“Always on Top” Windows Pivot

Hello,
      I am developing a small desktop app using pivot, and my app window
need to stay on top even if the user selects other window.
Is there a way to do this in Pivot.
I found a way to do this in JFrame, but I dont know how to port this in
Pivot.

You call call setAlwaysOnTop() on the host frame:

  http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/awt/Window.html#setAlwaysOnTop(boolean)

First get the DisplayHost component that contains the display by calling Display#getDisplayHost(), and then you can get the root AWT Frame from that.
