Popups and Internal Tiles Detached from Window on Mac

This is on the Mac (Verbum latest; MacOs latest). I don't expect any fix for some more years but it does illustrate:

Logos Tools read hot links from windows underneath them creating odd popups on the top window (previously noted).
As below, text boxes get detached from their home panel/window (in the example, the detached text box , a Find box, is over on the left-center, belonging to the right-side moved window).

I very much doubt this is easily repeatable, but does suggest odd Mac-version object referencing in the FL app code.

Logos Tools read hot links from windows underneath them creating odd popups on the top window (previously noted).

I'm not sure what "Logos Tools" is? Can you provide steps to reproduce this (or a link to the previously noted thread)?

As below, text boxes get detached from their home panel/window (in the example, the detached text box , a Find box, is over on the left-center, belonging to the right-side moved window).

The detached Find Bar was a known issue and should be fixed in v38. Are there instances of this other than the Find Bar?

Hi Martin … thank you for the follow-up. I'm on a Mac M1 Sequoia (latest) and 36.6.1 Verbum.

Regarding the wandering Find box, that's his only bad-boy behavior I noted.

Below is an example of the tools issue. In this case, it's the Text Comparison tool:

I'm typing a new reference into the lead Text Comparison (red-bordered tab).
The provided text blanks out while it goes to get the new entries (all is well so far)
At the instant where it begins to fill in the TCs, the ICC popup appears (as below). The popup belongs to the window directly below the in-view window (for the Mac, it's the next one listed in the Mac apps-pinned > right-click Verbum). And the ICC-Mat resource (its popup, in the sample below) is in a Multi-Text (Bible lead; commentaries vertically displayed).
The popup can't be removed by simply clicking somewhere on the top window (it seems to know who it belongs to). You have to click on the popup itself to get rid of it.
The TC continues unaffected and all is well.
