As a workaround you can try static_cast<NSView*>(window.winId()).window.windowLevel = NSNormalWindowLevel + 1

However I don‘t know any „top of application (only)“ flag myself (not saying that Qt doesn’t provide such a flag - I just don’t know). And what do we do if we developers are too lazy to read the fine manual? Exactly! We have someone else read it for us - like your favourite LLM! ;) Here is what ChatGPT has to say about it: https://zzzcode.ai/answer-question?id=d21e6762-84c8-406c-823c-f379471ce766 Quote: „ Yes, in Qt, there is a flag that can be used to make a modeless dialog stay on top of the application. This flag is called Qt::WindowStaysOnTopHint. By setting this flag on a modeless dialog, you can ensure that the dialog remains on top of all other windows in the application.“ And even better: a quick research reveals that this flag („hint“) actually seems to exist ;) In fact, you can try it out right away and tell us how it went: https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtwidgets-widgets-windowflags-example.html ;) Hope that helps!
