LabVIEW VIs called from teststand have no taskbar button on Windows

Hello, I cannot figure out how to make LabVIEW popups behave well in TestStand. My sequence has popups with graphs, in some cases more than one at a moment. The goal is to either have them always on top of TestStand or to have a taskbar button as a separate process so I can return to popup once hidden. Currently even when I experimented with different VI appearances (modal, floating, standard), it hides behind the teststand window and I have to manually move the Teststand window. My setup:

 

LabVIEW Runtime is used in LabVIEW adapter. 

The VIs I call are members of Packed Project Library.

I actually do the test in LabVIEW app which behaves as a GUI to Teststand sequence, so I invoke the TestStand from the GUI via TestStand API, but this behavior is the same in LV and TS.

 

Has anyone dug into that?

Modify your VI to call TestStand - Start Modal Dialog
