My application consists of a main, full screen form and I create tabs which contain other forms on the fly. I want to create a help form that, when instantiated, stays on top but not necessarily in focus, and is draggable around the screen.

All my attempts either create modal forms that keep focus or ones that disappear behind others when you click outside of them.

Anyone else done this? Any pointers would be gratefully received...

I've not done it, but does the form AlwaysOnTop property not do what
you want?

Since posting that I "discovered" that setting, but I'm having problems with it. Once I've narrowed it down I'll post again -probably me being silly.
