Raising the roof

So . . .

I was using LC 9.6.3 yesterday, and also LIbreOffice on the same monitor (had 'other shit' going on on the other 2 monitors :D ), and, having written the stuff in my LibreOffice document (Academic paper on Old Church Slavonic implementation in LC/"summing else" with Unicode 17.0 before you ask), I wanted to get back to my stack in LC 9.6.3., but, clicking on the revMenubar bit that protruded above the LibreOffice window top, that stack came to the front, but my stack did not: this is, frankly, utter bollocks . . .

Is there any way to treat all the constituent stacks of an LC session as a single window for the sole purpose of raising them to the top level of a display (i.e. in front of my LibreOffice window FFS)?

Singularly effective. 8)

Many years ago I saw something about "drunken Shaolin monks" while I was going through my midlife crisis (think: Karate followed by North Korean Tae Kwon Do): now I am working my way towards a black belt in "drunken programming" . . . Hey, you never know, it might catch on. 8)

If I understand you, you clicked on the revmenuBar, which brought LC (the app) to the front but not any LC stacks. Is that what you meant?

If so, it has always been that way. I wonder if there is some property in the dictionary that forces ALL LC stacks to the front when the LC app itself is brought there. I say "ALL", because even if you click on a LC stack instead of the revMenuBar, only that stack will come to the front.

However, I think this an OS issue, not a LC issue.
