Follow-up Comment #12, bug #27667 (project xboard): With topLevel the window still pops up in front of the board (at least with my Xlibs), it only doesn't resist to go behind later, just like good old AnalysisWindow. Your screen also seems to be much larger than mine, because I can't do without overlapping. PV lines can get very long, so further enlarging the window is often necessary.
To me transientShell seems to be the mode for windows that require immediate user action within, before normal operation can continue (error/promotion popup/File Name Prompt). This goes to my private patch list then. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?27667> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Bug-XBoard mailing list Bug-XBoard@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-xboard
