How do you make a Lazarus application window stay on top of other
application windows? This is something I want the user to be able to
enable or disable at run time, using a button on the form.

Using Delphi I think (but cannot verify) that you could just change
FormStyle on the fly to fsStayOnTop/fsNormal. But this does not seem
to have an effect (using 0.9.26 under Windows.) Perhaps this is the
wrong way to go about it?

I guess it has something to do with this.

Yes you are probably right, although I could not even get a non-modal
dialog to stay on top of my application's main window if I set the
property at runtime.
