Activate Script Trigger on entering window

I don't really know what I'm missing here.

I have two windows next to each other. I want to activate a Script Trigger on Record Load (I have tried On Layout Enter as well) , and it does that fine as long as I'm only having one window open. But not when I'm switching between the windows. Ie, I want the script to run when I enter the Window.

Isn't this supposed to work?

If it did exist I suppose the script trigger would be

OnWindowSelect

The existing script triggers could be leveraged with the right techniques:

OnLayoutSizeChange, OnModeEnter, OnModeExit, OnViewChange however all of these require some kind of action WITHIN the window.

I don't think FM can determine that you have brought the window to the foreground.

It seems that way, yes, unfortunately.

Thanks for the input!
