Problem: A window is always on top

[Fermin]

Hi.

When I 'awakened' the computer that had been resting a few hours (iMac), I have seen that the main window of a stack in which I'm working is always in front of all the others:

If I write an instruction "answer" or "ask", standing behind. Also the message window and the script window left behind. Even if I open other applications (browser, Photoshop etc.) the same. In fact, it is not active the small yellow button (Mac) to minimize the window.

This only occurs in a stack. I opened others and work well.

I do not remember that I have entered a command that could cause this problem. Does anyone know how to fix it?

Thank you.

Hi Fermin,

could it be that you accidentally set the "systemWindow" to true in the Properties inspector? (in Basic Properties for the stack) If so unselect "SystemWindow" in the Properties Inspectore or put into the message box

Code: Select all

set the systemWindow of stack "myStack" to false

and hit return.

Kind regards
Bernd

Exactly, that's what happened. I did not consciously but perhaps had something to do with that I've accidentally renamed the stack with the name of an object (a rounded rectangle of a calendar application that I'm writing). Thank you very much, Bernd.

Hi.

The dictionary says that on "Mac OS", this property has no effect. Could they have meant "(but does on) Mac OSX"?

Hi Craig,

Could they have meant "(but does on) Mac OSX"?

I could not figure it out from the dictionary, just tried it.

It definitely works on MacOSX, System 10.9.5 LC 7.x.x

Kind regards

My Mac System is 10.9.5 (Mavericks) and Live Code version is 7.0.5. For now I will not update any of them (conjuring Murphy)
On the question of this post, as BN said, the property SistemWindow was turned ON (not sure why). I disabled that property and the problem has disappeared.
Thanks to all.
