Virtual Window Locks Up X Plane 11.05

Hello.

When i bring any window into the cockpit... chrome, IE, airserver, it shows up in VR but I can no longer use the mouse to control things in the cockpit. I get an "hour glass" icon on the X Plane screen and control is locked up until I remove the virtual window from the cockpit. Is there a setting I need to change to allow use of the mouse when virtual windows are being used?

Thanks
Bambino

The virtual window works much better in 11.10b5 - it is easier to position and easier to manipulate things in the window. I use Little NavMap and I can zoom and pan it now. The connection is a little buggy and sometimes I need to turn it off and then reload it. But it is MUCH better.

still having the problem. worked for awhile then froze XP. i should point out that the window I want to import is the pop-out chat window when streaming. This is a chrome window. also, i've upgraded to the latest FI release. thanks
