Stephane & Adion, can you fix a bug with pop up windows which open underneath the skin (so they're hidden by the skin)?
This bug is spoiling a great new feature, and also preventing djdad's Skin Builder from being finished.
Thank you in advance for your hard work.

if its windows apps hanging on screen, you need to disable windows aero or desktop composition. (on both win 7 and 8/8.1)

DO NOT disable aero and address the problem whatever it is. Disabling aero for VDJ8 is NOT a good thing. If you have aero disabled then enable it. For VDJ8 specifically it helps to reduce CPU usage and allows for smoother playback. More recent builds seem to have gotten better in this respect though.

Windows apps? No, this is related to skin code.
VDJ 8 has the ability to open pop up windows separate to the main skin, that can be moved and resized. This allows them to be placed on a second screen for example.
So you could have e.g. a browser or sampler window which is not attached to the skin, but can float above/over it, or be moved somewhere else.
The problem is that they don't always open over the GUI, but under it - between the software and the desktop, where you can't see them.

One can also do something like this:
The image is used as the background for the window and the sample pads located where the physical ones would be.

I will check but fairly certain I reported this a while ago.
You could try adding "& load_skin" after initiating the window to open. I seem to remember this working as a work around for now.

Just tried - yes that works, but it slows everything down.

Yeah I agree it isn't perfect. My tests only have a minor visual glitch but it does need addressing.
Just checked and it is in the bug tracker but I have no idea where it sits on the priority order. Just have to sit patiently.
