Palette style window

[John]

  If any one is interested, there is a related bug.  When palette windows are hidden and redrawn, the redraw order of the windows reverses causing any overlapped widows to be positioned incorrectly. Submitted as: http://quality.runrev.com/show_bug.cgi?id=13685 .

Thanks,
John
