On Windows 10 I can have the Text Search process running in the 'foreground' with the main calibre window minimised to the taskbar, or hidden behind another window.

If I do a text search whilst the main window is out of sight, and select a book from the results list, and then click on "Select" in the Book panel a dotted box is drawn around the word "Select"… that's it, a dotted box is drawn.

In order to see the Selected book in the library I must hover the mouse over the Windows taskbar calibre icon, and then click on the popout for the main calibre window.

Which results in the Text Search window being hidden.
