How can I keep the interface of my app always in front of other
applications?
I set a timer and do Show() and Update(), but it doesn't bring my interface
to the front if I'm using other windows application.

Hi Bin,
did you try on your main form the property:
"FormStyle" : fsStayonTop
?
This forces your window to stay in front of all others.
Hope this will help

If I only set that, it doesn't work.
However if I combine this with setting a timer and doing Show() & Update(),
it works.
