How to make menus always on top (Z-order)?

I searched the forums and see messages about using JLayeredPane for building GUIs that can have the Z-order of components controlled. Has anyone done that or know if you can for menus? I have a problem where the menus are displayed behind some log windows (JPanels) but I need to make sure they come up on top. Can anyone help me on how?

Thank you!!
I can't believe that Apple would "forget" a stay on top of windows feature.
It has been driving me mad.
...Apple, specifically, QT developers, are you listening?

  • How to make QuickTime "Always on Top"

    Was browsing the Discussions trying to figure out how to make QuickTime 7.1.3 "Always on Top" on Windows XP, but judging by the unresolved threads I gather Apple forgot to include that option.
    Anyway, I've just discovered a free download that allows you to get around this problem: HELDUP. It creates a tray icon that you can click and drag onto QT (or any open program) to make it topmost/always on top.

  • How to make the status of a sales order complete of which PART DELIVERY

    How to make the status of a sales order complete of which PARTIAL DELIVERY has already done. <b>(Assigning rejection status not accepted)</b>

    Hi Gyana
    There is no document with me. But I can confidently say that because I am using this functionality.
    In my case I have created a Order Reason as "Short Closed". once you short close this order only the balance quantity gets rejected (provided you have already made previous delivery and PGI).
    Try it in one of your test clients if you have. Once it is short Closed it wont also show in the orders due for processing in Production.
    Also you can generate reports based on this if your customer wants to know how many order he has short closed, qty of item short closed etc.
    Try it.

  • How to keep window always on top?

    I use afloat to keep most of the window always on top but it doesn't work for some apps like excel, textwrangler etc...
    How can I make excel, textwrangler etc.. to stay on top even if I focus on some other apps?

    AFAIK, you can't. When you change focus the app assumes you want to use it.

  • How to make Windows stay on top

    Hi all
    I was wondering if anyone knew how to make a window "Stay on top"
    Sometimes when you are copying information from one window to the next you would like one "primary data entry window" stay on top, and a secondary window not overshadow the first when made active. This way you only see the part of the window that you are interested in copying.
    Some programs like skype allow you to have the option as "always on top", but I was wondering if Tiger had the same feature for it's windows?
    The other way around this problem is to re-size the secondary window, but I was hoping someone could tell me a way to keep a designated window as "always on top"
    thanks in advance
    Bishan

    I think perhaps, that the closest you'll get to it, is by using the 'New Tab'
    feature in File, where you can have several windows with quick access available while browsing.

  • How to make imsges overlay on top of a web page

    Can anyone tell me how to make an image overlay on top of a
    web page when the thumbnail is hovered over?
    Ideally the image would be a bit transparent so that the web
    page behind it can still be seen but this is not essential.

    Check the docs. Trent is usually very thorough in his
    instructions.
    Hint: I haven't studied it but it probably involves modifying
    one of DW's
    built-in Behaviors.

  • Awesome window manager: How to keep application always on top

    Is it possible to keep media player applications always on top ?
    Following is my current configuration.
    { rule = { class = "Vlc" },
    properties = { floating = true, ontop = true } }
    This is working fine whenever I start application. But problem is, if I go to full screen and come back, ontop flag is unset.
    Is there anyway to fix this ?

    you could probably do something like
    client.connect_signal("property::fullscreen", function(c)
    if c.class == "mplayer" then
    c.ontop = true
    end
    end)
    i haven't tested this, though, so don't be surprised when it fails
    This is working partially. ie, VLC is keeping ontop propery, but video is not going full screen.

  • Drag/drop import - how to make it always work?

    HI
    Sometimes drag and drop import will work
    (Finder to Project pane, all OSX)
    Sometimes it doesn't, as in sometimes the green plus sign appears, sometimes it doesnee
    This irregularity seems to be when visually dragging and dropping, but also when App switching with Apple Tab, which works less often.
    Is there any logic behind this?
    Is there a way to make it always work?
    Tris
    thankerama

    Ah
    I think it is actually an Apple App switcher thing.
    So if the finder window does noy cover the After Effects Project window, it works, but if you have to use the app switcher, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
    I don't think it is a file type issue, so much as a live application issue, or maybe GPU related.
    It's a weird thing, not that important, but it does limit where you can and can't drag from.

  • Need to make JFrame Always on top.

    I have the main application window(JFrame).It in turn creates many JFrames , i want the newly created JFrames to be set as ALWAYS_ON_TOP , ie even if i click on the the main window,the new JFrames should be always on top similar to Yahoo messenger and MSN messenger.
    Actually i don't want the functionality of "ALWAYS_ON_TOP" with JDialog or JInternalFrame,as both of them will ultimately have their parents as the main JFrame window.
    I want this functionality with JFrames that are created from the main JFrame window.
    Actually i am floating some components of my main JFrame window for which i create a new JFrame window and place that floated component.
    Now this floating JFrame is independent of the main JFrame window ,but i want to set "always on top" for the floating JFrame windows similar to the Yahoo and MSN messengers.

    Try this code. It should be work on all windows which are inherited from java.awt.Window
    * Call this from class consructor
    public void initialize() {
    TopThread top = new TopThread();
    top.start();
    * Keep JWindow on top (inner class)
    class TopThread extends Thread {
    public void run() {
    while(true) {
    toFront();
    * Let 10 milliseconds for other code to execute
    try {
    Thread.sleep(10);
    catch(Exception e) {
    // Nothing to do

  • How to make plant mandatory field in Sales order thru standard SAP process

    Hello,
    There is requirement in business that User wants to make plant field Mandatory in Sales order line item once material number is entered. Can you please guide me how I can make Plant field mandatory thru Standard SAP process.
    I had checked it thru Incompletion process & Order type incompletion messages but still Plant field is not becoming mandatory in Sales order. It only gives incompletion log while saving the SO. Please suggest how to do it thru Standard SAP process.
    Thanks & Regards,

    HI
    Plant will determine based on Customer-material Info Record, Customer Master data & material Master
    If plant is not mandatory in customer Master and Customer material no problem
    but at the time of creating the material master  Plant Mandatory as per my knowledge, so system will pick plant from Material master  that is the case why you required plant Mandatory in Sale order level
    and you need to do Shipping Point Determination for that plant
    Did you check by using User Exit ? if not try once what i have suggested

  • How to make the connection between a sale order and an invoice in SDK

    Hi,
    Im trying to make the connection between a sales order and an invoice using the SDK.
    Here is how i create each of them:
    Invoice:
    public int SalesInvoiceInternalSave(string buisnesspartnerCardCode, DateTime dueDate, double discountPercent, string id, IList<InternalItem> items, ref int invoiceId)
          int res = 0;
          SAPbobsCOM.Documents invoice_entry = (SAPbobsCOM.Documents)Company.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oInvoices);     
          invoice_entry.CardCode = buisnesspartnerCardCode;
          invoice_entry.DocDueDate = dueDate;
          invoice_entry.DiscountPercent = discountPercent;
          invoice_entry.Reference2 = id;
          foreach (InternalItem item in items)
            invoice_entry.Lines.WarehouseCode = item.Shopid;
            invoice_entry.Lines.ItemCode = item.Code;
            invoice_entry.Lines.ItemDescription = item.Name;
            invoice_entry.Lines.Quantity = item.Quantity;
            invoice_entry.Lines.UnitPrice = item.Price;
            invoice_entry.Lines.Add();
          res = invoice_entry.Add();
          return res;
    Sales order:
        public Boolean SalesOrderInternalSave(string orderId, string buisnesspartnerCardCode, DateTime dueDate, IList<InternalItem> items)
          SAPbobsCOM.Documents order_entry = (SAPbobsCOM.Documents)Company.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oOrders);
          order_entry.CardCode = buisnesspartnerCardCode;
          order_entry.DocDueDate = dueDate;
          foreach (InternalItem item in items)
            order_entry.Lines.WarehouseCode = item.Shopid;
            order_entry.Lines.ItemCode = item.Code;
            order_entry.Lines.ItemDescription = item.Name;
            order_entry.Lines.Quantity = item.Quantity;
            order_entry.Lines.UnitPrice = item.Price;
            order_entry.Lines.Add();      
          int res = order_entry.Add();
          return res == 0;
    What do i need to change to get the connection between the two of them?
    And how do you insert a amount (not percent) discount into an invoice?
    Regards,
    Torben

    Hi,
    Add the sale order, then add the invoice. and while adding the invoice please add the following details to the invoce documen
    invoice_entry.Lines.BaseEntry = 'Doc entry of the newly created SO
    invoice_entry.Lines.BaseLine = 'Line No of the SO
    invoice_entry.Lines.BaseType = 17 'For sales order document type.
    Hope it helps,
