Hi
Hoping to get some help, we have upgraded from 3.20.06 to 5.0.0.2 of Genero/GDC.
In V3 using Open Window to open a new form from the current window would always open into a new window allowing the user to view the parent in the background. After upgrading to V5 all window remain in the current parent window opening open the top.
Is there a setting somewhere to change this directive. Have check FGLPROFILE and its the same setup as V3.
Thanks in advance.
There is no documented setting that you have missed. (unless you have never used windowType="modal" to display one window above another

What you are experiencing is the Top Most Normal Window concept that has been in place for a while where we display the top most normal window and the top most modal window. Have a read of https://4js.com/ask-reuben/ig-187/ for some background.
You are not alone in that there is a subset of our user base that has ...
- never used Web or Mobile Client.
- not participated in 3.00, 3.10, 3.20, 4,00, 5.00 Early Access Programs
- not attended or participated in WWDC events
... and are discovering these User Interface changes as result of finally moving to Universal Rendering, and coming across design decisions we made many years/releases ago.
Contact your local support contact to see what we have in place for customers in a similar position to yourself.
