Hi! When running under MS-Windows, `emacsclient' doesn't raise the Emacs frame above other non-Emacs windows. Under other system (like NS) it does. runemacs -Q M-x start-server RET Place another window on top of the Emacs frame In a command-line window: emacslient . RET Now, the Emacs icon in the Windows task bar is highlighted. When clicking on it, the entry for the frame blinks. However, the Emacs frame is still behind the other window. What I expected was that the frame should be brought to the front. I also noticed that on Windows, `(raise-frame)' only raises the Emacs frame above other Emacs frames but not above other non-Emacs windows. -- Anders Lindgren In GNU Emacs 25.0.94.2 (x86_64-w64-mingw32) of 2016-05-26 built on KAEL Windowing system distributor 'Microsoft Corp.', version 6.1.7601 Configured using: 'configure --prefix=/tmp/emacs --without-imagemagick 'CFLAGS=-O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -g0'' Configured features: XPM JPEG TIFF GIF PNG RSVG SOUND DBUS NOTIFY ACL GNUTLS LIBXML2 ZLIB TOOLKIT_SCROLL_BARS Important settings: value of $LANG: SVE locale-coding-system: cp1252 Major mode: Dired by name Minor modes in effect: tooltip-mode: t global-eldoc-mode: t electric-indent-mode: t mouse-wheel-mode: t tool-bar-mode: t menu-bar-mode: t file-name-shadow-mode: t global-font-lock-mode: t font-lock-mode: t blink-cursor-mode: t auto-composition-mode: t auto-encryption-mode: t auto-compression-mode: t buffer-read-only: t line-number-mode: t transient-mark-mode: t Recent messages: For information about GNU Emacs and the GNU system, type C-h C-a.
