[wxPython] Frame not appearing in taskbar

RE: [wxPython] Frame not appearing in taskbar
wxFRAME_TOOL_WINDOW - half the actions missing as you’ve already said.

wxFRAME_NO_TASKBAR - Only works if you have another window open to act as the parent. If you’re doing a taskbar applet, this is no good.

Hi,

well, actually I looked at the Demo and I saw how to put the small

taskbar icon with a menu next to the clock, no problem with that.

Briefly: Take a look at the Demo. It does most of what you’re asking

in the main wrapper interface. You have to additionally alter init

to stop it from showing the window at startup, and you may have to

override things like minimize and close events to get the exact

operation you want. You don’t need to use a wxFRAME_TOOL_WINDOW to

achieve this either.

From the description it seemed to me that using wxFRAME_TOOL_WINDOW

or wxFRAME_NO_TASKBAR is far easier than twiddling around with all

kinds of operations.

So you suggest to install a minimize handler to hide the window?

Looks like a possible alternative.

Thanks for the idea,

Lars
