Description

When using a modal dialog and then show the Velocity Viewer, the Viewer is between the main window and the modal dialog.
You can't bring the viewer in foreground. When you click to the dialog, you don't have any possibilities to reach the viewer again without closing the dialog.
I've tested this with your sample solution (see screenshot).
On Windows all works fine, but on Mac the issue appears.
Can you bring the viewer in foreground again?

This is a Mac OS X issue which happens with most modal dialogs. Not much I can do here at the component level.

One thing you can do is put the Viewer in a Servoy form in a JPanel, and use renderToComponent, this way you can open it in another modal dialog from your modal dialog.
