Hi Mario,

concerning "z projection", I have never experienced the
problem of the result not being the foreground window.

Maybe you are using an old version of ImageJ? There was a race
condition problem in ImageJ versions prior to 1.39f (it seems
that this bugfix is not mentioned in the release notes).
This might have caused the problem that you describe.

Michael
