Thx!
Let me get this right...You want the window to stay at the bottom of the "windows" stack right?
well you see qt doesn't have a direct flag for this. However you could use a few tools to get this done: (for X11 only)
1. if using KDE use the porgram kstart like this
kstart --onbottom <program name>
just do kstart --help to get the entire list
2. you can download the program wmctrl (called window manager control) from the net...google it out, first match i think! use it in a similar manner.
With kstart you can start a program and set it's window parameters but wmctrl works only with already existing windows
eg. with kstart you can start a program and shift it to another desktop screen but not with wmctrl.
3. use the _NET_WM hints to set the window properties (read more of this on www.freedesktop.org) using xlib.
as for windows, i don't know how to achieve this effect, It being a closed system not much info is easily available, try on some window specific groups....maybe the MFC classes could be used....but then portability becomes an issue. ;)
