I have a small application, which is to always stay on top. Another
application, which it is supposed to stay on top of, is QuarkXPress 5. I'm
using Me.TopMost = True in the Form1_Deactivat e event, and it works almost
perfectly. It always stays on top, except when I click on one of the tools
in the floating tool bar of QuarkXPress. Anything else in QuarkXPress is no
problem ... document, menus, etc. But click on anything on QuarkXpress'
floating toolbar, and my VB.NET application says bye-bye.
What event might I use in this situation to stop it from losing it's TopMost
position? Thanks. 1 2593

What if the other application wants to be topmost, too? Which one is more
topmost? All topmost windows have their own z-order.
Look for "z-order" or "topmost" here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en...owfeatures.asp

Here's somewhat of an interesting problem. I am creating a class called
Rectangle. It takes in 4 sets of Cartesian coordinates (i.e. (x,y)
coordinates.). I'm assuming that the rectangle can be rotated too when
receiving these coordinates.
How would I go about setting methods to
A>"order" them (so that when i trace the outsides, point A,B,C,D all are
continous, as opposed to crossing in the "middle"...

Greetings to all experts.
I'm running Python 2.3/Pythonwin 1.63 on Windows 98. I would like to
create a window with Tkinter, that is always on top of the screen.
In Tkinter.py, Line 1375 f., I'm reading:
"On Windows, ... -topmost gets or sets whether this is a topmost window
(displays above all other windows)."
Therefore my simple code is:

I have an application that needs a window to stay on top of the other ones, I thought that TopMost = true would be suitable for this feature but it also makes this window to stay on top of all other application running on my PC, Does anybody know How can I prevent this TopMost window appear when I switch to the other applications??

Ive set the TopMost property of the form to true and it does work ok.
After performing tasks this window generates an error or confirmation

Hello,
I have a VB6 app that calls a VB.NET app via named pipes and a third
party component. Inside the VB.NET app I'm trying to force a form to
the top, at least temporarily. Inside a form's public sub I'm doing:
Public Sub ThisIsMySub(TheseAreMyArguments)
Me.Show
Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Normal
Me.TopMost = True

I'm running VS.NET 2002 and keep having problems with form keeping on top
with its TopMost property. Sometimes my program places the invoked form on
top sometimes not. Sometimes when I click on the form it stays on top as it
should, but sometimes TopMost property does not pick up so if I click to
some other program it covers the form which supposed to remain on the top.
Has anyone experienced similar problems? is there a fix? or I am...

Hi,
I have a dialog box that must behave as MessageBox does
with regard to the TopMost property. It must be TopMost if
and only if the calling form is TopMost. A static method
creates the dialog box. Is there a way of determining if the
application is TopMost from a static method?
There are some inelegant workarounds but I would prefer to
do whatever MessageBox does.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
