Tested with FullDemo.exe:
If I perform a right click on any commenting tool (like line, rectange etc.) and then click on "Comment Style Palette" it seems as if nothing happens.
After a while I found out that the palette is there, but hidden behind the main window.
I need to shrink the main window and dock it. After restarting FullDemo I have the same problem again.
I think that showing tool windows in the background is not a good default.
How can I change the default, so that the palette gets visible after a click on "Comment Style Palette".
Maybe I overlook something here, but in my opinion docking of this tool window does not make much sense to me. Why not showing it always on top?
Best regards,
Tino

Hello mash_inc,
Are you trying this on the clean FullDemo project? You could have modified your solution so that it behaves like that.
Cheers,
Alex

Yes, it's in the clean FullDemo project.
And also in our own DemoProject.

Re: Comment styles palette opens in the background
Hello Tino,
Had a reply from the developer. He said that the .Net gives some unexpected problems that look like some inner .Net code workarounds of some sort. At the moment, when our ActiveX component initializes, the .Net form has some unknown parent window.
He said that he made a fix in our code to overcome this behavior though this requires a lot of testing first, because this can potentially break the popup-windows' correct behavior in the non-Editor context (internet browser, SDK component on the form etc.).

Alex

Re: Comment styles palette opens in the background
Hi Alex,
thanks for the information.
Is it possible to get the new version soon, so that we can test if it fixes the problem in our environment?
No problem if it is a beta version.
Please also take a look at the new topic below, because it might needs fixing as well.
