This only happens within the IDE. It is also somewhat intermittent. The problem occurs about 75% of the time and sometimes just happens to behave as I would think. It appears to happen right after I load a project or create a new one. It seems to work if I just let it open the last known project and just work with it.

Just to elaborate its not only "sticky" its also "always on top". The latter makes it even more frustrating because the code window won't let anything in front, in Lazarus or outside. If some important dialog ends up popping up its invariably hidden by the code editor making me think that Lazarus has crashed until I remember to shade or minimize the editor window.

It also makes it difficult to work with other tools in the IDE as it generally overlaps the other windows and won't let me at them unless I do something to move the code editor out of the way.

I hope this helps.

What is up with the editor window staying always on top and sticky? Its 
been that way for the last few updates I've grabbed from svn. Its making 
things very difficult when the silly thing follows me from desktop to 
desktop.
    

It is not sticky, on any window manager I tried. Is this only with the IDE
or any LCL application?


  
How can I turn this settings off? I've tried to control it 
through my window manager and it just ignores the settings. I also 
didn't see anything obvious in the preference settings.
