Hello.
I'd suggest to add the option to "Bring to front" the Menu Window (i.e. the one opening at Fet start) when it's superimposed by other windows. It could be done by clicking the Menu Windows to activate it, if possible.
In my experience it should be very comfortable when working with small screens (laptops) and having the need to check the generated timetable taking several windows opened at the same time (teachers, rooms, students etc.).
At moment it seems that I have to close or move off screen the other windows just to access the option in the Menu Window.
I don't know if that was already covered before. In this case excuse me.

Best regards and thanks for this great software.

Hello! Thank you for the appreciation!

This behavior is dictated by the operating system / windowing system. On my GNU/Linux XFCE, I can click on the main window and it shows, even if I have other timetable view dialogs. If I remember correctly, on Windows the timetable views are in front of the main window. I think I cannot modify this behavior, but I will look a bit at the options.

I will add your words in the list of suggestions (TODO file).

Yes it is a Windows "feature".
I think that a simple turnaround could be adding menu shortcuts for some options such as: Data->"All time constraints", "All space constraints" etc.
Maybe these shortcuts could be set by user?

Thank you and best regards
