property

Summary

Specifies whether palettes always float above standard windows.

Syntax

set the raisePalettes to {true | false}

Description

Use the raisePalettes property to control interleaving of palettes with other windows.

If the raisePalettes property is true, palettes float in their own layer above standard windows. In other words, all palettes are always in front of editable window|editable windows and modeless dialog boxes if this property is set to true.

If it is set to false, palette windows can be interleaved with standard windows.

Important

Setting this property to true may result in window flashing on Unix systems.
