Window focus while editing

[jvh75021]

It is often necessary to have a text file open while I am editing a VI. Sometimes I need to copy from the text file and paste into a VI and I usually have several VIs open at a time. When I click in the VI to paste the text file selection every open VI gets brought to the front and my text file gets hidden. So it is then necessary to Alt-Tab back to it or mouse over to the task bar which is usually on the other monitor to make the text file visible. 

Is there a property to tell LabView that I would like to control what is visible?

Thanks, and happy Independence Day (to my fellow U.S. wire mongers)

No, but you can vote for this idea if you want it to change in the future.

It might be possible to write code which will intercept the window message generated when switching focus to LV and then overriding it somehow, but this is probably not something anyone would want to play with.
