Could anyone kindly tell me how to make aka.leapmotion keep tracking when Max is in background?

I use a Leap Motion to send MIDI CC from Max to Ableton Live.

Hi Masa, I don't think it's possible with Max in the background. (or at least I can't find any option in the object or its source code to allow this.)

If you make a device that has the aka.leapmotion object then M4L will use it. (that is, it will appear to be in the front)

This link is somewhat related; it provides a way of bringing the Max application into focus.

I'm planning to learn C language to tweak aka.leapmotion.

That is a nice practical solution.
