I have the SaveDialog.FormStyle := fsStayOnTop, and usually it stays
visible over other application windows, but eventually it will be
covered, and then it remains hidden unless I click on the PADSplus
taskbar item, or restore the window that was minimized.

I just noticed that, if I click on the SaveDialog to make it active, then
thereafter it can be hidden by other windows until it is made to
reappear. It actually must be recreated to stay on top.

Also, if the SaveDialog pops up over a window that is Active, then it seems
to stay on top when I activate other windows. If I click on the SaveDialog,
and it closes, the underlying window is deactivated, and if the Dialog pops
up again before I activate the displayed window, it does not stay on top.
Why is it acting this way, and can anything be done to make it do what I
need?
