Always ontop
« on: January 10, 2017, 09:07 PM »
I am using LaunchBar Commander with autohide.  It appears that the program has some difficulty relating to always being on top of maximized windows.  Reserving space eliminates that problem but costs that space from the display area.  Is there a setting I'm missing or is this something to add to the bug list?

Thanks

Can you check your about box and tell me what version it says you have running?

Can you try redownloading -- I was having trouble with ontop behavior and i made some minor changes which i uploaded a while ago but without officially updating published version numbers.
It should be 1.149.04.

See if that helps.

I now have 1.149.04  Tried it on a site or two and it looks promising.  I'll report back after a couple of days of use.

:) So far so good.  I haven't had it not become visible for anything I've done so far.  Looks like a keeper.

LBC does not always display on top of a maximized Chrome or other application window after opening and closing of other programs.  Exiting and reopening LBC brings it back.  Unless you already have a command, I'll build myself a little cmd script to do the job from a button.
