Problem

Solutions: The active window always appears in the foreground, which means it might overlap non-active windows, partially or completely obscuring them.

An active window can easily be distinguished from inactive windows, because the title bar is a different color or intensity.

The active window cannot be covered by any other window, but you can move part of the active application window beyond the borders of the desktop, thereby forcing some of the window's contents outside your view.


When you work with another application, you must select its application window to make it the active window.

When the application window you want to switch to is visible, the easiest selection method is to click it with the mouse, or use key combinations to cycle through open applications until you reach it.

Active window is the window or icon to which the next keystroke or command will apply.
