TForm2.Create(application) taskbar problem

[trolojik2]

Hi all ;

I have two form
Form1 and form2

This project is client chat project.

if i want to talk with somebody i create a form like

frm := TForm2.Create(application);

When i created tform2 as frm i want to show this window in taskbar and i used this procedure

Delphi-Quellcode:

procedure TForm2.CreateParams(var Params: TCreateParams);
begin
 inherited CreateParams(params);
 with Params do
 begin
  ExStyle:= ExStyle or WS_EX_APPWINDOW;
  WndParent:= GetDesktopWindow;
 end;
end;

But there is a problem. When i right click (mouse) form2 on taskbar i cant see original popup
Close , Minimize , Maximize etc..

How can i see this menu ?

Regards;

If you use a recent version of Delphi (2006 or 2007), you have a component called TTrayIcon.
If not, use the CoolTrayIcon component.

I don't thimk that's his problem. He doesn't want an icon in the TNA. He is missing the system menu items of the taskbar button of his window like "Minimze" or "Move".

My fault, sorry.

For me, the code is working :gruebel:

Moin,

If I may ask: Which Delphi-Version do you use?

Edit: Another thing which might cause such a problem is that you've changed somewhere window-specific properties, like setting the window-style to a Dialog-one. Such things might change the window's behavior especially concerning the system-menu (which is the name of the menu you have problems with ;) )

Excuse me?

Anyway, if I've got you meant, you can change the system menu of course. But the only way I know is pure API code, which means you create a menu item (all non vcl, so it's going to be pure code) and then attach it to the system menu. There are ways to do that(but I don't remember the exact commands) so a little search on google (it's API-Code so there aren't too much differences between delphi or c++ for example, so: No matter which language you find the solution in, it should be easy to translate, and if not there should be someone around here who can ;) ) or in this forum should help you.
