    The main idea of suggested implementation is to keep 'main/key'
    window in normal window level and move all its child windows to
    floating level. Such approach guarantees that the child windows will
    appear in front of 'main/key' window and 'main/key' window will not
    overlap them when it is resized, moved, etc. It is supported by
    native OS and requires less changes in our code.<br>
    <br>
    Of course we can implement similar logic without usage of floating
    window level, but that solution will be quite complex and requires
    many changes in the code. In other words we will have to maintain
    the correct windows order (child window should be above parent
    window) by ourselves after every resize, move and similar
    operations. Also there are some scenarios where it is quite
    difficult or almost impossible to detect that ordering is required
    due to native OS limitation. <br>
    <br>
    Based on above I believe the usage of floating window level is more
    suitable for this case. Also as far as I know Windows OS uses quite
    similar window level concept to process parent-child relationship.<br>

                <br class="">
                Let me clarify the implementation of orderChilds()
                function. It is responsible for proper windows ordering,
                (i.e. child windows should be always placed/ordered
                above their parents or owners; a parent/owner window
                should not overlap its children during sizing or moving
                operations).<br class="">
                <br class="">
                Usually all Java windows/frames/dialogs have the normal
                level. <br class="">
                <br class="">
                When a window receives focus, (i.e. becomes 'main/key'
                window), we will look for all its children and move them
                to the floating level. According to Cocoa documentation:
                floating windows always appear in front of normal-level
                windows, (see <a moz-do-not-send="true"
                  class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/ApplicationKit/Classes/NSWindow_Class/#//apple_ref/occ/instp/NSWindow/level">https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/ApplicationKit/Classes/NSWindow_Class/#//apple_ref/occ/instp/NSWindow/level</a>).

                Also we explicitly order each children above its nearest
                owner using orderWindow() function, see code fragment
                below:<br class="">
                <pre class=""><font class="" color="#3333ff">[window orderWindow:NSWindowAbove relativeTo:[owner.nsWindow windowNumber]];</font></pre>
                When a window loses focus, (i.e. resigns 'main/key'
                window status), we will look for its children and move
                them back to the normal level. And of course we order
                each child window above its nearest parent using
                orderWindow().<br class="">
                 <br class="">
                Please note: orderChilds() function changes window level
                only for child windows of current 'main/key' window,
                (i.e. focus owner); the window level of 'main/key' is
                not affected.<br class="">
                <br class="">
                So for your example: A<-B<-C relationship and
                A,C,B sequence (assume A has just received focus) we
                will get something following:<br class="">
                1. A stays at the normal window level<br class="">
                2. C is moved to the floating level and ordered above B<br
                  class="">
                3. B is moved to the floating level and ordered above A
                (actually ordering operation does not matter here since
                A and B are located at different levels)<br class="">
                4. C and B are displayed in front of A due to different
                window levels; C is appeared above B due to ordering
                call at step 2<br class="">
              </div>
            </div>
          </blockquote>
          <div><br class="">
          </div>
          <div>Is it true that reordering B still keeps C above it? If
            so, then the scheme works.</div>
        </div>
      </div>
    </blockquote>
    Frankly I am not sure about this. I performed several tests with
    various numbers of child windows and their sequences. I was not able
    to reproduce the situation when child window is appeared behind its
    parent. So if you have any test case for this, please let me know
    and I will look into it. <br>
    Anyway I think this case is outside the scope of the fix and should
    be investigated under separate bug, if any.<br>
