Bringing the visible LC windows to the front after displaying seems to
work for me. Most of the time, anyway. Sometimes the backdrop appears on
my main monitor, sometimes on the other one. It's hard to predict which.
But the following script does the job of not hiding everything behind
the backdrop.
on bringLCtoFront
local tWindows
set the backdrop to "black"
put the windows into tWindows
repeat for each line tWindow in tWindows
if the visible of stack tWindow then
open stack tWindow
end if
end repeat
end bringLCtoFront
