EA Team--
How about an option to use a non-modal help window?
(Note that this is not a pure use of the word "modal"; but, it suffices.)
For example, right now with EA 5.0 on WindowsXP Pro, suppose one has an EA Model Window open and an EA Help Window open. Futher suppose that one currently is viewing and has focus set to the maximized EA Help Window. In this case, note that one cannot use ALT+TAB to switch to the EA Model Window.
One way to solve this might be to do something like VS.NET 2003 does, where they offer the user the option to use Internal Help (which opens in the self-same environment as the code base) or use External Help (which opens in a completely different window).
I just thought this might be nice.
Thank you.
