This might even help with the original writers problem so uncheck the always on top option.

Unchecking that box is to prevent the "Intermission Display" from showing when using only 1 disply and not hooked to a 2nd one. It has nothing to do with the "preview window" from the Playlist overlaying on top of the Display when it is full-screen. However, it must have been that "Gremlin". Finally, turned on my laptop tonight, doubled-clicked the Singers Display to make it full screen & the "preview screen" did not appear on top. WEIRD.....but I'M HAPPY!

Your thinking off the tick box in the intermission tab for always on.
From the preview tab, there are 2 tick boxes, 1 to undock the display and the other to make it always on top if it is undocked.

This is printed in the manuel: If you want the undocked Preview Display to always be above other applications, click Always on top.
It was introduced in version 5.02: this is printed in the list of changes: CHANGED Undocked Preview Display "Always On Top" - We added a new checkbox in the Tools menu > Show Display dialog > Preview Display tab to allow those who want the Preview Display to always be on top to click it. When unclicked, the Display does not appear over other application screens.

You're right. I was looking in the right place, but explaining the other. I unchecked "always on top" and the window no longer appears over the singers display. The strange thing is that it didn't appear last night while the box was still checked. I did read it but it just didn't sink in. Too easy! Thanks!
