Richard,
If you want your dialogs to stay on top of the main Inkscape window in WinXP then you need to change that in your options. Inkscape Preferences>Windows>Dialogs stay on top.

Serves me right for not playing around in the menus. Thank you sir, just tried it and it worked nicely!
Now I have a reason to avoid doing real work on a snowy Friday. ;)

That solution fits me for too! Thank you a lot, Heathenx and Richard Querin. That was my problem: constantly bringing dialogs back up. Dialogs on top are easier to manage. What is Compiz? I have Vista and it's a pity I have no experience with Linux (I kid you not). I must. I'm looking forward to next verson, because integrated dialogs are much better. God bless you.

It's a compositing window manager for x-window systems (like Linux). You can read about it at (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compiz). It lets you configure all kinds of fancy desktop effects - some useful, some not so much. You can do a search on Compiz and get all sorts of demo's on YouTube.
I used the dialog or window flipping in the intro to one of my screencasts here: http://screencasters.heathenx.org/episode-011/

You should try out a live CD (no risk to you or your system) just to see what it's like. You can pick up one at http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu
or another one that can actually use Compiz (most live CD's don't) is Sabayon Linux at: http://www.sabayonlinux.org/mod/mirrors
You'd want the 'mini-edition' I believe.
One of the things that's frustrating about Windows is just that you can't configure that much (dunno about Vista, have never tried it) as far as window behaviour goes.
