Hi Andreas,

What do you think about adding a function that could bring the display window to the front or send it to the back of a stack of windows?

Hi Andreas,

Good question but not so easy. Under AmigaOS the active display can be in the background but under Windows & Mac OS UI guidelines require it that the active window is always in the foreground. Hence, you wouldn't be able to put the active Hollywood display to the back. It would only work if it was inactive etc. But maybe I'll come up with something like that. I need to check first if there's a possibility to implement this in a multi platform conformous way.
