I'm not sure if that is possible or not but what you could do is create a button in the dialog and have it set to minimize the dialog.

Example:

Trigger Dialog100:

Code:

Copy      Help

if(!ShowDialog("Dialog100" &Dialog100)) ret

Dialog100:

Code:

Copy      Help

;\Dialog_Editor
function# hDlg message wParam lParam
if(hDlg) goto messages

;BEGIN DIALOG
;0 "" 0x90C80A44 0x100 0 0 223 135 "Form"
;1 Button 0x54030001 0x4 120 116 48 14 "OK"
;2 Button 0x54030000 0x4 170 116 48 14 "Cancel"
;3 Button 0x54032000 0x0 208 0 14 12 "_"
;END DIALOG
;DIALOG EDITOR: "" 0x2010808 "" ""

ret
;messages
if(message=WM_INITDIALOG) DT_Init(hDlg lParam)
;int param=DT_GetParam(hDlg)

sel message
,case WM_INITDIALOG
,ret 1
,case WM_DESTROY DT_DeleteData(hDlg)
,case WM_COMMAND goto messages2
ret
;messages2
sel wParam
,case 3
,,mac+ "Minimize"
,case IDOK DT_Ok hDlg
,case IDCANCEL DT_Cancel hDlg
ret 1

Minimize:

Code:

Copy      Help

min "Form"

I guess we will do this like a Children's story book with pics and everything lol

Code:

Copy      Help

;\Dialog_Editor
function# hDlg message wParam lParam
if(hDlg) goto messages

;BEGIN DIALOG
;0 "" 0x90CA0A44 0x100 0 0 223 135 "Form"
;1 Button 0x54030001 0x4 120 116 48 14 "OK"
;2 Button 0x54030000 0x4 170 116 48 14 "Cancel"
;END DIALOG
;DIALOG EDITOR: "" 0x202000B "" ""

ret
;messages
if(message=WM_INITDIALOG) DT_Init(hDlg lParam)
;int param=DT_GetParam(hDlg)

sel message
,case WM_INITDIALOG
,ret 1
,case WM_DESTROY DT_DeleteData(hDlg)
,case WM_COMMAND goto messages2
ret
;messages2
sel wParam
,case IDOK DT_Ok hDlg
,case IDCANCEL DT_Cancel hDlg
ret 1

0x90CA0A44 would be the code you need to use in your DIALOG, if you want to add it by hand.

here is also how to add a button to your DIALOG to minimize:

Code:

Copy      Help

;\Dialog_Editor
function# hDlg message wParam lParam
if(hDlg) goto messages

;BEGIN DIALOG
;0 "" 0x90CB0A44 0x100 0 0 223 135 "Form"
;1 Button 0x54030001 0x4 120 116 48 14 "OK"
;2 Button 0x54030000 0x4 170 116 48 14 "Cancel"
;3 Button 0x54032000 0x0 92 46 48 14 "Min"
;END DIALOG
;DIALOG EDITOR: "" 0x202000B "" ""

ret
;messages
if(message=WM_INITDIALOG) DT_Init(hDlg lParam)
;int param=DT_GetParam(hDlg)

sel message
,case WM_INITDIALOG
,ret 1
,case WM_DESTROY DT_DeleteData(hDlg)
,case WM_COMMAND goto messages2
ret
;messages2
sel wParam
,case IDOK DT_Ok hDlg
,case 3
,min hDlg
,case IDCANCEL DT_Cancel hDlg
ret 1

note the:

Code:

Copy      Help

,case 3
,min hDlg

I personally have never even thought about looking in styles for some reason, but now that you point it out I think I could use alot of whats in there, Thanks John.

[John]

You're welcome, glad to help.

[Gintaras]

JOHN_, I see incorrect folder icons in your dialog editor. Maybe something wrong with QM setup program. Either system.qml is not updated, or de_controls.bmp. Or you use your own copy of system.qml, which is not updated.

[John]

Yes you are right i do use my own copy of system.qml, or one that i have modified.

I have been busy and not had time to update it i guess i need to do so, thanks for pointing that out to me.

[qmr55]
