The Qt4 GUI can bring the clicked VM window to focus. Looking at SDK I found: long long IMachine::showConsoleWindow()
But it lacks any example. My code: (python on Windows) ====================== from vboxapi import VirtualBoxManager mgr = VirtualBoxManager(None, None) vbox = mgr.vbox name = "Windows XP Motherimage" mach = vbox.findMachine(name) session = mgr.mgr.getSessionObject(vbox) progress = mach.launchVMProcess(session, "gui", "") progress.waitForCompletion(-1) import win32gui hwnd = mach.showConsoleWindow() win32gui.ShowWindow(int(hwnd), win32con.SW_RESTORE) win32gui.SetForegroundWindow(int(hwnd)) ====================== And It works ! On Linux, I have tried: ====================== >>> from PyQt4 import QtGui >>> xdisp = QtGui.QX11Info.display() ... but xdisp results in "NoneType" object. 1. How to fix it ? 2. Can the Main API be extended to incorporate all the necessary functionality ? (by passing handler of the currently active application to showConsoleWindow() or otherwise) It will make developer's life easier, and allow me to target more platforms, such as Mac, which I don't have, but GNS3 users use.
