If a window is ordered out, AppKit will not order it back in when the app is
activated. Is it possible that a different window is created, or that the
window was not ordered out to begin with?
I'm confused when you say that an ordered-out window is the key window. That
should not be possible.
Is it possible that one of the windows is set to hide on deactivate? The
visibility of hideOnDeactivate windows is controlled by the window server. A
window that is hideOnDeactivate does not get ordered out when the app is
deactivated: it is merely hidden.
Hope this helps,
