I get the same thing on both.

Benoit, shouldn't the Balloon window be Stacking = Window.Above or TopOnly
= True to force it to be above the calling objects window?
It does not do that so I think for many the failure to see it it not that
it is not showing but more it's hidden behind the window.

On my system it not only shows behind but it moves when i move the window
so remains hidden.  I discovered this with a balloon that was on the edge
of the window so partly showing.

I changed my balloons to be TopOnly...

Seems to be good, Now i'm seeing balloons appear that i forgot I coded.
