foobar always on top

hey guys, this is a weird issue cause i noticed it only started happening a month or two ago out of the blue and I don't think I had updated or changed any settings in foobar at the time.

anyway im on windows 7 64 bit
if foobar is open and shows in my task bar it always stays on top, I can't see ANY other aplication overtop of it, even if I alt+tab/maximise/fullscreen an applilcation or open up a new one.

the only way I can see anything else is if I actually resize the foobar window (pretty pointless really) or click minimize which will take it off my taskbar and put it in the icon tray in the corner.

Its no big deal but is slightly irksome when i want to just drag some tunes in from another folder, or alt tab between foobar and any other apps (can't alt tab to foobar when its minimized), and I know it used to work as it should, any ideas on what might be causing this?

edit: this happened when i had foobar 1.1.7 or whatever, today i tried updating to 1.1.11 but still getting the same issue.

Are you sure? I can't find the "poke about" item, even when I shift-click.

"poke about" means have a look at the menu - not an actual option!

I'm guessing Spacious Mind has got always on top enabled (View-> Always on Top)

hahaha! oh man now I feel like a fool

Didn't even think to poke about in that menu as I hadnt changed anything intentionally in the first place.
Thanks!
