Which is exactly what we do because we need to know *before* a window is minimized: void IgorNormalWindow::showEvent(QShowEvent *event) { QWidget::showEvent(event); emit windowVisibilityChanged(this, true); TellIgorWindowStatus(this, WINDOW_STATUS_DID_SHOW, 0); #ifdef MACIGOR if (!igorNSWindowNotifier) { if (!IgorApp()->IsMDI()) { igorNSWindowNotifier = CreateMinimizeNotification(reinterpret_cast<void *>(effectiveWinId()), reinterpret_cast<void *>(this)); SetNSWindowParticipatesInCycle(this, false); } } else { if (IgorApp()->IsMDI()) { DeleteIgorCocoaWindowNotifier(igorNSWindowNotifier); igorNSWindowNotifier = NULL; } } #endif } The CreateMinimizeNotification() function wraps Objective C++ code that ultimately does this: [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(handleMinimizationNotification:) name:@"NSWindowWillMiniaturizeNotification" object:cocoaWindow]; -John _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest
