How to use“break and trace” when the target window must be foreground？ Does any Hotkey or lua can solve this？

B&T is using a normal breakpoint - you can ALT+TAB back to the game and CE will do its magic whenever the breakpoint is hit.
You might see the game hang for a moment when the breakboint is hit, depending on the number of instructions you want to trace.
Go back to CE and marvel at your trace.
I do this all the time, works very well.

Thanks. But Only when I press "J" while the window is foreground and then I use "break and trace" can I get the correct result. If I use "break and trace" before pressing "J", the target process will also break immediately (but not after pressing "J").
