Support for ....

August 7, 2002 4:46 AM from

Well I was just wondering if it would be possible for WB skins to support the "send to tray" button. I use certain programs (eg. G6) that have a small button next to the minimize button, but that gets covered with the titlebar or sometimes pops out and looks odd since it doesn't conform to the rest of the theme.

WB has a button that will minimize a window to the tray on Windows 2000 and XP. Maybe you could just add it to the skin your using.

It would require getting to know SkinStudio a little bit and making the button graphic. But, in a nutshell, you would add a new titlebar button to the skin in SkinStudio and assign it the Minimize to Tray action. Obviously this isn't the solution you were looking for, but I thought I'd offer it in case it could help.

You can look at my Subterfuge skin for and example. It has a sub-design that includes that button. https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?Library=1&skinid=2603
