Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
No. No problem.

Describe the solution you'd like
I thought I'd seen the option to keep the CherryTree window Always On Top (to keep the window always in focus, for example making notes while coding in a separate app).

I've gone through the on-line manual and can't find anything. Everything about "top" that i've found is related to Node management.

Thank you!

I'm not sure if windows desktop allows to set any window as always on top or you have to do something in the specific app, I'll have a look.

Thank you so much for your prompt reply!

Windows actually does allow it. There are also 3rd party apps which enable it, but I've tried them, and what i tried was kind of "clunky", or "janky" if those words mean anything to anyone! lol. In any case, this resource came up when i googled. looks like he's providing some AutoHotKey script... i've never used that app, but it might give you some insight (i hear it's a great app for repetitious coding if you can learn to utilize it)?

Apps that I can think of which have it integrated?
-- Notepad2 - a Scintilla-based text editor
-- Sysinternals - Process Explorer
-- IrfanView - image viewer app.

Just a few off the top of my head.

Best wishes, and thank you very much for CherryTree. It's really awesome! I used to use FlashNote by Softvoile, but i'm afraid-- for a great a guy as Nokolay is, his focus is on his other apps like FlashPaste (which i really like, BTW). Once I discovered CherryTree, i haven't looked back in terms of this type of app. Very nice. Well done and thoughtful!

Hey there, G! Just wanted to throw this out there, in case you've ever worked with Firefox extensions in case that could provide any insight.
