Let DB stay inside the toolbar.

[Peter]

I often go accidentily over the icons of the DB-sims in my toolbar. Can it be set that it won't get stat easily out.

[EricL]

I do not understand this suggestion.  Please elaborate.

[Peter]

Well if you click in DB on the button where there is a masket head. DB gets minimised into the toolbar, windows userbar, short the icons rightunder. Could it be changed that DB is't going back in normal form if you just go over with your mouse, but just with a doubleclick like many other programs do.

[EricL]

Sorry, still don't understand.   What's a "masket head"?

Are you saying that when DB is minimized to the windows tray, that if you mouse over the icon it restores the window?  I do not see this.  I must single click on the minimized tray icon to restore the window.

Sorry, still don't understand.   What's a "masket head"?

Well, sorry maybe I am just hard to understand   , with a 'masked head' I mean the icon you click to get it minimised. What is the icon anyway. But you guesed good anyway.

Are you saying that when DB is minimized to the windows tray, that if you mouse over the icon it restores the window?  I do not see this.  I must single click on the minimized tray icon to restore the window.

Indeed, that is what I mean. So it is not happening with you.
Strange I though it was always like that. I'll look if it happens to my vista-boot too.

[Peter]

And it happens too my vista-boot too.

[EricL]

Does it happen with other programs or just DB?

DB isn't making this happen.  There is no code in the program to handle mouse over events on minimized windows.  I suspect you have Clicklock enabled.   Look at your mouse settings in the Control Panel...

It's something I could never get to work right.  The icon he's talking about is supposed to look link a ninja.  It puts the program in stealth mode (ie: let it run on your work computer without having to worry about other people telling on you that you're playing a game.  Or if you're just really tempted to muck with things, but don't want to muck with things, you can hide it so it's out of sight-out of mind ).  It puts a little icon on the far right of the taskbar, near the clock, where things like volume control and msn get placed.  Ideally you'd have to click on the icon or something like that to remaximize Darwinbots, but I couldn't get that to work right so it just maximizes if you mouse over at all.

Would be a good thing to fix

[EricL]

Ah, okay.  I'll dig into it.

[Peter]

Eehh, jep what Numsgil said.

And then a suggestion in par with this.

Lower the priority of the DB-app when it is minimised near the clock. You don't do anything with the DB-app so there is no need to 'compete' for CPU-time with other apps.

In computers with one procesor, that could be pretty handy. In that situation you don't have any cores left.
