First, thank you very much for your detailed response. In this case, most of the answers weren't needed, but many times they are. I think you are the first person to actually answer all the questions :thumbsup: 
Yeah, SaT has no knowledge of your all-in hotkey that is from the Stars client. To tell SaT about that, you would set up an "External VPIP hotkey" matching the same key within SaT.
In SaT, the "Shift" key is actually the plus sign "+". So set up an External VPIP key for +A. You will notice that SaT will automatically add the "~" prefix, which tells SaT to not completely take over this hotkey, but to also pass the key stroke through to other programs.

I would have suggested using a "Bet x bb" hotkey in SaT. And choose something large like 999999 bb's. But that hotkey doesn't work on Bodog. I will investigate and see if theres anything I can do about that for the future
That may be a better way, simply because I always advise players to visually confirm any bets that an external software inputs into the box, BEFORE pressing the bet button. This is just safer imo.
However, if you are losing focus on the active table, you can turn on SaT's "Highlight active window" feature in Advanced Options, to give you a visual guide of which window has focus.
I also usually recommend players simply send the hotkeys to the table underneath the mouse instead of the active table, for this very reason. But I guess if you're on gamepad then thats tough.
How are you "calling all in" ? Mouse click? Hotkey? If hotkey, which hotkey? SaT's? Stars?

This does not seem to occur when using hotkeys that are assigned in the SaT client, or when manually clicking buttons. I expect that when I go all in, SaT should recognize that I've entered the pot, and move the table to the grid as it does with most other (or all) actions/hotkeys.
When it's my turn to act, I click a button on my control pad which sends the keys "shift + A" to the active window. Stars picks this up, and bets all in for me. SaT does not appear to detect any action and will keep the table stacked.

Hotkey Questions:
Is there a way I can set up a "bet all-in" hotkey for Bodog? Currently I have to hold the slider button until my bet is maxed, and then click the raise button. I would like to go all in with just one key combination instead of several.
Also, is there a way to move the "bet all in" hotkey function from Stars to SaT? That may well solve my issue.

EDIT: On a side note, perhaps this is a more desirable way to function, since I do occasionally lose focus on the active table and bet all-in mistakenly, either through my fault or the software's.
