Does minimizeBox work for Mac OS X?

Post by stephenmcnutt » Fri Sep 21, 2012 4:56 pm

The minimizeBox property of my stack is set to true, but in the OS X standalone, the yellow minimize button is there but isn't colored and doesn't work. The button does work in the Windows standalone. Ideas?

Hi Stephen,

yes, that should work on Mac, too!
The only hting I have ssen on the Mac is that sometimes the "traffic sign"
on the left LOOKS disabled but is in fact functional.

Doublecheck "the decorations" of your stack.

BTW: Whatever file you have attached here, it is not found 8)

Yes, I'm afraid the function of those BBCode tags eludes me--if that's what they are. It looks like I just screwed up the URL, though. It was just a screenshot showing the uncolored--and, by the way, definitely unfunctional minimize button. I'll check stack decorations, but if it works in Windows, it ought to work in OS X I'm thinking. I'd say this is a bug. What do you think, Klaus?

I sold a copy of my app Classroom Quizshow in your neck of the woods recently--Berlin, by the way. I've always liked Germany. I've never been there (I'm from the U.S.), but I'm one fourth German. My people left the Fatherland in the mid 19th century. I was brought home from the hospital as a baby in my parents' '66 Beetle (the last great year IMHO). At that time my grandparents had a '65, and my uncle had a '62. I've owned a beautiful bicolor black and deep red '05 New Beetle and an '06 New Beetle TDI and now drive a real, made-in-Germany German car, a 2010 GTI, which I can drive around the Nurburgring in under 10 minutes, if only in Forza Motorsports 4 on the Xbox 360. Well, I digress, Klaus. :-)

hmm, looks like, although I never experienced this one...
