Flicking hidden windows

[Stick]

I have just upgraded to fm7 (from 6) and most things have been fine except for an annoying feature with hidden windows.

I have one main file that the user works from - if this file 'uses' another file, that file momentarily flicks into the foreground, even if it was hidden before, or if 'freeze window' has been selected. This did not occur in fm6 - how can I stop this happening?

Thanks

I'm not sure if this addresses your problem, but....

I have been putting script steps that involve opening other layouts (get related, copy/paste into a field) by using the "new window" (script step, or option on a get related records script step), and then opening a window "offscreen"--ie, top left corner at say, (2000, 2000). This solves the flicker problem. The issue of course is that if there is a bug in the script, you now have an offscreen window which can be very confusing to the user.
