Greetings: I was wondering if there was a graceful way to always restore an application when you had a dialog open AND/OR a form in modal mode? It's an MDI application with other non MDI forms which have the fsStayOnTop FormStyle. I've been using the NormalizeAllTopMosts( ) and RestoreTopMosts( ), but they don't always seem to work in conjunction with dialogs or modal forms. Also, I get different restoring results if I open my modal form from the main menu via a TAction as opposed to another form's button that's style is fsStayOnTop. All the Best, Rusty

In case anyone is interested, if you update all of you MDI windows (in my case, they are Direct3D windows) and then call Invalidate() and Update() on your MainForm, it seems to restore stuff properly.
