It may depend which mode you are in and how you interpret `window'. Try SDI mode. In MDI mode the window is the whole frame, not the sub-window. I don't know how to bring sub-windows to the front. I should point out this is very unlikely to be fixed. There will be no further Windows-specific development by me unless patches are supplied. -- Brian D.

Nothing of importance for me, I just came across that because I wanted to use bringToTop() to automatically show the two devices alternately in the testit() function of the other mail. It's anyhow astonishing how much you do to support windows. I am shure many people appreciate that as much as I do.
