fixed in my local codebase(s) with the wonderful new GTK function Gtk::Window::set_keep_above (bool). |

This doesn't appear to be fixed here. Do I not have the new GTK function Gtk::Window::set_keep_above (bool) ? To re-state. Open the Editor and the mixer windows. Place them so they are not overlapping each other. Now open the Big Clock window. Place it so that it is not over the top of either of the editor or mixer windows. Click on the editor window, big clock is visible. Click on the mixer window, big clock window is removed. Click back on the editor window, big clock reappears. |

"keep on top" is window-manager dependent. it works here with icewm. what WM do you use? here's what the docs for the GTK function say: ------------------------------------------------------- Asks to keep window above, so that it stays on top. Note that you shouldn't assume the window is definitely above afterward, because other entities (e.g. the user or window manager) could not keep it above, and not all window managers support keeping windows above. But normally the window will end kept above. Just don't write code that crashes if not. It's permitted to call this function before showing a window, in which case the window will be kept above when it appears onscreen initially. You can track the above state via the "window_state_event" signal on GtkWidget. Note that, according to the Extended Window Manager Hints specification, the above state is mainly meant for user preferences and should not be used by applications e.g. for drawing attention to their dialogs. |

Fixed in SVN 2465. Since big clock has "keep-on-top" set, don't bother with making it float above the editor. |
