Yup, I got to the same page :) > Pretty. But I don't see why that has to be (or would want to be) MDI. > I don't much care for the MDI idiom, I admit.

Non-modal seems to do the trick. I managed to disable the border and it looks just like without set_non_modal. Without adding the windows to MainWin I can show them with just one call to show(). I just had to tweak my Fl_DragBox widget a bit to accommodate the lack of parent window. The only thing that bugs me a little is that now the windows can move outside of MainWin. No biggie.
