Do you get a window flash, or does it look like nothing changed?



Sarah,

Yes, there's a flash as the stack comes to the front for an instance before the dialog is forced to the front again.

And there appears to be a bug where clicking in a stack's title bar causes the stack to come to the front but no resumeStack message is fired, so the dialog gets stuck behind. I guess I'll have to keep calling "go to stack" inside the progress dialog to force it to the front...ugh.

It would be so much easier if a frontscript could completely trap mouseDown events. Or if there were a "mostly-modal" dialog property where the dialog is modal, but scripts keep running.
