- Hi,
- I also use zApp. I've been evaluating it for 1 month now and am
- wondering if anyone has the multiple main window problem licked yet.
-
- My app can NOT be an MDI app. I need multiple, independent windows.
- Each of my windows should be able to close and not affect the other
- windows.
-
- I guess the closest application that is similar to what I have in
- mind is Visual Basic 1.0. There is a main window with the menubar
- and many "forms" which are main windows i.e. they can be closed with
- ALT-F4.
-
- I've played with making zPane windows WS_POPUP windows and I can get
- separatly managed windows, but when you iconify them, they beep at
- me when I single click on the icon. Double clicking on the zPane icon
- brings the window back up.
-
- If anyone has figured out how to use zApp in this way, please follow
- up here or e-mail me.

- Also, I haven't figured out a clean way to get the double click event!
- It seems zApp gobbles it up along with single clicks and makes them into
- one event. Is there a way to read the event object to see if it is a
- double click??
-
- Thanks
-
- Dave
