Jay,
I'd be glad if someone confirms on invalidates this bug.
To sum it up:
- usually modal windows and their parents can't be minimized.
- I strongly suspect it triggers a bug somewhere, either in the client, in GTK or windows XP, but it's random enough that I couldn't find a scenario to exhibit it.
Thanks for your attention.
Lionel.

Status in OpenObject GTK Client: New

Bug description:
In 5.0.14, the GTK client is allowed to be minimized even when a modal widow is open, such as a search window or an error dialog.
On Windows you can always minimize the client by clicking the entry in the task bar.
On Gnome you can always minimize the client by clicking the entry in the task bar, or clicking the window-manager's buttons on the main window.
Allowing modal windows to be minimized is counter-intuitive, so it should be impossible on all platforms.

Moreover, on Windows XP, our useres are facing recurring situations where a minimized search window can't be de-minimized anymore - effectively making the whole client non-responding.
