Two palette stack questions

Hi everybody, I just want to know
1. Is it possible to make the main stack palette. If yes, how?
2. How can I show the palette stack icon in the taskbar, not in the system tray. For example, I've made an app which hides the main stack and shows a substack in palette mode, but it doesn't show the icon in taskbar. I know how to show the icon in system tray, but not in the taskbar.
Replies are most appreciated.........

Hi alemrantareq,
1. what about:
Code: Select all
on preopenstack
set the style of this stack to palette
end preopenstack
2. I'm afraid this is not possible without some tricks, that I unfortunately don't know
Best
Klaus

Thanks
Klaus for replying.......I tried with this one-
Code: Select all
on preOpenStack
palette this stack
end preOpenStack
It was the wrong script for making the main stack palette.
Someone, please help me replying for problem (2).....

you could create a fake stack, hide it, and have it use the same label as your palette's name

Hi mwieder, I've read your attached link, and so far I know its for showing the icon in system tray. Sorry to say but I think you didn't read my prob 2 as well; because there I said I know how to show the icon in system tray but I don't know how to show the icon in Task bar when the stack is in Palette mode. Anyway, thanks.......

You're right, I read that wrong. Showing the icon in the system tray is a known solved problem. But one of the nice things about paletted stacks is that the *don't* show up in the taskbar. That's by design in the OS. What is it you're trying to do? Is there some other way around this other than paletting the stack?
