Default Prevent loss of focus

Is there a way to set the Artist Mix to prevent it from losing focus when you swap out of the main Protools window and have to work in a separate Window or application?

The PT Control app does this also. I would like to prevent this from happening so the faders and PT Control app stay focused on Protools if I have to work on something out side of Protools while Protools is still running.

In Eucontrol on your computer, go to the assign page. You'll see Lock to Application at the bottom. Select your program (bring the application to focus on your computer) you want to lock Eucon/Eucontrol to and it should show up next to "Application:" at the top of that Eucontrol tab. Then check the checkbox next to "Lock Application: Entire Surface" and that application name will be listed beside it.

Then all Eucon will be locked to that application even if you go to other applications on the computer. This will be remembered through restarts/closing opening the "locked to" application so if you need it to start moving to other apps, unlock it when you need to.

Thanks, I knew it had to be something simple.
