I'm looking for a way to make a WPF window stay on top of a fullscreen UWP app. I found numerous mentions of Window.Topmost, but it only works with a windowed app.
For a little bit of context, the idea is to create a virtual keyboard that I could launch from the app (with a brokered runtime component). I do know that there are some keyboard implementations, but they don't do the trick since they basically edit the textboxes themselves (and I need it to be able to also interact with WebViews).
Thanks :)

I want to do the terminal (just command line / powershell / ssh), where user can work as usual, but also I want a handler which can control and impact on everything that is happening in terminal (input and output) and perform some actions with interface.
What is a better approach to implement it with Windows Forms?
I tried to use https://github.com/dwmkerr/consolecontrol, but can't find how to make normal terminal (where arrows, tab and color work)?
Many thanks.

I want to display another application's window that is running concurrently in my WPF application. Like a live display, I need to be able to see real-time changes to the window (in this case, Chrome's) even if it is hidden behind other windows while my WPF application is running. It's kind of like the image below:
I understand I have to get the window's handle first, but how would I be able to display an external window like this? Is there a way I can use the Win32 API for this function?
Try looking into the Frame element (documentation here).

is it possible to create a permanent notification at the notification bar in Windows 10?
Also it is necessary to do this in a windows form application and not an universal windows app.
Thanks for you help.
To do it in a WinForms app you'll need to use the desktop bridge to create the notifications.
It's not possible to have a toast that can't be dismissed from the action centre (which is what I assume you mean by "notifications area") but you can detect when it's removed and then add another back in. There are already a number of apps which do this as a way of having "permanent notifications".

Somebody know how to add a button on top right corner of any windows app loaded?, and manage a controller to interacting with them.
Really what I want is a method to set the property "Always on top" of any form.
I appreciate any help to do this posible... :)
(my programing language is c#)
It is possible to do so but prepare yourself to get dirty. Really dirty.
See this CodeProject article: Add Your Control On Top Another Application. Basically that guy is drawing a kind of custom control into another app's title bar.
In addition to this, this article about global system hooks might get handy for you as well.

I am creating a program that displays song lyrics using WPF. I want to use videos as the background(using VLC player). How can I overlay the lyrics over the video background?
Thanks in advance.
This may not be possible directly in WPF. I assume that you would need a WinformsHost to host the VLC player. It's a known issue(limitation) that WPF controls and winforms can't share the same screen area(airspace limitation). However there are many workarounds for this limitation, one of them being adding 2 WPF windows overlayed.
Alternatively you can try upgrading to WPF 4.5(Using VS-2012), this issue seems to b e fixed there.
