My current use case is: - show a login form - when login succeeds, show a progress form (connection initialization) and close login - on failure: go back to login - on success: show the actual application form and close the login form Showing the "main" form always wouldn't seem nice. Starting the application with the mainform hidden doesn't work afaik. You can hide it manually AFTER it was shown (.Hide), but Visible=False is ignored on startup. This just doesn't look nice if the main form pops up for a second to be hidden again. So I use the workflow described above, which changes the current Application.MainForm several times. -- Best Regards, Andreas _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
