This one has me stuck
How can you minimize a window so it ONLY shows the Titlebar like in the picture below?

If you set one like this to a height of 0, Its about Twice the height of the Titlebar, I guess i could use large TitleBars, but i think the smaller ones work better for my useage

There's no method I know of with BlueGUI to achieve that.
And I'm pretty sure it isn't supported...

It's the programmer's life:
Have a problem, solve the problem, and have a new problem to solve.

shame, it could be useful

I found a way to cheat...Make your own titlebar image, use it as a panel backdrop, but instead of attaching it to a window...Attach it to the desktop, (See Pic)

Only problem is that every gadget you atttach to the desktop gets added to the start bar as an unamed item like so

Is it possable to turn this startbar item off then?
(trying to think of an alernative, but im almost out of ideas), Although this is a little closer

Edit: Your not realy suppose to mess about with the desktop gadgit in this way are you? Althouh it sould be good for splash screens and irregular shaped custom windows, (ive just had an idea for my programme)

You can hide the taskbar icon by using the HIDE APP ICON command in the matrix1Util_13 plug-in.

I'm not sure that you can reduce the window enough to hide everything but the title bar, but you could try doing the reverse - hide the title bar and then resize what's left of your window to what you want.
