Check out the window types, Nik. You can set a variety of window types,
modal, etc.
"0 Movable, Sizable, No Zoom",
"1 Alert Box or Modal",\
"2 Plain Box, No Title",
"3 Plain Box w/Shadow, No Title",\
"4 Movable w/o Size or Zoom",
"5 Movable Modal",
"8 Standard Document",\
"12 Zoomable Non-Resizable",
"16 Rounded Corner",
"49 Floating Palette, Authoring"
Give those a try...I'm pretty sure one of them will keep the stage from
coming to front. I know what you are trying to do is possible...I've done
things with several navigation panels that were MIAW's which sat on top of
the stage the entire time.
