That's strange. It's working for me, topmost or not, on a Linux system. Sounds like 'selectWindow("B&C")' fails and then 'setLocation(0,0)' is working on the topmost window.

Have you tried a Windows workaround like this?:

It shows up in the Windows 7 toolbars list but isn't anywhere on the screen, even pushed way off to one or the other side. Other windows, such as Threshold, are fine. He rebooted the computer and changed the screen resolution, but the B&C window is still missing. He started with ImageJ 1.46 but downloaded the daily build of 1.47g with Java 1.6.0_20 and the problem persists.
