Mattias,
What do you think about moving the OnClick to DoubleClick in the MessageView Dialog? The way it is now makes it very hard to position the dialog on top of the code window, you have to select the side or the top of the dialog or it jumps you back into the code window. If we made it a double click you could click on any visible part of the dialog to focus it, and a double click would do the jump to compiler message routine.

Normally you can simply use the taskbar or the interactive window move of your window manager. But if your window manager does not have such goodies, then I believe, the single click is uncomfortable. I added an option to the environment options->desktop. Mattias

Thanks :-)

I am using Gnome (some times KDE) as my desktop so I have a nice task bar, but I like to leave the bottom edge of the MessageView window exposed just below the bottom edge of the editor window.
