-
- Actually I want it to hide the window on startup, not minimize to desktop,
- and I do have this selected in the Window Settings.
-
- My problem occurs when deskpic appears in Startup as a shadow. If I place
- the actual deskpic in Startup everything works fine. The exact same thing
- happens with the OS/2 program Pulse. If it is shadowed to Startup it starts
- open, if it is actually in Startup it starts hidden.
-
- I have a similar problem with Chron and the OS/2 program Enhanced Editor.
- Except that placing the actual Chron in Startup does not fix the problem.
- I have not tried moving EE. Is this behaviour a known bug in OS/2? Does it
- go away in the service pak X6000, or in v2.1 beta? Is it worth reporting to
- IBM?
