Description

Currently ACAT has a "feature" that ensures that all ACAT windows are always above all other windows on the system while it is running. this is to prevent accidental context switching for people who are using it to communicate.

The downside of this feature is that developers who only have a single monitor are unable to step debug the code because they are unable to context switch to their IDE.

We need someone to investigate how the "always on top" functionality works, and re-configure it to either be a runtime switch through a preferences change, or disable it if in Debug configuration.
