Greg:

As I said, it doesn't make any difference. And, I don't use the
_keepCtrlsActive attribute anyway.

The problem is that when a window is designated as a "keep in back" window
in PG, its buttons never dim -- even when you change to another application.

What I would like to have is a main "keep in back" window and a pallet
window. And, have them both dim when the user selects another applicaiton.
