WPF 4.5
I've got an app where I show a modal Window from my app's main Window by instantiating it, setting its owner to be the main Window, and then calling ShowDialog(). The modal Window has "Topmost=true". The main Window does not.
When I run my app the modal Window shows in front of the main Window, and it is kept in front of the main Window just as expected. However, I can simply click on the main Window behind the modal Window to Activate the main Window and manipulate it...I can even close it!
In my humble opinion this is definitely not the desired behavior for an application with a modal Window. I'm confused as to why WPF handles it this way. More important, I need a solution that will keep the modal Window in front while also blocking access to the main Window behind it (isn't that supposed to be a basic function of a modal Window?)
I believe this desired behavior has always been the default behavior when using ShowDialog in WinForms (way back in the day.) What am I missing here, and how can I get this working with WPF?
