XCSoar will remain below.
The only workaround is to run Condor in windowed mode on a part of the screen and put XCSoar beside it.
XCSoar is available on Android and doesn't require huge resources, I would recommend to use it it on a mobile phone or a tablet.

Re: XCSOAR on top of Condor2
Hello Gary
You need to use fullscreen emulation in C2 settings + small app which brings any other app to front.
I use 'AlwaysOnTopMaker' select XCSoar window and than ctrl+alt+t to set XCSoar to be on top. But there are many similar tools.
You can also try to use AutoHotkey script.

Hello,
I downloaded and tried, "AlwaysOnTopMaker" software. It worked!
Thanks for the information. I don't know if I would have ever found this.
Thanks,

Hello Gary
Glad it works.
XCSoar with removed titlebar and borders looks even better on top of C2.
For scripts below you need AutoHotkey.
[Left win key + left click on XCSoar to hide, left win key + right click on XCSoar to bring back caption]:
You can also change pages and zoom with keyboard shortcuts, without leaving Condor.
[Shift + right arrow next screen, shift + left arrow prev. screen; shift + arrow up - zoom in shift + arrow down - zoom out]:
Good luck
PS
Maybe some skilled programmer(s) could make installer for 'Condor's XCSoar' - running on the same monitor?
With C. oriented XCS preferences + few popular maps + Condor Task Converter (CoTaCo) and + polars from Marc Till + Null-modem emulator [com0com] + scripts above or better, etc etc - as one package. I can help a little with such project - but for sure, I am not able to do this myself. This would be a nice add-on to Condor (for some).
Well - but maybe indeed, as Marc wrote - using phone or tablet with android is faster, easier & better.
