i *believe* this is expected behavior. The fun part is when a dialog is open on another virtual screen the plasma panel STILL remains open and obscures things. I haven't found any way to determine WHICH application/window is holding the panel open, though, so i sometimes have to hunt on all of my virtual screens looking for a dialog. I do not know if there's a control that can toggle/disable this behavior, either, but it is common with how MS-Windows does it as well. The idea is that the system "knows better than you" what's important and needs your attention. (if only you could figure out *WHAT* the important thing is immediately. --stephen
