How can I keep my app in front on the screen?

When certain functions are called such as uigetfile() or uigetdir() after the file or directory is chosen the AD generated app goes behind other windows that may be on the screen. How can I bring it back to the front?

figure(app.MyApp);

didn't work.

Also pressing enter rather than mouse clicking to get the default can result in the next popup query [ uiconfirm() or uigetfile() ] coming up behind the application and thus not responding to the enter key. Focus has been lost!

A few other people have reported this problem.

Unfortunately I do not recall any solutions having been posted.

In App Designer, select your UIFigure in the component browser. set the WindowStyle to "alwaysontop".

Alternatively, you can use the focus command.
