apologies keary,

on reread, my question is badly cast: i should have read it the same as you.

the issue is:

i have an overlay (created programmatically  w/ NSBorderlessWindowMask) at the 
top of my document view; after switching to full screen setFrame disregards my 
requested rect (without log emission) & adjusts to a max below the menu 
drop-down area. best coding practice suggests (to me) an arithmetical level 
adjustment like document-window-level plus one, but this does not attain. 
kCGOverlayWindowLevel does the trick, but kCGStatusWindowLevel is lower on the 
list & i wondered what class of window is intended at this level.

thanks for your response!
edward
