Modal JDialog + Notes

Does anyone know of a way to make a Modal JDialog appear on top of Notes?

I have attempted the following, none of which actually brought the dialog to the front.

requestFocus();

requestFocus(true);

toFront();

requestFocusInWindow();

requestFocusInWindow(true);

setAlwaysOnTop();

setModal(true);

None of them seem to bring it to the front. Is there some sort of combination of methods I need to use?

Has anyone accomplished this?

edit This always happens, I figure it out after I post…Simple solution:

requestFocus();

toFront();
