I have a stub executable which opens its own window and then opens a stack (so I now have two windows). On the non-executable stack is a graphic that acts as a button to ask for a password.

On a Mac, the ask window opens and is attached to the non-stub stack window as expected. However, on Windows the ask dialog is linked (i.e. modal) to the stub window not the correct window even though that window is the frontmost window. The expected window is locked waiting for a response but the user can't see the ask dialog because it is hidden behind and is associated with the stub. If I move the windows around or bring the stub application forward then I can see and click on the ask dialog and everything works. If I don't click on the stub window then I never see the ask dialog box and can't ever get out of it.

On Windows, even though the stack with the graphic is the frontmost window, if I click on that "frontmost" window before clicking on the graphic then it works as expected and the ask dialog correctly comes up and works.

Is there a Rev command to bring the window to the front? For example in AppleScript the command is "activate".

I don't see a similar command in Rev.
