minimize bsnone windows !

[masterDicanio]

Hi

i have a bsnone border style window ! when i minimize window with code ! it will be a button near the taskbar and doesnt minimize to taskbar completely !

any idea , how i can minimize it completely ?

use:

application.Minimize instead of windowstate property.

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
  Application.Minimize;
end;

Sorry i have no idea what's may be.
It seems a conflict in code inside your unit or it's due to a component code ...

I have D7 and i have tried with and empty form (borderstyle = none) and application.minimize works fine.

What does it happen if, (when the form is open), you left-click it's icon on the task bar?
Normaly first click minimize the form to the task bar, next click restore the form. What's in your case?
