ShowDialogs - great idea but doesn't work for me :(

<< < (2/2)

jl:
P.S. it does work for Firefox, SecureCRT, etc. but as I described previously, not how I was expecting.

mouser:
ah i see, my mistake; it does it for lots of different windows that dont appear on taskbar normally.
my mistake.

skrommel:
 :huh: Do you have Grouping enabled in the task bar's Properties? In that case, the dialog box will show up on the same tab as it's parent. I could of course change the parent, but I can't stand the grouping of the task bar buttons anyway, so I say disable it! And just move the taskbar to the right edge of the screen to make room for more buttons.

I kinda like the task bar at the bottom and have to have grouping on - I think both those things are pretty big personal preferences.

I have to have grouping on because I'm lazy with closing windows and like to keep emails and browser windows open for reading later, and that's not going to change any time soon. Currently I have 17 windows open in Outlook, 8 in notepad, and 9 in Firefox. (and a total of 11 applications open)

If it's simple to program the parent to be a new taskbar item maybe it could be added as an option when you right click the systray icon?

Cheers :)
