 Autocad is a vector drawing program and so demands a lot of resources when active. Periscope is an add-on utility that shows tool tip windows when the cursor is over an vector object. It displays such info as the object's type, color, length, area or elevation. Very helpful. I had used the add-on without any problem while running Actual Windows Manager. But something happened. Perhaps fiddling with the priorities started it. Now the Periscope tool tip windows work but the windows are behind the Autocad window and invisible. The only remedy seems to be to shut down AWM completely before running Autocad. Placing Autocad on the Excluded Windows list does not help. Nor does making a "do nothing" entry in the Specific Windows list.

Is there some setting that might correct this situation?

 What version of AWM do you run? And can you specify how does this Periscope add-on look - like an .exe or like a .dll?
