Bug: matepath/metapath can't be minimized by clicking on it's icon in the taskbar #797

matepath/metapath doesn't have a minimize button. Thus it becomes very annoying to use it if it can't be minimized in usual ways. Clicking on the top left corner icon and then minimize works though. Thanks.

I think this by design: image

The minimize and maximize button can be shown (has no effect on clicking) by changing WS_MATEPATH: https://github.com/zufuliu/notepad4/blob/5a504cfdc922be399813a6b39c333d8e74159c13/matepath/src/matepath.h#L27-L29

 #define WS_MATEPATH ((WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW ^ \
-                                         (WS_MINIMIZEBOX | WS_MAXIMIZEBOX)) | \
+                                         (/*WS_MINIMIZEBOX | */WS_MAXIMIZEBOX)) | \
                                         (WS_CLIPCHILDREN | WS_POPUP))

So, can this be changed? I was gonna ask for the minimize/maximize button once this is solved. Thanks for looking into this.

Support minimize/maximize buttons would require some extra code changes other than WS_MATEPATH.

Then please fix minimize/maximize(view window) by clicking on the taskbar icon for now if possible.
