Thank you for reporting a bug to Unity. We have reviewed the issue carefully, and in this case, the team is unable to prioritize fixing this bug. There are a number of reasons we make this decision, including the impact and severity of the issue across our user and customer base, and the possibility that future plans may solve the problem in a different way, or that a workaround for the bug may be available. Today we will be closing this case. Thank you again for taking the time to report this issue, and please let us know if there is anything else that changes the impact or severity of this issue.

How to reproduce:
1. Open the Unity Editor and any pop-up menu (e.g. Gizmos menu in the Scene View)
2. Take a macOS screenshot (Cmd+Shift+5 or Cmd+Shift+4)
3. With the pop-up menu opened, click the floating screenshot thumbnail to open the full macOS Screenshot markup window
4. Observe the results

Expected results: The macOS Screenshot markup window stays in front since it's the focused window, and Unity's dropdown/popup menu appears behind it or not at all until the Screenshot window is dismissed
Actual results: The Unity dropdown/popup menu renders on top of the macOS Screenshot markup window, regardless of which menu is opened

Reproducible with: 6000.0.81f1, 6000.3.17f1, 6000.5.10f1, 6000.6.0b9, 6000.7.0a5

Reproducible on: macOS Tahoe 26 (M1)
Not reproducible on: No other environment tested

Note: Not specific to the Gizmos dropdown, it reproduces with any Unity Editor dropdown/popup menu, indicating Unity's floating menu windows ignore normal macOS window-focus/z-order rules relative to other frontmost apps
