Capturing Minimize/Restore events?

[mainmanc]

Is there any functionality to capture the Minimize/Restore event for a window in AMS5? I have dug around deep, but cant seem to put any pieces together.

Thanks in advance.

Hi. When you say "capture" I'm not sure I understand what functionality you are looking at. Could you describe the task a bit more? Thanks.

Thanks for the reply,

Actually, now that I think about it, I did not phrase that question correctly. What I am wondering is if there is a way to "check" if a window is minimized or not, for use in a function.

Cheers.

Yeah, that's what I figured you were going for. OK I don't know of any built in action to do this but it should be do-able. I remember some people were adding a reg key change to their minimize and restore buttons so that they could just check the registry to see what the window state is, but that was a while ago.

I suspect the key to this will be some sort of .dll or system call, but that's out of my reach. Chances are someone around here will shine some light on it.

Yeah, I was thinking it must be something more in depth, being the fact that there was not a built in Action already. Thanks for your help.

Cheers.
