which is inconvenient when the firefox window is large and obscures the acrobat window (if part of it will be visible I could move the pointer into it to give focus). All this is likely to be even more unconvenient in the case I'm thinking of (making a presentation based on firefox and acroread). Well, apparently I've found a very simple solution (without changing any of my other autofocus stuff) Style "AcroRead" StartsRaised, FPGrabFocus I noticed that the sequence was : - firefox has focus I click on URL - popup "opening xxx.pdf" appears AND GETS FOCUS I click OK - acroread window appears behind the firefox window (or in front but soon moves behind) and HAS NO FOCUS. The FPGrabFocus gives focus to it, and this is enough to keep it on top of the browser window ! Thanks anyhow to all. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lucio Chiappetti - INAF/IASF - via Bassini 15 - I-20133 Milano (Italy) For more info : http://www.iasf-milano.inaf.it/~lucio/personal.html ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
