I would like the mailbox/compose windows to be able to lose focus when another window is selected. The mailbox window is persistent and can only be minimized directly and stays on top of all other windows. Thank you.

Ok- thanks for your reply- take care and 73- Clifford
Hi Ira-
If the windows are short term use then why make it forced on top assuming as you say users are likely to use and close? I don't have any other software that forces itself on top the way VarAC does and is an anomaly. I often see unfamiliar with basic Windows OS window navigation like Alt-Tab to switch easily between open apps.
Hi-
Those windows are on top of every app in the OS. The mail window can end up on top of the message window and then you cannot move the mail window at all. Game window is same I discovered tonight but it cannot even be moved. Basically you can easily end up having windows (mailbox and maybe game) that cannot me moved or closed. Changing focus to a web browser or any other program is occluded by the messages widow that remains on top. Just not friendly design for moving between apps- look at QRZ come back etc- window just stuck there on top entire time.
Thx and happy 2025 to you.

For windows that need to be opened for a long period of time as they are being populated live (Like SNR Graph) It make sense. But for a window that you open and does not get new data, there is no need to remain open all the time so its prefered to be top-most so people will not find it hidden someplace.
If you elaborate on the "why" I will try to see if it make sense.
Irad.
