Have you ever found yourself reading a document while using a note-taking app, wishing you could keep the app window floating? It could be frustrating when the window disappears as soon as you click outside of it.

Fortunately, there’s a simple solution using AutoHotKey(AHK). While you can find installation instructions elsewhere, I’ll share the script that solves this problem.

Create an AHK script and write following code:

1
2
3
4

^space::
{
    WinSetAlwaysOnTop -1, "A"
}

Once you save and run the script, you can “pin” any active window by pressing Ctrl+Space. Using the same keyboard shortcut will toggle the window between pinned and unpinned states.
