Opening subvi frontpanel as the foremost window

I am using an external software to run a subvi. I want this subvi to appear ahead of all other windows when called. I am using the vi property node FP.IsFrontmost and I have the vi properties set up in a custom modal configuration. However, when the vi is called it appears in front of all other labview vis but does not appear in front of any non-labview windows. Is there any way to extend the reach of FP.IsFrontmost outside of just labview software? I am using labview 2010 but I can use 2022 Q3 alternatively if there is no solution for 2010.

Are you on Windows?
Then maybe use Call Library Node with user32.dll.

Function FindWindowA wired into Function SetForegroundWindow.
