OS/2 used them with version 2.1 when MS still stood with Windows 3.1x. I can't think of anything which would be much worse for a programer to do than to change a program so that trying to close it in the usual manner would not. Agreed... Whats wrong with minimizing the normal way or if you want an option which might even exist is to make the minimize goto the system tray... However shutdown gui is Shutdown... it would be very annoying to have one program do it different from others, especially if its one often used. -- Best regards, tracer Using theBAT 1.54 Beta/31 mail to : [EMAIL PROTECTED] using FireTalk: 321338 LOCAL phone: 271194 -- _ Archives : http://tbbeta.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Wish List : http://wish.thebat.dutaint.com BugTraq: https://bt.ritlabs.com/

It's _your_ opinion. OK. Mine is that I would appreciate an option to have the choice.

Hi Dierk, On 8 février 2002 à 23:10:22, you wrote : DH If you haven't read Peter's mail, he wrote about defining a System DH Wide Hotkey. Of course I have read the mail because I answered to it. DH You will find this item in the Options menu in TB!. DH There is an entry to define a keyboard shortcut to minimise/restore DH TB!. Thanks. I know. But I was asking for another way to hide when closing like some other softwares. DH I for my part don't use TB!'s possibility for this as I have installed DH PowerPro which offers system wide hotkeys at the system level (BTW, DH thanks, Allie, for the tip!). With PowerPro you could even define a DH shortcut using a keyboard/mouse combi - this way I could emulate the DH only Macintosh feature I like, rolling up a window into its title DH bar. Thanks for the tip. I'll have a look ;-) -- Greetings, Ericmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! v1.54 Beta/36 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 -- _ Archives : http://tbbeta.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Wish List : http://wish.thebat.dutaint.com BugTraq: https://bt.ritlabs.com/

Hello Nick, On 9 février 2002 à 01:32:39, you wrote : I'd like seeing another setting in Option/Preference : Hide The Bat! on Exit NA What exactly do you mean by exit... close down? Obviously not, NA because then TB would really be hidden. ;o) Yes. Like with Pocomail, Audiogalaxy, eDonKey... when I close these programs they are (can be) automatically reduced as an icon in the notification bar. I'd like to have on option (like in Pocomail) because I want The Bat! to be always active... and I don't want my wife or my children closing The Bat! NA I may misunderstand what you are after, but I presume you mean 'minimise' NA in which case there already is a section under Preferences that covers NA that topic. I know. That's not what I mean. -- Greetings, Ericmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! v1.54 Beta/36 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 -- _ Archives : http://tbbeta.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Wish List : http://wish.thebat.dutaint.com BugTraq: https://bt.ritlabs.com/

Hello Nick, On samedi 9 février 2002 à 07:27:34, you wrote : NA If you are not meaning minimise to System Tray, then I don't know what NA you mean. There is nothing else. I take it that by notification area NA you mean the System Tray, right? If so... you can do that via the NA Preferences menu so that TB will remain active but will not show up on NA the Task Bar. In Windows XP (french version), system tray is called notification area (translating it). What I mean is, when clicking on the upper rigth cross usually used tu close the program, I want the Bat! to be minimized in the system tray (with an option) So, if really I'm the only one interested... -- Greetings, Ericmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! v1.54 Beta/36 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 -- _ Archives : http://tbbeta.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Wish List : http://wish.thebat.dutaint.com BugTraq: https://bt.ritlabs.com/
