Modalforms themself should probably be bsDialog. I do not know if it is strictly required. I also do not know what happens otherwise, maybe its enforced. But that should not affect the main form.
Why BorderStyle should be bsDialog? I think BorderStyle has nothing to do with ShowModal.
As, I said: "I don't know, if".
I just wonder what a modal dialog, with a minimize button
on the actual modal form would do?
- Minimize the entire app, IMHO unexpected, since that minimize button belongs to the modal form only?
- Minimize the modal dialog, and leave the "frozen" app on the screen?
I haven't tried. I have no idea what will be displayed and/or happen in such a case.
Are there any apps (Lazarus or other) out there that have a mimize-able modal form?
---EDIT:
I mixed that up. I meant the BorderIcons, not the BorderStyle.
