1 week ago I prepared a script named place_properties_window_on_top.py and successfuly tested, if the following works in the /tmp/supervisord/supervisord.xpra.conf:
[program:place-properties-window-on-top]
command=python /path/to/place_properties_window_on_top.py
user=techuserQuestion, where do we want to put the script?
The script itself is a service and will look like this:

When a modal dialog / popup opens in Capella and the user clicks next to the window, the popups goes to the background and is hidden by the main Capella window. The main Capella window is unresponsive then. This is confusing to users and model dialogs should always stay in the foreground.
