Hi folks

Anyone knows how to check if the application window is minimized?

My app is minimizing to the system tray. I need to launch a notification when an event ocurrs, but only if the window is minimized.

Also, would be really nice if anyone could tell me how to make it “Close to system tray”, until now all I managed to do was to minimize to system tray.

Thank you all :?)
