Anyone solved how to bring a stack window to the top on the desktop after a file dragDrop?
1. drop files 2. bring stack window to top on desktop (ie. in front of the OS source drag window) 3. show a modal answer dlog 4. carry on What happens is that the source OS window can obscure the modal answer dlog so it looks as if the program has hung. Actually there is a window waiting to be clicked! Tried these before showing the modal: - Focus on/ go/ etc do not change the overall window layering. - Set the style to modeless, but the window runs through its openstack routine even with 'lock messages', and is still not layered on top anyway. - Temporarily setting the systemWindow of the stack to true works, but it then obscures the modal so user is locked out. I have looked in the archives for a Mac/Win solution and didn't find anything, except that others have had a problem also. MSWord does it, so it must be do-able (perhaps an external would be needed for LiveCode?).
