<HTML>Hello

There is no room in Minimize To Tray window to put all the text. It only holds 2 lines and I need 3 or more for the translation.

In english version, the 'restore' option also needs one more line.


thanks

<HTML>You are absolutely correct. Let's truncate those strings to be:

Minimize an application to the system tray.

and

Restore all minimized applications in the tray.

<HTML>Ok, I've made the corrections, but I still have a problem:

"Tray" in spanish is 'Barra de herramientas del sistema" so I still need more room :-)

I've put an anglicism to my translation. Sorry for the spanish and catalan purist... ;-)


thanks

<HTML>Dapobe: I know that you guys call the Tray that way, but in the Spanish Windows Help and stuff, the Tray is still called tray... I'm not spanish but I speak some catalan ;)

What about you call it Barra sistema, thats short enough and everybody should know what you mean... or even better... call it TRAY :-D

<HTML>Hi

També el saps llegir, Dennis?

I call it 'Tray' in my translations. In Catalan or Spanish, it's not possible to call it 'Barra Sistema', it sounds artificial.

We must call it 'barra DEL sistema', adding 5 chars and making our third undesired line.

Window's help files talk about 'barra de tareas'. Is the bottom bar where Start Button (Botón de Inicio) is in. But there is no any reference for the area where the clock is placed (the tray area).

I call it 'barra del sistema' because all icons there are system refered (clock, lan, etc...)

So I think its better to call it Tray in this case. It's shorter and everybody knows where is it. (except purists ;-)

<HTML>Hi!!

I would like to learn more about sending programs to the system tray, because I would like to write a program that minimizes selected programs to systray at startup.
Is it possible to have a look on the sourcecode of the Minimize to Tray - plugin?

Thanks a lot

hi

I tryed to use the minimize to tray plugin in german, but it wouldn't work. A friend of mine just found out, that the plugin contains a wrong lng-file. It's the lng-file of "multimon" ...

so i had to copy the english lng-file and rename it to "deutsch.lng". It's not german now, but it works. ;)

greets from Switzerland, pyranha

Yes a bit of documentation would be helpful, but I think I just found it. Since nothing comes preconfigured, you have to configure your own gesture for a program (or general) an associate it with the command "Minimize to Tray"

Personally I used in General [M] for Minimize to Tray and [M Reversed] for Restore all

BTW great Prog and thx for keeping it free

Thanks for the support, guys. And sorry for the poor documentation. I just didn't think that it really needed any.

Scott you really should stop saying sorry so much :)

Thanks HEAPS for making this, I only got it last night and now I feel restricted when I'm using other computers without it installed.
