  49.     This page lets you customize the way windows are handled in GIMP.
  50.     You should note that GIMP does not manipulate windows directly,
  51.     instead it sends requests to the window manager (i. e., to Windows
  52.     if you are running in Windows; to Metacity if you are running in a
  53.     standard Gnome setup in Linux; etc).  Because there are many window
  54.     managers, and not all of them are well behaved, it cannot be
  55.     guaranteed that the functions described here will actually work as
  56.     described.  However, if you are using a modern,
  57.     standards-compliant window manager, they ought to.

  77.             The choices you make here determine how the Toolbox, and the
  78.             docks that hold dialogs, will be treated.  If you choose
  79.             "Normal Window", they will be treated like any other
  80.             windows.  If you choose "Utility Window", they will be
  81.             raised into visibility whenever you activate an image
  82.             window, and kept in front of every image window.  If you
  83.             choose "Keep above", they will be kept in front of every
  84.             other window at all times.  Note that changes you make here
  85.             will not take effect until the next time you start GIMP.

  100.             Normally, when you focus an image window (usually
  101.             indicated by a change in the color of the frame), it
  102.             becomes the "active image" for GIMP, and therefore the
  103.             target for any image-related actions you perform.  Some
  104.             people, though, prefer to set up their window managers
  105.             such that any window entered by the pointer is
  106.             automatically focused.  If you do this, you may find that
  107.             it is inconvenient for focused images to automatically
  108.             become active, and may be happier if you uncheck this
  109.             option.
