Re^4: Toplevel window/widget

Would you happen to know the callback for the minimize button and/or system menu? And.or modify?

Would you know how to modify the system menu minimize option?

I can tell you now that I have had more time to experiment... that creating a toplevel from the MainWindow menu bar does minimization correctly. But when I try to create another toplevel from further down in the code, the newer toplevel will not minimize. And then the prior toplevel that did function properly now does not! So, I am affecting something global to toplevel widgets. The toplevels are all created via $mw->new_toplevel, where $mw is the MainWindow. And when the toplevels do not minimize the MainWindow still does.

Thank you for the ideas and thoughts, not to mention your time.

You will have to show some code. In the abscence of which, maybe Urgent query : PERL/Tk will help. I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth. Old Perl Programmer Haiku ................... flash japh	[reply]

Albeit slow... whittling is an art that requires much patience! The issue was a bind statement for "<Leave>" with a grab for another widget. Moral of the story... know what you are grabbing! Thanks again for getting the juices flowing! gary	[reply]
