I have a little application written in Delphi which will stay on top of my web browser to give me a count down time for ebay auctions!
I think that the correct behaviour is that if the main form is fsStayOnTop then the application should stay on top of other applications. If the main form is not fsStayOnTop then it can be hidden by another application which has focus. Within the application, fsStayOnTop forms just stay top of other forms subject to my comment in this bug report http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=11977 regards Leslie Luca Olivetti wrote: > <div class="moz-text-flowed" style="font-family: -moz-fixed">En/na > Paul Ishenin ha escrit: > >> There was bug reports about StayOnTop forms before that they must not >> stay on top if another application is active.
