It’s obviously been too long since I’ve done much work on the Window Manager. I completely forgot that we have an actual window class for always-floating windows - kOverlayWindowClass. So all you need to do is this: SetWindowGroup( yourWindow, GetWindowGroupOfClass( kOverlayWindowClass ) ); and that should keep your window above other windows regardless of app activation. -eric _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
