enum FormWindowState contains just Normal and Maximized, but not Minimized.

You can use Form.Hide() minimize your form, but then your app is not visible in Task List, so e.i. you cannot sell your app through Microsoft Marketplace

BTW:

I read in many places, that Marketplace got horrible –> impossible to realize conditions, but conditions are fair and Marketplace will have better quality applications. In result will profit just customers.

so when i’ve downloaded source code of application from here, i was surprised by TaskListControl, it’s very nice way to display some information and it seems better than DataGrid. So i’ve programmed my own TaskListControl and used in my application CreditCard, It’s has very simple application. It’s something like your wallet. It show how much did you waste, earn, and it’s very well-arranged. For demonstration i’ll show ya some screenshots, because it says more than words

 

 

here you can see, main window, it doesn’t show any informations because you didn’t wrote password (how you can see it’s “pass” ). When your “pass” is accepted, then you can see how much Remain, or Waste, Income, or click on buttons.

And very importtant information “created by Altai”

Kdyz to zkusim jenom zestrucnit, tak ono to kresli na Bitmap pomoci GDI, takze opravdu proste Graphic.drawString(“AhojSvete”, Brush, Posx,Posy); (ted nejak nejsem si jist v jakem poradi jsou parametry, ale je to nejak takhle).
