Post From: Any solution for jumpy chart windows on SC v.2867 on Mac/Crossover?

The second after updating to the latest SC built is that chart windows do not stay in its layered order when switching between chart books or reopening them. I have charts that sit below my main execution chart that I only look at occasionally but when I switch Chartbooks the order is changing do charts that used to stay below tare now appearing on top. I tried to change the order of charts (Ctrl. W) but it seems to have no impact. In prior builds of SC I never had to re-arrange any Chartbooks after the SC application was reopened- neither its lateral position nor its layered order.
Are there any other settings that I missed to get the old behavior back without having to revert to an older built?
Regarding this, how is this setting set:
General Settings Window: Destroy Chart Windows when Hidden (Global Settings >> General Settings >> GUI >> Application GUI)

In your case, make sure this is set to No.
