Modeless window on Mac behind its parent window

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      Clicking outside the modeless window (the child window in my example), hides this window under its parent.
      The following sample demonstrates the problem. This problem does not exist in Windows.

      Changing Qt::Window for Qt::Tool allows the window to float, but above all main windows and not only the parent window.

      #include <QtCore>
#include <QtGui>
#include <QtWidgets>

int main(int argc, char * argv[])
{
	QApplication app(argc, argv);

	QMainWindow* mw = new QMainWindow(0);
	mw->show();
	QMainWindow* mw2 = new QMainWindow(0);
	mw2->show();

	QDialog* d = new QDialog(mw, Qt::Window);
	d->show();
    return app.exec();
}
