No, Delphi 7 keeps StayOnTop windows on top always (it simply sets the HWND_TOPMOST attribute to the window). I think that there is a confusion about the StayOnTop and the "float over same application forms" options. The "float" one was added in Delphi 2005 (I think) but I can not recall the name.

Current implementation drives crazy the Windows window manager and "corrupts" the internal win windows stack, in fact I had removed that code from my own LCL compilation to avoid such problems. The buggy effect is that when you have in example 3 windows stacked as 1, 2, 3 and you click in "2", "2" comes to front (as expected) but the new stack order is 2, 3, 1 instead 2, 1, 3 (which is the expected). Calls to setwindowlong when application is being activated or deactivated seems to become windows crazy. -- Best regards, JoshyFun _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
