As Zeljko pointed out, you have uncovered a bug. If it is not addressed 
in trunk, you should raise the issue in the Mantis bugtracker so it gets 
nailed. Then unsatisfactory workarounds would not be needed.

[Lazarus] Always On Top (Linux) ZVDatetimeCtrls doesn't show up(Bug?)

2014-04-13 Thread Allan E. Registos
Hi all, 

A minor issue in Linux. 

In linux, we have this privileged to keep a certain application window on top 
of any window by right-clicking the top bar and click Always On Top from the 
context menu. 
Now I have this date/time control, I am using the date time picker from the 
package: ZVDatetimeCtrls. When I enable the window Always On Top', the date 
picker no longer pops-up because it was behind the application window(being 
always on top). 

Using ZVDatetimeCtrls 1.4. Not using the latest trunk for it was still the same 
version 1.4. 

It is easy to test this in your Linux, put a datetime picker from 
ZVDatetimeCtrls in your form and run, then enable / disable Always On Top. 


Regards, 
Allan
