How Do I Keep A JFrame Above All Other Applications (That have open or will open) Such As Powerpoint

Question

I am creating a news ticker (that narrow, black box at the bottom of the screen that stretches the length of the screen with text of other news that scrolls by). My application opens other programs. In this case, the powerpoint presentation it opens, opens over my jframe. I need my jframe to always be visible Any ideas?

Answer 1

myFrame.setAlwaysOnTop(true);

Answer 2

You could use Window#setAlwaysOnTop:

Sets whether this window should always be above other windows.

myJFrame.setAlwaysOnTop(true);
