Minimize Application

[akr]

Hello,

is there a way to minimize an application (form) using a button control?
Something like:

Sub Button3_Click
Form1.minimize 'or form1.hide
End Sub

I'm writing a program used in a car with only very few but large controls.

You can use Hardware.ShowTodayScreen to minimize your application.

Sub Button3_Click
 Hardware.ShowTodayScreen
End Sub

Thanks for the fast reply.
After installing the current version of hardware.dll it works.

Hello akr
You may as well wish to look into dzt's NotifyIcon library which,
unlike Hardware.ShowTodayScreen, adds an icon to the tray bar.

Thank you alfcen,

I didn't find the time for testing, but at the first glance that looks pretty good.
