I use a dedicated monitor for instruments when flying. With a G1000 equipped plane such as the Mooney, I open the main panel, reduce it a little then add 3 more windows (MFD, Radio and ATC). However, whenever I click in the main panel it comes to the foreground and covers the other windows. I saw an article by the late (regretted) OPA entitled <Keeping PopUp windows visible when changing views> and thought that might be the answer but it's not so. Is there a way to either force the main panel always to the back or force the other windows to always stay on top?

hi,

 

Try to use "zorder" in the window section of the panel.cfg:

 

[Window00]

....

zorder=0

 

[Window01]

.....

zorder=1

 

etc.

 

Works for me
