Well, this is matter of Java not a J-link.

Solution could be to set JDialog always on top (see docs Window (Java Platform SE 7 )).

If you need your dialog to be shown on top of Creo only, you will probably have to make windows event hook using JNI (or JNA) and user32.dll library, but I cant give you any example, you will have to search for solution on internet.

If you are using Swing tool then it is normal behaviour. You can set Swing dialog AlwaysOnTop.

You have to search on the internet. This can be useful java - Is it possible to bring JFrame to front but NOT focus? - Stack Overflow

Try this: java - JOptionPane won't show its dialog on top of other windows - Stack Overflow

But if you need only to display info use session.UIShowMessageDialog instead.
