[Bug 609834] Re: Windows 7 Taskbar features

 

I fail to see the relation between taskbar thumbnails, the amount of
tabs, and the inability to minimize DC++.

for the first problem, they may be globally disabled (for the whole
Windows system, not just DC++) if you feel they bother you.

the amount of tabs shouldn't be an issue. after about 15 tabs, Windows
switches from thumbnails to a regular list on my system. but in any
case, that shouldn't matter when it comes to minimizing the app.

as to the actual problem (can't minimize), we'll need more info to help out. on a regular Windows, DC++ minimizes just fine regardless of the amount of tabs.
any particular Windows theme?
where exactly do you click?
which DC++ minimizing / tray settings are enabled (Settings > Appearance)?
does globally disabling taskbar thumbnails fix the issue, to see whether your hunch was correct?

  Windows 7 Taskbar features

Status in DC++:
  New

Bug description:
  Well i thought i give it a go and request it

  http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/dd942846.aspx

  I know that windows specific isnt always appreciated but i imagine
  that this is the way windows wanna go with more taskbar (simplicity)
  features and i know i love that with my netbook so i thought that a
  simple sales pitch about how it can improve usage on windows platforms
  atleast having stuff like pause downloads away mode etc as a taskbar
  feature for DC++ could give it a small boost so i hope a discussion
  comes about from this small feature request
