The process I am currently testing includes an input dialog where the user is supposed to enter a date.
Instead of having a standard popup behaviour - the window being on top, focused with the ability to start typing straight away, the dialog window is doing a “pop under”. It is generated, its icon flashes in the taskbar, but it is not on top of all the windows I currently have open.
What do I need to do to avoid this behaviour?
Happens in the most basic sequences with just 1 step - the input dialog
With older stable version like 2016.1.6075 we don’t have any option to make it topmost.
But with latest stable release i.e version 2016.2.* in input dialog message activity properties it will be show at topmost
.
checked it and you will be able to see the input box is appearing on top checking it also on newer version i am getting it on top of all screens.
Sorry for miss assumption due to writing confliction you will be find this option in only message box i have mentioned this because in older stable version this was the same issue like input box but in latest version i have not faced such issues.
Input box always will come on top. i guess in .net form input dialog will always come on top because of its default topmost property.
@adrian or @badita anyone? will you please guide us on this?
I guess this could be relevant information:
Message box with TopMost property activated does appear on top, but it is not focused. I can’t simply press “Enter” to continue, I need to select the popup first.

Let me know if I can provide further information to troubleshoot this.
