Hello Lazarus-List,

Does anybody know the technical reason why the application handle can
not be the mainform handle ?

Both Delphi and LCL/Win32 uses this approach, one zero-size window
that is shown in the taskbar and all the forms are non taskbar buttons
(unless forced to have one). I have a lot of curiosity about this
topic, maybe different events for application and each form ?

This difference with regular windows programs create some strage
behaviors like non preview in vista/7 taskbar when minimized, no
window animations (simulated by LCL, but non working in composite
desktops), excessive use of SetWindowPos, etc.

Thank you.
