Conemu: Settings window stay on top of any other windows

[blackarcher21]

For example when ConEmu settings is opened, temporarily users want to do something with other programs but ConEmu keep stay on top. I've faced this issue since I start using ConEmu. Please tell me if I missed some option for that behavior. Now using ConEmu 160301 x64 on Windows 8.1

RightClick on dialog title.

okay, thank you. didn't see that one until now :)

[blackarcher21]

anyway It seems just temporary until settings window closed. I can't save that behavior.

[Maximus5]

Yes, and that is expected behavior.

Would you consider changing that (i.e. make the setting persistent)? For me, there is no utility in having the settings dialog always on top.

[Maximus5]

The reason for on-top is simple: ConEmu's settings dialog is mideless! At any moment one may switch to main ConEmu window to check changes without "saving" them. If dialog would not be on-top - it would come under the main window.

Sorry, I can not see the problem with that. It's easy to switch back to the dialog with the taskbar or keyboard shortcut.

If there was a "Settings window always on top" setting it would be great.

Agreed, this would be a perfectly legitimate option (if not the default behavior), because the settings window is displayed on the taskbar, meaning there is no risk of "losing" it.
