b60 - minimized to tray tooltip added

Post by par »

What's new?

- Most our users think that YoWindow quits when they close the window.
Now when the user closes YoWindow window with [x] button on the top-right corner or with Alt-F4,
YoWindow displays a pop-up balloon informing the user that YoWindow did not Exit, but was minimized.
The balloon message helps them to understand what exactly is going on.

This technique also helps to solve another big issue our users have with the program.
By default Windows hides the temperature in tray and most users do not know about this feature.
However, when popup balloons displayed, the temperature is made visible for a couple of seconds.
This gives the user a hint that the temperature is there.

Is the 'Minimized' added to the translation now? With the 'Cancel' I have mentioned earlier.

I will add it pretty soon!
Cancel must be displayed in the user language already.

Hi Pasha,

There is a problem when you click on the system tray icon after you first turn on your PC. The desktop displays a black bar instead of the menu bar. Once you do a Ctrl Q and then start YoWindow 3 again, the menu bar displays.

I hope this is an easy fix. :wink:
