 ## Usage Notes
 
-> **Note:**  
+> **Note:**
 > The plugin dynamically replaces the placeholder `$UserInput$` in action keys with the current input text. It also escapes special characters (such as double quotes) to ensure the resulting Rainmeter command is valid.
 
-> **Warning:**  
+> **InputTextX** is incompatible with skins set to **Stay Topmost**, or **AlwaysOnTop=2**, as the conflict between the input field, which requires "focus", and the constant attempts by the skin to stay on "top", in front of the input field, will not allow InputTextX to function correctly.
+
+> **Warning:**
 > Ensure that your custom commands (especially those using `$UserInput$`) are properly formatted. Improper command syntax may cause unexpected behavior in Rainmeter.

 ## Troubleshooting
 
-- **Crash on Input:**  
-  If Rainmeter crashes when submitting input, enable logging by setting `Logging=1` to view the final command strings in the Rainmeter log. Verify that the commands are correctly formed.
-
-- **No Command Execution:**  
-  Double-check the action keys (e.g., `OnEnterAction`, `OnESCAction`) in your skin configuration. They must contain valid Rainmeter commands.
