1. Set the browser.uitour.whitelist.add.testing preference to www-demo3.allizom.org 2. Load https://www-demo3.allizom.org/b/en-US/firefox/australis/update/ 3. Click "Learn more" under "Take the tour" A door hanger drops down from a grey icon with 3 horizontal bars. 4. Open another application, attempt to move that application over the browser, and focus the new application. Expected results: The new application is above all the browser windows, or temporary browser windows close. The door hanger should probably close on focus out. Actual results: The door hanger from the browser is above the new application.

I can probably just explicitly set @level="parent" on the panels since I think the issue is that Linux default to "top"[1]. Can you give that a try? > The door hanger should probably close on focus out. We intentionally don't close the menu by setting @noautohide but it shouldn't appear above other applications.

Can you give that a try? I can try a patch. I wouldn't know where to add @level="parent". Watch out for bug 835044. If that gets in the way, I can create a new patch for that next week. That is currently unused code, so it would need some testing.
I tried toggling ui.panel.default_level_parent but it didn't change the behaviour reported in comment 0.

Noautohide panels are at parent level by default. But this should be fixed by bug 966072, no?
(In reply to Neil Deakin from comment #5) > Noautohide panels are at parent level by default. > > But this should be fixed by bug 966072, no? Judging by stuff like bug 977125, it doesn't seem fixed...
Bug 977125 is not the same issue.
(In reply to Neil Deakin from comment #7) > Bug 977125 is not the same issue. Hrm, but I would have expected it to behave the same there... anyway, it does seem like this is fixed even if bug 977125 is still an issue. Also, I'm seeing weird graphics glitches when letting the tour open the panel which I'm not seeing when I open it myself... but I'll file another bug for that.
