Always on top

I have no idea what I did, but now Calibre is always on top, and I cannot figure out how to make it respond like it used to. For example going to another frame that is in the background. It always stays on top masking out the other frame.....
Thanks.....
Henri

You've probably managed to hide a modal dialogue or something, try task switching to calibre - in Windows you use Alt+Tab to do that, with luck the modal dialogue will pop out.

Otherwise just kill calibre, and start it again - it's very forgiving.

If it's happening even after a restart it may be due to multiple monitors (screens), have you ever run calibre on a second screen .

I do have multiple screens, but to the best of my knowledge never run Calibre from there. Since I posted the query I have tried, it seems like a gazillion, things. It has been corrected, and the last thing I did was to shut down completely, then restart with a cold boot. Now all is OK... Seems funny that there is no property for this...
Thank You, Henri
