Hi, I'm trying to implement minimize-to-tray but my application refuses to hide from taskbar. I've distilled the problematic code down to this little snippet, attached .ui-file.
import sys, os
from PyQt4 import uic
from PyQt4.QtGui import QMainWindow, QApplication
class MyClass(QMainWindow):
def __init__(self, parent = None):
QMainWindow.__init__(self, parent)
self.ui = uic.loadUi(os.path.join("gui",
"timeTrackerClientGUI.ui"), self)
def hideEvent(self, event):
self.hide()
if __name__ == '__main__':
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
wnd = MyClass()
wnd.show()
app.exec_()
According to
http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/static/Docs/PyQt4/html/qwidget.html#hideEvent
I get a hideEvent when the user minimizes the window and that part
works, but self.hide() doesn't hide my window from the taskbar. It's
working fine in Linux, but in Windows 7 it refuses to hide. It looks
like one icon hides but then another one pops up beside it, if I click
quick enough you get this flickering effect I managed to catch in a
screenshot, http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3184097/problem2.png
I'm stumped, thought this would be simple to do.
Kind regards
