This would be really helpful. I have to close it to the tray if I need to use my main monitor.

    I am not sure under what scenario this would be useful. If you have lost focus then MP won't see the key press telling it to always be on top.

    Why not rig up your remote control to do an Alt-Tab key press?

    It's not a big deal of course. I just hoped there was some kind of trick around it without turning it off completely.
    I often check stuff online in-between movies or episodes, and it would be useful if I could just turn it off temporarily instead of having to minimize MP to the tray.

    Alt-Tab doesn't work since "Always on top" cancels everything in the backround of MP.

    Sorry to interrupt you guys and it is kinda off-topic maybe but is it possible to minimize MP to tray with Alt+Tab?
    Thanks!

    The scenario is that I got MP in fullscreen and maybe wanna have a short look on a website with a browser. So I press ALT+F4 an MP will minimize to tray and if I finished looking up stuff I go to tray and click on the MP icon and it gets fullscreen again?

    Sorry for the asking but I can't test it at the moment.

    Yes that's exactly how it works.

    No don't worry, I'm glad to be of service. :)

    Also, could you use the "browse the web" plugin for using the Internet. It is very usable with both the remote and the mouse.

    I made some updates to the Wiki page describing the <import> and <include> tags, including adding a couple of new xml examples. For the first example, I highlighted the example text and eventually found the location in the menus where I could select the CODE macro to have the example text formatted as a code example. So far, so good...
