Hello,
Why is it that SS and the SS Help system are a single application.
If you have no applications running and then you start SS, you then
have a single app running. If you then open SS Help, you still have
only one app running.
I am looking to Alt-tab between apps. For example, if I open MS Word
and I then open MS Word help, I am able to switch between windows very
quickly using Alt-tab - but with SS and SS Help, they are listed as a
single app and the only way to switch between help and the app is to
click on the help app button in the status bar which will toggle you
from SS to SS Help.
This is important since I want to quickly move back and forth between
help and ss to learn how to use ss and not have to use my mouse cursor
but instead just use the Alt-tab which i believe is common procedure.

Hi Ivan,
If I uncheck 'Always Display Help Window on Top', it seems I still
get the same behaviour. I think the box being checked is the
default?
If only SS and SS Help are running, here is what happens:
If I am in SS, I can Alt-tab and my window changes to be SS Help
If I am in SS Help, I cannot Alt-tab to return to SS but
instead I need to click the SS Help icon in the task bar.
Shouldn't Alt-tab toggle the windows back and forth?

If I uncheck the checkbox Ivan mentioned, I don't see the behavior you are describing. Did you close/open the Help window after changing the checkbox state?
