'separate video window' has no always-on-top option in miniplayer mode

In miniplayer mode, the control panel can stay on top, but the video widow can't. This defeats the purpose of keeping the miniplayer on top.
I hope this, and all the other problems are rectified in the next release.

On most models, performing a factory reset will cause the TV to go through the initial setup, allowing you to specify its location. However, I don't see your model listed in our database. If it's not a US unit, you may want to contact Toshiba in your region.

Breadcrumbs to have "Always on top option"

Hi,
In my webhelp I have enabled the bread crumbs option....Now,
I am having a small usability issue with this...
I maintain breadcrumbs on the top left side of the
page....When i scroll down the page, the breadcrumb is not visible
and hence i always have to scroll back to the top/bottom of the
page to navigate...
I just wanted to know if it is possible to always have the
bread crumbs at the top of the page regardless of the
scrolling..something like the "always on top option"..
Please let me now if this is possible in anyway..
thanks in advance for your help!!!

Hi there
RoboHelp doesn't offer this functionality. But it doesn't
mean that you can't have it if you are determined. There are some
JavaScripts out there that can be used to achieve what you want.
Note, however, that it will require post processing your WebHelp
output to add the scripts to the pages.

"Always on TOP"option for my window

Hi All
I am developing an application in which I wanted to develop a facility for enabling "always stay on top" to one of the windows .How can I do this.
Thanks in advance
Haritha

I solved this problem using JNI, and I think that is the only way to allow the "Alwasy on Top" option. Here's how I did it.
1. Create an extension of JFrame or JDialog or JWindow, whatever you want.
2. Add the native method setAlwaysOnTop()
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class MyFrame extends JFrame {
static { System.loadLibrary("MyFrame"); }
public MyFrame() {
super();
public void setAlwaysOnTop(boolean b) {
int hwnd = getNativeWindowHandle(this);
seteAlwaysOnTop(hwnd, b);
private native int getNativeWindowHandle(Window window);
private native void setAlwaysOnTop(int hwnd, boolean flag);
*NOTE the getNativeWindowHandle method is required to manipulate the frame in native code
**NOTE I will take about the static { System.loadLibrary("MyFrame"); }
at the end.
3. Compile your code.
4. Next you must create a c or c++ source file, name it whate every you want, and then define the setAlwaysOnTop method.
Heres the code for the native file.
#include <jni.h>
#include <jawt.h>
#include <afxwin.h>
#include <windows.h>
#include "MyFrame.h"
#include "jawt_md.h"
JNIEXPORT jint JNICALL
Java_MyFrame_getNativeWindowHandle(JNIEnv *env, jobject jobj, jobject window)
JAWT awt;
awt.version = JAWT_VERSION_1_3;
jboolean result = JAWT_GetAWT(env, &awt);
if (result == JNI_FALSE)
return 0;
JAWT_DrawingSurface* ds = awt.GetDrawingSurface(env, window);
if (ds == 0)
return 0;
jint lock = ds->Lock(ds);
if ((lock & JAWT_LOCK_ERROR) != 0)
return 0;
JAWT_DrawingSurfaceInfo* dsi = ds->GetDrawingSurfaceInfo(ds);
if (dsi != 0)
return 0;
JAWT_Win32DrawingSurfaceInfo* dsiwin = (JAWT_Win32DrawingSurfaceInfo*) dsi->platformInfo;
jint ret = reinterpret_cast<jint>(dsiwin->hwnd);
ds->FreeDrawingSurfaceInfo(dsi);
ds->Unlock(ds);
awt.FreeDrawingSurface(ds);
return ret;
JNIEXPORT void JNICALL
Java_MyFrame_windowAlwaysOnTop(JNIEnv *env, jobject jobj, jint hwnd, jboolean flag)
if (flag)
SetWindowPos((HWND) hwnd,HWND_TOPMOST,0,0,0,0,SWP_NOMOVE|SWP_NOSIZE);
else
SetWindowPos((HWND) hwnd,HWND_NOTOPMOST,0,0,0,0,SWP_NOMOVE|SWP_NOSIZE);
*NOTE say your class MyFrame is in the package com.me.swing then the method prototype would look like this:
JNIEXPORT void JNICALL
Java_com_me_swing_MyFrame_windowAlwaysOnTop(JNIEnv *env, jobject jobj, jint hwnd, jboolean flag)
5. you may have noticed the #include "MyFrame.h" line, well that is generated by the javah command. So, next run javah on your MyFrame.class file. you will have to look at the options to configure the command to do what you want, but essentially "javah MyFrame.class".
6. Make sure your MyFrame.h file and MyFrame.c or MyFrame.cpp file is in the same directory and compile them into an object file. Now you will have to figure out how to do this on your own. First you must get a c++ compiler, I use Visual C++ form Microsoft. If you are using that then
here is the command line
cl -Ic:\j2sdk1.4.0\include -Ic:\j2sdk1.4.0\include\win32 /c -LD
-IMyFrame.h MyFrame.cpp
Execute this command from the directory where you MyFrame.h and MyFrame.cpp files are or you will have to specify their paths.
the -Ic:\j2sdk1.4.0\include -Ic:\j2sdk1.4.0\include\win32 provide path information to include the jni.h and jawt.h files.
7. Now you will have to link the object file with the jawt.lib file and create the final dll. Again you will have to figure how to do this, but with VC++ the command is.
link /DLL MyFrame.obj c:\j2sdk1.4.0\lib\jawt.lib
Now you should 8 have files
MyFrame.java
MyFrame.class
MyFrame.h *created form javah
MyFrame.cpp
MyFrame.obj *created from compiling
MyFrame.exp *created from compiling
MyFrame.lib *created from compiling
MyFrame.dll *created from linking
You are done, now create a main class and instanciate and test your new frame.
**REMEBER the static { System.loadLibrary("MyFrame"); } line in your MyFrame.java file. This loads your newly created dll into the system so you can access it.
**IMPORTANT THE MyFrame.dll AND THE MyFrame.class FILE MUST BE IN THE SAME DIRECTORY, OR SPECIFY IT IN THE System.loadLibrary METHOD CALL.

Windows stuck in always on top mode

I am not sure why but many of my windows like to stay always on top. It gets frustrating when I have something running full screen, and I cant get to the other window or application because the full screen application wont let anything come on top. This
also happens with my chrome windows. This is where I first noticed this issue. I tend to keep dozens of tabs open and keep them organised in specific windows. But when I try to drag one to another monitor overtop another chrome window, or bring it to the front
it stays behind the other window. It seems to be somewhat random as well as some windows will allow others to come to the front, but generally they will not. I don't know if there is a shortcut or something that I maybe hit to change this setting or what.
Any suggestions.

Hi,
"But when I try to drag one to another monitor overtop another chrome window, or bring it to the front it stays behind the other window. "
Are you using dual (or multiple) monitors? Are you able to show other windows by click the follow options (right click the taskbar):
Pleaes also note that some third party programs can make certain windows stays on top, please check if this is the cause.

Windows 8 taskbar always on top?

Hi,
Taskbar appears to be on top in Windows 8 whenever I got into full screen - pdf., movies, presentation.
My display is on 'Larger - 150%'.
However, this happens only recently and I have no clue why. It used to be working even the display was on 150%.
I hate the auto-hide option..
Please help!

I have this problem too. It is not a graphics driver issue. In previous versions of windows, this was a selectable option for the task bar. Now it is default with no visible option to change it. Even with the task bar set to autohide on, it just retreats
to the edge and if you bring your mouse cursor too close to the edge, the task bar pops up. What we want is to know how to set the task bar so that all other applications are on top of it, unless the task bar is what we have selected as the active focus object.
It has absolutely nothing to do with the task bar position and everything to do with it's disposition. Please help. I often have applications running in full screen borderless window mode and with the task bar always floating on top, it gets annoying when
I need to use buttons at the bottom of the screen in the application I have as the active focus only to find the task bar has popped back up and is in the way, often causing me to lose focus with application I am trying to use. For people who don't use autohide,
it's even worse, because the task bar is always there. We want it to stay UNDER our focused apps until we alt-tab out and select the taskbar. I tried modding the reg file, but the structure for this "feature" has changed since windows 7 and earlier
versions. It is just one more feature Microsoft removed from windows, that we the users want restored.

Since installing the latest update, whenever I try to play purchased videos, they open in the separate video window and immediately causes iTunes to crash and close.

Ever since installing the latest iTunes 10.4 update, I've been having trouble playing purchsased videos. When I try to play them, they open in an unseen new window and after a couple of seconds of audio, iTunes crashes and has to close. There isn't something wrong with the videos as they play fine on my iPod and I have played most of them before, but they just won't play in iTunes suddenly.
Can anyone help?

Using a lightweight window that's always on top

What I'm trying to do:
Using JGraph, I'd like to set up a bunch of operations that are triggered initially by a button click, then by clicking a number of nodes. Imagine 'Delete', where the user clicks delete, and then clicks a node.
Here's my question: After clicking delete, I'd like to have a lightweight component / window pop up and say the name of the operation, how many clicks they still need, a cancel button, etc. The window I'm thinking about is headless but can be dragged around, kind of like a toolbar. "So," I said to myself, "why not try using a JToolbar?" which I tried. It kinda works, but there are two problems:
1. JToolbar has to started docked in some component. Also, I don't see a programmatic way to float it. I'd prefer for it never to be docked.
2. When I call setVisible(false) when it is floating, the title bar remains.
Can anyone suggest a better way to do this?

This is working quite well for me now. Thanks for the help

Firefox on hp laptop always open with option of safe mode or reset how can i get it to open without option.desktop doesn't do this. Doug

I set up firefox on laptop first and it always requires that i choose to open in safe mode or reset toolbar, how can i change this without reinstalling firefox. My desktop does not require that i do all that it opens with everything in place. I don't know what i did different when i downloaded it on desktop.
Doug

Make sure that you do not have the Shift key pressed when you click to desktop shortcut to start Firefox.<br />
Also check the Properties via the right-click context menu that the -safe-mode switch isn't appended to the target (command) line.

"Show Desktop" bug forces any program windows to be stuck "Always-on-top"

What I found under Windows 7, when you use the "Show Desktop" feature (I prefer the ⊞ Win + D shortcut) and then bring all windows back by using it again, some windows behave as if they're glued to the front of the z-order. What this means is, say, I have windows
A B and C open, with focus on A, hit ⊞ Win +D twice, and now it may happen that if I then want to switch to B or C, either by Alt+Tab or by selecting them on the taskbar, the taskbar shows the highlight, but A stays visible (and usable, it's not just a rendering
issue) in the foreground.
Imagine the following situations, all three windows cascading and overlapping:
A (focus)
B
C
-> ⊞ Win + D
Desktop (focus)
-> ⊞ Win + D
A (focus)
B
C
-> click C on taskbar
A
C (focus)
B
-> click B on taskbar
A
B (focus)
C
And so on. Focus means actual input focus, i.e. in second situation, any keyboard typing is sent to window B while window A is in the foreground.
It does not matter what kind of application; in my current case an instance of Outlook and an instance of Explorer is stuck, while a second instance of Explorer and an instance of Firefox behave normally. This should show that this problem can occur even between
multiple instances of the same application, and that there are no fancy applications involved that like to pretend they are the most important program and internally force "always on top".
Showing and unshowing the desktop again doesn't help; in the worst case another window might end up with the "glued to the top of the z-order" too. Between those, I can easily switch, but in order to get a window which still behaves normally on top, I have
to manually minimize the offending windows.
The only cure seems to close the offending windows so far, I've not found anything else that helps.
Could it be that Windows 7 has a bug that can force an ALWAYS_ON_TOP flag
onto some windows when restoring from "Show Desktop", or am I doing something wrong?
More information from another user:
I use win+d. Issue easy to replicate, Win7-64bit-Ultimate.
The affected windows (any program) seem to be placed into a separate "Z" group. You can place multiple/many windows into this always-on-top state, those in the affected state will function normally in relation to each other with the exception that: - The group
as a whole is always-on-top of any non-affected window - The whole group is on top of the taskbar. - The whole group does not respond to (context on taskbar) "cascade windows" or similar commands.
The fact that the affected windows are on top of the taskbar and otherwise function as "special windows" shows that windows 7 has a hidden "feature" of always-on-top that gets applied with Win+D. The feature appears to place windows in a super window state
that is on top of the taskbar. The normal group remaining behind the taskbar. (When you click the start menu or context menu of the taskbar, the start menu/taskbar comes to the foreground of the always-on-top group, however this does not revert the affected
windows, only a temporary takeover until you switch to something other than the start menu/taskbar)
This is key to finding an answer. How do we get windows to unassign the special status or not do the assignment in the first place?

It appeared to have cleared by closing all windows and restarting. Initially I could not reproduce the error, then after opening all my working windows, I did indeed reproduce it on any window.
I almost think it could be initialized with something to do with multiple windows of Chrome, and then the show desktop problem will crop up once one window has it. This was because: After messing around some more with a chrome session saver (session buddy)
and restoring sessions and getting the super state, I restored and closed the window I was in and now I am again at a place where I can not reproduce the error, even in my "work environment" with some 35 chrome tabs in two windows, plus other programs, file
locations, remote desktops and a second chrome profile with another dozen tabs.
So, back to square one with finding the actual instigator of the super state phenomenon.
Once you actually have the super sate issue, the following will reproduce:
Ok, I am doing this as I type it:
Open chrome (to view this website), then Notepad, then Calculator, (could be any windows, but for the purpose of demonstration, follow along with me)
The windows should function normally, overlap your windows so that you can see the edge of all windows and the Z-order is (from front to back):the browser on top, then the calculator, then Notepad (you should be able to see part of the background windows).
Now, with the browser on top, press win+d, then win+d again.
Click on Calculator, then your browser, your browser is now stuck in the foreground. Clicking on notepad will bring the focus to notepad, and it will be in front of the calculator, yet it will stay behind the browser, as your browser is in "super state". (many
arrangements of switching focus after returning from win+d will create the problem, with the exeption of clicking the desktop, I also noticed that I could not get calculator into super state unless it overlapped my chrome browser).
Again, this does not seem to work until at least one of your windows is affected. We do not know how to get the initial window, only subsequent ones.
I will post back if I find anything else.
Let me know if there is anything that develops.

Firefox always on top, can't alt-tab to other open windows/apps

I have updated to 11.0, windows vista. I didn't notice or have this problem before the update. for example if I have firefox open and click on my calculator, the only way I can see it is to minimize firefox. I cannot alt-tab to it nor can I click the icon in my status bar of windows.???
I have looked through the settings, I didn't see an always on top option, but that's what it seems like.
Any and all info will be appreciated.
TIA,
Jim

When I restarted in safe mode, the firefox window was no longer stuck on top. Restarted again (firefox was set to "show my windows and tabs from last time" for both restarts) in regular mode and it stayed fixed. Maybe just a restart where "show my windows and tabs from last time" is firefox start up setting would fix stuck on top problem?

About setAlwaysOnTop()
Changes the always-on-top window state. An always-on-top window is a window that stays above all other windows except maybe other always-on-top windows. If there are several always-on-top windows the order in which they stay relative to each other is not specified and is platform dependent.
If some other window already is always-on-top then the relative order between these windows is unspecified (depends on platform). No window can be brought to be over always-on-top window except maybe another always-on-top window.
All owned windows of an always-on-top window automatically become always-on-top windows. If a window ceases to be always-on-top its owned windows cease to be always-on-top.
When an always-on-top window is sent toBack its always-on-top state is set to false.
This method makes the window always-on-top if alwaysOnTop is true. If the window is visible, this includes bringing window toFront, then "sticking" it to the top-most position. If the window is not visible it does nothing other than setting the always-on-top property. If later the window is shown, it will be always-on-top. If the Window is already always-on-top, this call does nothing.
If alwaysOnTop is false this method changes the state from always-on-top to normal. The window remains top-most but its z-order can be changed in the normal way as for any other window. Does nothing if this Window is not always-on-top. Has no effect on relative z-order of windows if there are no other always-on-top windows.

Always on top application

Dear all,
I wonder if there is a way to make an oracle application always display on top of all other windows applications at run time. For example, you can set Windows NT Task Manager to 'always on top' option.
Any sugestion will be appreciated.

you could probably do something like
client.connect_signal("property::fullscreen", function(c)

c.ontop = true

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.
