Okay then, I'll answer my own problem.

Before displaying the window I first need to ensure that my application is the frontmost. To do this simply send [NSApp activateIgnoringOtherApps:YES];.

It is also possible to get the current key and main windows if any using the NSApplication Class and return those back when your window is removed.

I have a status menu item that displays a NSBorderlessWindowMask window. When the time comes to display the window I use [flipWindow makeKeyAndOrderFront:sender]; but this just displays the window on screen above all other windows but does not make it active or the main window. I have canBecomeKeyWindow and canBecomeMainWindow returning true.

Also when I orderOut the window disappears but no windows beneath it become active. I would like to return the active window back to that before my app was called, if any.
Thanks
Philip
