Problem:
I want to my main application window (which essentially only is a window with a menu from which other programs may be started in threads) to behave sort of like the main app window in photoshop, that is i want it to always stay behind other independent windows belonging to subprograms called from the main program. For example: by default when opening a first indow (by making a menu selection) it will be displayed over the main app window. When opening a second window the focus will (of course) change to the main app window and then to the second window, causing the first window to lie behind the main app window which in turn is behind the second window. Instead of this I want the main app window to stay behind the other windows. Maybe I overlooked some some easy solution?
