I use attachwindows to put a small window below my TEDIT window.  I then put a title on the small window.  Because titles appear ABOVE their window, my title is obscured by its MAINWINDOW.  It pops up disconcertingly whenever I interact with the small attached window.'
'
Could the title''s behaviour (whether it appears above the window or  just inside it) be switch-controlled?'

I would suggest he create a titled window in the first place.  I would put a pretty low priority on switching the behavior.'
