Wolfgang,

You should be able to make a single palette floating.

1)Select the Palette

2) Make it editable by using the Option Inspector.
NotebookOptions\FileOptions\Editable -> True

3) Make it floating by using
WindowProperties\WindowFloating -> True

and resave the palette.

That worked for me on Windows98. The other palettes were not floating.

Thanks for the hint. I found out (1) that I need to set the option
globally, I can't select a specific notebook, as e.g. a palette. Hence
(2) all notebooks receive that option - call it notebook democracy - and
a palette still vanishes behind other notebooks (at least it stays on
top of windows of other applications).

What I was looking for was a command like "always on top" especially for
palettes because just the palettes I'd like to have available all the
time on top.

Regards,
Wolfgang
