Be able to minimize the virtual app to check messages etc and still be in the ride
The biggest thing I noticed between virtual and the app I was previously using was in the other app I could minimize it and check my messages or look something up and I was still in my workout. In virtual every time I minimized the app, it kicked me out of my workout and went back to the beginning. I used prescribed workouts from my coach and this was a bummer.

Thank you for your suggestion, and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
You can already set up the application to enable running in a Windowed mode (which will allow you to use other Windows in the background). From the Main Menu, select "Graphics Settings" > "Screen Mode" > "Windowed".

To add to this thread, I was using the TPVirtual app on a windows laptop last night, and wanted to be able to watch a bike race in another window. The only way I could work out how to do this was to switch windows using the keyboard, which was annoying as I'm cycling on rollers. It would be good to be able to either have a minimized screen for TPVirtual or to have the ability to have both windows visible at the same time. Many thanks for the good work.
