Task bar question

Hi,
i have developed a program in which the user opens often new windows (new frames)to do different jobs .how can i make the java frames not to show their names in the task bar just like the showOptionPane dialog. when you open such a dialog even when it has a title it will not be shown in the task bar.
thanx

Hi pietblok,
what do you mind with
Your main JFrame should maintain a reference to those dialogs so that it can reshow them when they are being closed by the user and the user wants them to redisplay.
do you mind with that, that every time the user clicks over a button(which creates a new window)a new object should be created so a new JDialog and so a new window in the screen?
thanx for the help

  • Closing Window in Task Bar leaves app open

    Ok so this may be a noob question but that would be because I'm a noob.
    I have an Air application which has states some of which are invisible. There is always a systray icon where the user can close the application but in windows when the state is visible there is also a task bar icon. If the user right clicks on the task bar icon they can close the visible window but the actual application is still running (although not functioning in any way). The systray icon is still there and they can right click it to close the application but they never notice it.
    This results in confusion as the application is no longer functioning but they can't resart it either.
    What is the best methodology for dealing with this?
    Much appreciated
    Phil

    I believe I've found the answer.
    autoExit="true"
    A function was setting it to false. Oops

  • How do I get the tab bar at the bottom of the screen (right above the task bar) WITHOUT Tab Mix Plus?

    ''locking - please stick with your original thread about this problem - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/934590''
    I like having the tab bar at the bottom of the screen; I use the task bar AT THE BOTTOM to switch between programs, so I want the the tab bar AT THE BOTTOM to switch between web pages. The only way I've found to get the tab bar at the bottom of the screen is the extension Tab Mix Plus. I used it for a long time, and it worked great.
    Unfortunately, when I recently updated to Firefox 14.0.1, I encountered an error: I could no longer middle-click on a link to open it in a new tab (which I do ALL the time). After some troubleshooting, I found that it was being caused by some incompatibility between Firefox 14.0.1 and Tab Mix Plus; upon removing Tab Mix Plus, my middle-clicking was back to normal.
    But without Tab Mix Plus, I'm back to having the tab bar at the top of the screen. I've searched and searched, and I can't find anything besides Tab Mix Plus that will let me put the tab bar at the bottom of the screen. I've found tons of stuff about the option "tabs on top", but that has to do with putting the tab bar above/below the navigation bar--it's still at the top of the SCREEN either way.
    What can I do?

    Reset the pref <b>layout.scrollbar.side</b> to '0' or set to '2' to place the scroll bar at the default right side.

  • SAP Signature Design & Task Bar Auto-Hide Feature

    Hi Experts,
      I'm having a problem with SAP Business One 8.8 PL18 using the new 8.8 SAP Signature Design. We are in a business with 4 professionals and 1 CRM. When we use the SAP Signature Design Skin Style and you have SBO maximized on the screen and you have Windows auto-hide the Task bar. You can't go back to the task bar with your mouse to switch applications or to just go to your start menu. The only way you can make the task bar appear is by pressing the "window key" to make the task bar display. To change applications, you can still use the "Alt Tab feature". If I put the Skin Style to Classic Mode, everything works great with no apparent display problems.
    I've tried this on 3 different operating systems. Windows 7, Windows XP and Windows 2003 Server and the same results. The task bar won't re-pop up if you move your mouse down to it (I tried moving the task bar to the left, top or right to see if that made a difference, and it didn't). I've been using the "Window Key" for now to make the task bar pop up (display), but I think it's a bug with the skin style and not the operating system.
      I've tried to get this resolved with our partner, but I don't think they understand the problem, or are just not willing to acknowledge the problem. They probably think it is a petty problem. We all like the new design and would like to use it properly while still having the task bar auto-hide.
    The question actually is, do you know of this problem, is there something I can disable or do to get it to work (ie: make it run with compatibility mode to something) or do I just have to live with this problem?
    I thank you very much in trying or helping me with this problem
    Ron
    IT Manager

    Hi Ron,
    Welcome you post on the forum.
    I don't have the same version to test. Based on your detailed explanation, I do think it is probably a bug. Since it may not be used by many users, it could have low priority to be fixed even if it is confirmed to be a bug.
    Thanks,

  • Windows task bar no longer auto hides when I fullscreen a flash video.

    Like the question reads, my task bar is no longer auto hiding when I full screen flash videos in firefox. Other than the obvious issue of it just being unsightly and annoying, It also causes a few other problems. One being that the computer no longer recognizes that a fullscreen video is playing so it goes to screen saver, and goes to sleep at its normally timed intervals.

    If you're using higher DPI settings, please check "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings" on 'firefox.exe' (=> right-click - Properties - Compatibility tab).

  • Bad icon in Applications Folder -- Good item on task bar

    I installed Firefox. Dragged Firefox logo to applications folder, but what is displayed is a different logo, with a white circle, and a slash through the circle (like the red slashed circle over a car to symbolize "no parking" on a street sign). When I dragged that logo to the task bar, the correct Firefox logo appears on the task bar, but in my applications folder, the strange logo is still there. Not sure if this means that there is a problem with Install -- no error messages were displayed during install.

  • Help!  I'm stuck on the Task Bar and I can't get up!

    I recently upgraded to Premiere Elements 8, and now I can start the program but as soon as I open a project the window minimizes to the task bar.  I can not restore the window to show-up on the screen.  The Organizer works OK, and the Adobe startup window show-up OK.  Even the Premiere Elements window will show-up while it's loading a project, but as soon as the project is loaded... it hides down on the task bar.  It was working fine just after I installed it.  It's been a couple of weeks since I ran it last.  I have installed the 8.0.1 update.  What a tease!
    I've attached a couple of images of the program on the task bar just in case this helps.  My system is Window 7 Ultimate.  I have two 24" displays (both working fine), lots of memory and disk space, and it's a Dell XPS 9000 box.
    Please let me know how to coax my beloved Premiere Elements out of hiding!

    Hi Steve -- Thanks for your quick response.  I do have the 64-bit version installed on the C drive as shown in the screen  snippet below. The reference to the D drive in my earlier post was to the Premiere project file, which I dont keep on my system drive.  You've also suggested that I update my video driver, which I confirmed was up to date (as per snapshot below).
    You questions got me poking however, and I think I've found a way to circumvent the problem (which looks ilke a bug to me).  Apparently, the Welcome window always launches the Premiere editor in maximized mode.  When you subsequently open (a new or existing) project, the window resizes to the size that it was when you last used it.  When I was experiencing the problem, this size was "minimized on the task bar forever".
    To get around this, I used the settings menu on the top right of the Welcome window to set the option "Always Launch Premiere Elements Editor behind the Welcome Screen".  This show the editor window maximized, but it allows me to resize the editor window in the normal way, before I open a project.  Now when I subsequently opened a project file, the editor window did not dive into the Task Bar!
    Moreover, on subsequent launches the Welcome window still shows the editor window maximized, but the auto resize after opening a project now uses the size that I manually set in my manual sizing procedure in the above paragraph.  For me it's fixed!!
    Perhaps the context that provokes the bug is that I never set a non-maximized size for the editor, and the auto resize gets confused about the desired size of the editor window?
    -- Thanks, Ole Pa

  • Duo monitor and windows task bar...

    Hi, i have two monitors. And now here is my question/problem, when i watch videos or live streams(main monitor) i usually have another page for browsing open on my 2nd monitor and i stay on that page while watching live stream at the same time. However the windows task bar wont disappear and it remains and over-laps the bottom part of my main monitor. Is there any way to change this or perhaps theres no hope?

    Hi,
    if my understanding is correct your issue is more related to primary/secondary monitor setting in Windows. Please note that when in extended mode the taskbar will normally be only shown on the primary monitor.
    The Windows taskbar will disappear when you use FF in fullscreen mode (F11) which you may find useful when streaming video from web.
    Hope it helps

    windows get minimized to the taskbar automatically when you allow them
    to be minimized and the user clicks the third icon from the top right,
    or you can do it programmatically in newer LabVIEW versions by setting
    the minimzed state. What this guy meant was that he wants to minimize
    to the system tray which is a very different thing than the taskbar ;-)
    I answered with two possible Toolkits in another thread to do this.
    Doing it yourself with shell32 functionality is rather thirty work
    since it involves callback functions and quite some infrastructure
    around that to really work well. Nothing for someone not quite seasoned
    in C programming.

  • Why does the 'Downloads' gives me a full page which I can not just minimize to the task bar.

    I'm running Firefox 34.05 as opposed to what the data will say (34.0)
    Lately, when I press the 'Downloads' in Tools, I get a full page as if it is a new tab. I use to have a small block that I could minimize to the task bar. Is there something I can do to restore it to it former glorious self?
    As a secondary question which seemed to happen at the same time comes this question. now when I download a clip it does not appear in the Download (now) page. It still downloads but I can not view it download, stop the download or even go to where it was downloaded. Any help would be appreciated.

    Normally Tools > Downloads or Ctrl+j launches the Library dialog and displays the Downloads section (the Library dialog also shows History and Bookmarks). Regarding the size of the window, it could be that you used the dialog to view history or bookmarks and enlarged it. Firefox doesn't remember the size separately for the 3 different lists.
    On the second point, since you have a few different downloaders, I'm not sure which one is malfunctioning, or maybe there's a conflict between them. You might check their pages on the Add-ons site to see if reviews or support information reports the same issue and mentions any workarounds.
