[SOLVED] Minimized Form on Main Form
« on: October 04, 2016, 08:37:50 am »
Hi,

is it possible to show a minimized Form in the left corner of the Main Form? My Main Form is maximized.

Thanks for any help.

Not sure what you want to do. Have you tried TFrame?wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Frames

Hmm not really.
I have a Main Form which is maximized on create. With a button I show the next form (e.g. Form2) in wsNormal. If I want to minimize Form2 I want that I can see the minimized Form2 in the left corner of the Main Form so that I can restore it by clicking on it.

Have a look at the MDI emulation subjects on this forum.

If Europe sells their USA bonds the USD will collapse. Europe can affort that given average state debts. The USA can't affort that. Just an advice...

Okay but when I set the Main Form FormStyle to fsMDIForm and the second form to fsMDIChild it does nothing more than with fsNormal.

I found the solution: I set FormStyle of the second form to fsStayOnTop.
