I'm not very good at bitwise fields, but a quick google turns up this if you want to ensure that your dialog is always on top. (QDialog dervies publicly from QWidget.) QWidget::setWFlags(Qt::WType_Dialog | Qt::WStyle_Customize | Qt::WStyle_StaysOnTop); So, is the negation of that: QWidget::setWFlags(Qt::WType_Dialog | Qt::WStyle_Customize & Qt::WStyle_StaysOnTop); -- Angus
