I have this "problem" under Windows. I open a modal JDialog subclass from the menu of my frame window. Now if I switch to some other task on the Windows task bar and then return to my app by clicking it in the task bar, I see only the frame window. I have to manually locate the dialog by closing the windows of other tasks. I thought I could get the dialog to stick to the frame by setting the frame as the parent of the dialog. But it doesnt seem to work. I also notice that the JBuilder IDE itself doesn't have this problem: their dialogs "adhere" to the frame window. Can someone help me with the details on how this effect is achieved? TIA

That should do it.
What version of Java are you using and what platform are you running
on? There were some problems in this area in earlier versions of Java.
