Hi,
Under Windows 10 and full screen mode the choose image screen opens behind the application.
This leads to user's confusion and it is needed to bring it in front by pressing the [ALT] + [TAB] key combination
Is there any way to change this behavior?

for me it works at windows 10 within full screen,agk goto window mode , i see the selector and after this it go into fullscreen, but i started it via key press.
maybe try with MinimizeApp() RestoreApp()

the problem is if the file dialog is open and then if the user click in the screen area around this dialog , this window get the focus and the dialog is behind

Hi Markus and thank you for the code.
I run your example with and without minimize but the behavior on my system is the same: the dialog is going behind the application

Yes, I use 2.0.21
Although the MinimizeApp() works in the following simple example:


it doesn't work if it is followed by the ShowChooseImageScreen() (see your code)

Yes, I used your sample exactly as it is.
I am wondering if this behavior depends on each system
