[PyQt] Always on top on windows

[Mads Ipsen]

When I launch a QWidget from another widget as

  window_flags = QtCore.Qt.WindowFlags() | QtCore.Qt.Window
  self._widget = QtGui.QWidget(self, QtCore.Qt.Window)
  self._widget.show()

where self is a class inheriting from QWidget, the new widget has self 
as parent but appears in a separate window with its own frame etc.

* On Linux, the parent and child can be active completely independent of 
other.
* On XP, the child is always on top of the parent window.

The XP behavior is dead annoying. Any suggestions on how to get rid of tis'?

Best regards,

Mads

Minimal example app included below:

import sys
from PyQt4 import QtCore, QtGui

class Widget(QtGui.QWidget):
    def __init__(self, parent=None, window_flags=QtCore.Qt.WindowFlags()):
        QtGui.QWidget.__init__(self, parent, window_flags)

        # Add layuot
        layout = QtGui.QVBoxLayout(self)
        self.setLayout(layout)

        # Add a push button
        self._push_button = QtGui.QPushButton('Push me')
        layout.addWidget(self._push_button)

        # Connect it
        self.connect(self._push_button, QtCore.SIGNAL('clicked()'), 
self.clicked)

    def clicked(self):
        window_flags = QtCore.Qt.WindowFlags() | QtCore.Qt.Window
        self._widget = QtGui.QWidget(self, QtCore.Qt.Window)
        self._widget.show()
       

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)

    widget = Widget()
    widget.show()
    sys.exit(app.exec_())
