MPCStar won't relinquish foreground

When MPCStar is actually playing a movie, it keeps itself in the foreground and prevents any other window from being brought forward to cover it. You’ve got to stop the playback before you can look at the other window.

This is very hostile behavior. If you want to, for example, look at Windows Explorer to find another file for whatever reason, you’ve got to stop MPCStar first in order to do it. Please fix this. MPCStar should behave like every other player and gracefully relinquish the foreground whether it’s playing or not.

Hi kluelos, you can change this behaviour of MPCStar.

Go to Tools → Always on Top, selecting “Never” will allow MPCStar to be covered by other programs on the desktop.:slight_smile:

Ah, ok, thank you! I didn’t spot that. My bad!
