I fixed the Deactivate event form forms in CVS.
Your control works fine for me now, once you fix the dangling pointer in 
lostfocus procedure.

The fsStayOnTop cannot be implemented in Linux, as the window manager 
philosophy is quite different from Windows (and I am thankful for that).
User may choose what window stays on top, not appliaction, and I like it.

But maybe I am wrong and it can be done, you never know.

FYI, Kylix also ignores the fsStayOnTop and its form never stays on top 
as well.
