Enable / Disable Close in Program Button in Taskbar

Hi,

how can I Enable / Disable the "Close Window" entry in program button in taskbar?

Thanks for assistance.

Cheers mike

Do you mean the context menu item "Close Window" from taskbar app icons? Don't know if something like this is possible but you can hide the app from taskbar if the window has WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW  extended style.

hi andreik,

yes this is what i mean.

but i fear that this is not possible.

it's just to prevent that the user closes the app while it is busy with a task.

thanks anyway

cheers mike

just another question:

which event (keystroke) sends the context menu item "Close Window" from taskbar?

Thanks for info

ok, finally found the solution:

Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)

GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "Ignore", $hGUI1)

Do, what has to be done without interuption ...

Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 0)

That's it.

Cheers mike
