I'm a recent convert to BTT; I've been a BetterSnapTool user for ages. I'm still trying to get my footing with the software, but one of the critical things I use in BST just doesn't seem to work the same in BTT. Specifically, the extras section of BST, I have configured like this:

I couldn't find that menu in BTT, so I tried my best to configure it using rules:

Unfortunately, this doesn't work the same, in a few subtle but critical ways -- firstly, if the hover "Move & Resize" actions window on the green button show up (which I sometimes use), the right click no longer works (it gives me a system bell in error) so no action is taken. I think it's also trying to pass through the right click, in a way that the BST setup has an explicit toggle for -- those two issues may be interrelated. Thirdly, if I click on another window's buttons, one that isn't frontmost... the tiling is applied to the currently-frontmost window.

BST had none of these issues, and it's a real bummer. I'd rather not have to run both all the time just to get this one feature to work, but it's a pretty critical aspect of my workflow; is there something I'm missing/another way to implement these actions?

So solve this you can add the "Activate/Bring to Front Window Under Cursor" Action before your Window Tilling Actions.
