| On Mac OS X it would be great if windows tagged as "non-modal" could behave in the same way as native "palette" Mac OS X windows.
In particular, non-modal windows should have a smaller title bar and should be hidden automatically when the app is not active. | |

| This would contradict the FTLK OS transparent interface rendering objective.
This said, it would be interesting to have such ' hide when inactive' feature, but then we should develop this feature for all platforms, not sure it wil then fit the 1.3 timeline objectives. | |

| I would like to have a simple interface for purpose-based window classes. Fl_Toolbox_Window would be one which would then have the correct visual clues on any platform. Other classes could be Fl_Document_Window, Fl_Floating_Window, Fl_Backdrop_Window, and maybe Fl_Desktop_Overlay_Window?! | |

| I totally agree, still, it would be quite some work for 1.3 IMHO.
Maybe we could first implement a toolbox window for 1.3, which seems to be the most requested feature with a thin caption, as a floating non modal, top z-order window, auto-hidden when not active ? | |

| Sure, I have no problem with that. Fl_Toolbox_Window it is. | |

| This STR has not been updated for more than 14 years. Is there still interest in such special window types?
Otherwise we should IMHO close this STR and/or open a GitHub issue (RFE) for this. | |
