JDiaog window remain always on top

[Priya Lavti]

Hi,

I have a JDialog window which remain always on top even if I select the previous window.

what is the change i need to do so that the JDialog window goes in back when i select parent window?
Or do i need to use something else than JDialog?

Thanks!

Just use dialog.setModal(false);

yes, I am doing the same.
But even then the dialog appears on top of parent window after selecting the parent window.

The JDiaog window is still shown on top of parent window but is inactive state (i.e. not selected/focused). It hinders the view of parent window when doing any operation on parent window.

Do not use a modal JDialog.
Also declare a separate JFrame to bind to the JDialog.

Hi,

JDialog is by default always non-modal ... if not explicitly specified otherwise:
- via constructor --> boolean flag
- or via method call setModal(boolean)

Could just pop a new JFrame and that will.
