Hi,

Is it possible to ensure that, upon setVisible(true), a JDialog pop-up
jumps on top of all other windows including other applications?

Many thanks in advance!

You can "suggest" that behavior (see Andrew Thompson's
response), but obviously you cannot "ensure" it. Consider:
What happens when two different applications both try to
make their windows do this?

I think it should come down to whichever app. has
the biggest bull-bar.

( ..do I even need to add a 'smiley' to that? )
