You are not losing topmost status, but yes, on Windows CE 5, a topmost
window will get a WM_NCACTIVATE and a WM_ACTIVATE message when another
topmost window comes in front of it. You are just not the top of the
topmost windows. It seems that you may need to read-up on what topmost is
all about and play around with ordinary windows being topmost or not.
Topmost windows are a class of windows, not a single window on the device.
You can half half-a-dozen topmost windows at a time. It should be obvious
that only one is going to be the top window of that group, just as on
Windows on the desktop, you have a stack of windows with the active window
on top, but potentially still have the Start menu above those windows (the
Start menu is part of the taskbar which is topmost by default in Windows).
