I notice alt-tab doesn't switch focus from the game. I have to mouse over the window title bars and use the scrollwheel to escape.

I don't recognize the option that's causing the window to behave this way.
 
From my experience using i3 and sway, they are tiling window managers and don't come with Alt + Tab support by default. You'll need to install some other extensions to them to use alt tab functionality. This isn't a problem of cnc-ddraw. You can also try editing the `ddraw.ini` file to run it in borderless window mode and see if that helps. Good luck!
 
I've been using i3wm for a while and already had alt+tab configured. Just out of all windows, it's Diablo II that's fighting / won't switch. I don't think a borderless window config for cnc-ddraw will help. (It's already one of the keybinds in i3.)
 
Hmm not sure then, probably will need to ask cnc-ddraw folks.
