When using WinMinimize on a program that normally minimizes to system tray (specifically, Camtasia Recorder) it instead minimizes like a normal window to the task bar. On some other programs (like iTunes) the minimizing to system tray still works fine when using WinMinimize. Is there any other possible way to make a program minimize to system tray?

And I tried using the PostMessage described in the WinMinimize help file, but it didn't seem to do anything... ._.

Perhaps these two programs handle the minimize to tray differently.
One checks "if window is minimized, then hide it" and the other perhaps just captures your event (clicking on the minimize) and hides it then.

If I were you, I would have tried WinHide on the Camtasia window - this should hide it. Now if, when you click on the Camtasia stufio tray icon it pops back up, you have your solution (i.e. your WinHide is in effect minimize to tray)

Makes sense?

Oh. Yes, that makes perfect sense... Trying to figure out a way to do it the way I immediately thought of rather than going with an easier, obvious route... how silly of me xD

Works like a charm, thanks a bunch.
