I have found the reason the onidle does not work is because when the idle test
is needed, the mainform is hidden (in the system tray). When the mainform is
hidden, Onidle does not work - it never gets activated until the mouse is over
the tray icon OR the mainform is visible. You can test this for yourself by
making a mainform with onidle, then hide the mainform, then place a break in the
onidle event.
Any ideas please to get an onidle event to work in the tray? (not setting DONE
to false, as this is system resource heavy)
Tks,
