Exchange Interface and MUI Royale Project

[NathanH]

Hi,

I just noticed that Hollywood v. 8.0 by default compiles projects as a Commodity (cool). Hide interface from Exchange probably hides Hollywood displays just fine. In my MUI Royale project, however, the Hollywood display is hidden from the start and Hide Interface from Exchange does nothing. Is there a way to hide the MUI Royale window when a user clicks Hide interface from Exchange? Thanks for the help.

I've made it like this:

Code: Select all

Function p_MUI_Hack()
    If mui.Get("app", "iconified") Then SetTimeout(2, p_MUI_Hack, 500)
EndFunction

Function p_Iconify(msg)
    If msg.action="HideWindow"
        mui.Set("app", "iconified", True)
        p_MUI_Hack()
    Else
        mui.Set("app", "iconified", False)
    EndIf
EndFunction

InstallEventHandler({ShowWindow=p_Iconify, HideWindow=p_Iconify})

The p_MUI_Hack() shouldn't basically be needed, but for some reason I can't uniconify the program on MorphOS if I've iconified it with Exchange and try to uniconify it by double clicking the app icon. Uniconifying with the Exchange works, but for this special case I made this little "hack", because it seems to work if there are some events going on in the program

Thanks very much! I'll give it a try.

Hmm, sounds like something for a bug report

Yea... now that I try to refresh my memory, I thought that this might get fixed by the "MUI refresh" fix, because work-around is similar, but I don't think that's the case afterall... so I'll make a report soon when I still remember it
