#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
$myGUI = GUICreate("My Gui", 357, 197, 192, 124, BitOR($WS_SIZEBOX, $WS_MINIMIZEBOX, $WS_MAXIMIZEBOX))
$Button1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Press Me!", 48, 64, 200, 50)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
While 1
$Msg = GUIGetMsg()
Switch $Msg
Case $GUI_EVENT_MINIMIZE
GUISetState(@SW_RESTORE)
Case $Button1
MsgBox(0, '', 'You pressed the Button!', 2)
Case $GUI_EVENT_MAXIMIZE
WinSetState("My Gui", "", @SW_MAXIMIZE)
Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
Exit
EndSwitch
WEnd

Hoi JohanatCent,

Thanks for you reply, but this will only work when you minimize it with the minimize button.

But what I'am looking for is that this will work with "windowskey + d"

I also tryd it with WinGetState but the function won't regonise it.

You could make a window which has no $WS_SYSMENU and I think that will not minimize for Windows + D.

You can add your own buttons to allow manual minimizing or maximizing.
