This might seem like a small issue but I find it annoying nonetheless.  I use the command line to launch a connection to a PC from another application.  When I do this, the dialog box to enter the password  comes up hidden underneath any other windows I might have open so I have to hunt for it, or minimize everything on my desktop and then find it.

Any way you could make that password dialog open on top?  Thanks.

Hello Ralph,

Thank you for your post.

You can include the password when you launch a connection from command line. See "Example 1" on this page.

Still, I will forward this issue to our development for testing and possible fixing.

Thanks for getting back to me and for looking in to this. True, I could rewrite the script that launches the viewer from the other application, have it pop up a password prompt and then include it in the command line.  I could also save passwords for each connection in the viewer.  So these are two approaches, but it would also be good see if the password dialog could pop up on top.

Sure, we will examine this issue and fix it in one of the subsequent program updates.
