Comment:
Both of the new patches work on my Mac (which has Qt 5.15.2), but it works too well. The help dlog stays on top even when I switch to a different app, like to my web browser. Yikes!
By itself, the call to help_dlg->setWindowState(Qt::WindowState::WindowActive); doesn't bring it to the front. Maybe need something like help_dlg->bringToFront();
Re. modal dialogs - I don't understand how you can trigger the help/options dlogs on someone else's client, but I haven't played multi-player so I wouldn't know.

Help, diplomacy dlogs get hidden when you click on the main window (usually the map window F1, but also others like research F6 or Nations F3). Especially bad for the help dlog because you then can never see it again unless you turn off Fullscreen and resize the map window to make it smaller. Those dlogs should be modal or at least always on top.
Chippo chiph****@gmail***** says he sees the same bug on Linux/Openbox, but not on Linux/wayland-gnome-something.
