Bug: selection menu persists when I switch programs (Logos 10.0 on Windows 10)

This is an annoying bug that has been around since Logos 8. I reported it for Logos 8 here: https://community.logos.com/forums/t/183251.aspx. I cannot believe that it is still around two generations later in Logos-land.

When I switch from Logos to another program using the Alt+Tab key, the Logos selection menu does not go away. It stays on top of whatever program I change the focus to. The only way to get rid of it is to switch back to Logos and click someone on the program.

From my experimenting, this bug does not occur when I change the focus to a different program with the mouse. It only happens if I use Alt+Tab, which I do a lot (e.g. when changing from Logos to my Microsoft Word, while I am writing.

In earlier Logos versions, this bug would occur with the updates list and the Context menu. Logos has fixed the persistent pop-up with those, but not with the Context menu.

*Windows 10 and Logos 10

    Yep ... this week I had the Disk Utility (Mac-MBP)  slide in-between the context menu, and the main Verbum window (sneaky little fellow). More accurately the context menu refused to defer to the active app.

    Thanks for raising this issue again. It appears that when the problem was investigated before, the developers were unable to recreate the problem and the case was closed. I had no difficulties recreating the issue, so I have opened a new case so we can take another look.
