Greetings:
I'd like to make the FreeCommander window stay on top of all other windows.
I searched the menus, the help file, and the board, but didn't find anything.
Is this possible, and if so, how?
TIA,
Keith
Make FC Always On Top
Re: Make FC Always On Top
Hello Keith, welcome to the FreeCommander forum.
I don't think so.
Workaround, external tool like HotkeyP, useful free program, you can make any window always on top with a custom shortcut.

Re: Make FC Always On Top
Thanks for the reply. I'll code something quick in AutoHotkey. Odd FC doesn't have that option. Many of the dual-pane file managers do. I'll like FC best, though, so I'll figure it out.
Thanks,
Keith

Re: Make FC Always On Top
This autohotkey-code is in my standard-AHK-script:
Code: Select all
; Hotkeys:
; Always_on_top_AHK - Strg + Win + A - make window always on top
^#a::
WinGet, currentWindow, ID, A
WinGet, ExStyle, ExStyle, ahk_id %currentWindow%
if (ExStyle & 0x8) ; 0x8 is WS_EX_TOPMOST.
{
Winset, AlwaysOnTop, off, ahk_id %currentWindow%
SplashImage,, x0 y0 b fs12, OFF always on top.
Sleep, 1500
SplashImage, Off
}
else
{
WinSet, AlwaysOnTop, on, ahk_id %currentWindow%
SplashImage,,x0 y0 b fs12, ON always on top.
Sleep, 1500
SplashImage, Off
}
return

Re: Make FC Always On Top

Re: Make FC Always On Top
I think so, even dialog windows are fixed on top.
excuse me, Strg on german keyboard is Ctrl on english keyboard.
Shortcut ^#a = Ctrl + Win + a
but you can define every shortcut you want (if it's not in use by system or foreground program)

Re: Make FC Always On Top
With HotkeyP it's easier:
Hot Key: any
Command: Always on top
That's all, you can use the custom global shortcut to toggle always on top for any program/window.
