Re: y-or-n dialog box hides behind frame when trying to reach it.

    However, when I use the window system behavior
    "point-in-window-to-make-active" (as opposed to "click-in-window...")
    the resulting behavior is less nice. The box comes up nicely, but
    as soon as I try to approach it with the mouse, the box lowers itself
    behind the current frame and gets invisible (or perhaps I should say
    that the selected frame raises itself by the mouse motion?)

Moving the mouse does not normally raise or lower any windows, but you
seem to expect it to raise and lower them.  Why does it do that?

    (According to the "style manager - window" box, one can turn off the
    "raise-window-when-made-active" switch, 

I guess that switch is the cause of the problem.

I am not sure if there is something Emacs can do to prevent
itself from being auto-raised over its dialog box.
Does anyone know?
