Chocolateygui: Please run processes on another thread
Not sure if this has been covered, but it appears any processes (refreshing versions, updates, installs, etc) occur on the UI thread, locking the window. It would be nice to be able to at least reposition the window (or minimise it) while it is working away at something.

They do, actually. A whole other process actually. I'm assuming you're referring to the progress modals however? I agree that the current modal dialog implementation can be frustrating (especially since it covers the window grab bar).

Proves you can never make assumptions of implementation based on behaviour! But yes, to be able to minimise / move the window while the modal dialog is showing would be an improvement.

Looks like we just need to add ShowDialogsOverTitleBar. Will do so now.
