Hi,

Using Skydemon 3.15.1.0 on windows, I'm reading some documents. So I click on the documents, the popup window opens, and I slowly go through the various docs I want to read. A few times, skydemon was 'hanging' when I came back to the document browser. Whatever I do, windows beeps at me as the window is not active.

I think what happens is that skydemon tried to open the 'are you still there?' popup, that failed (at least I don't see it), but the document window, and the main skydemon window both refuse all input (my guess: because the AYT-popup took the input away) . alt-f4 is also not working.

When I open the taskmanager to stop SD, and restart, everything is back to normal.

You may not care, but we care. We have alternative licenses available if you wish your SkyDemon to remain open as a permanent briefing facility, but that's not how regular SkyDemon is designed to be used (permanently connected).
