hi
I have found borderless window in tutorials section it is cool.
there is a small cross to close the window-that is also cool.
but who can tell me to create a button, which can minimize the window.
I also like to know if that window can be open on lounch without the button.
all answer welcome;) 😉 😉

Hey!
If I know what you’re talking about (chromeless window?) then here’s a link to a DHTML website that has a chromeless window with a minimize button:
[http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex8/chromeless.htm](http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex8/chromeless.htm)
As for the launch, I’m not sure. Maybe there’s a way for a MC to launch it from a flash movie; adding it to a onClipEvent(load). That’s just a guess.
Hope this helps

i believe windows patch this up… winxp and win2k user most likely unable to view it properly…
will open in full screen instead

When I test the chromeless window in inxp, it’s fine. But in Win NT4, it opens full screen (maximized). Anyone know how to fix this? Or is it a hopeless NT bug?
Thanks.

Ignore my last post. According to the **Fullscreen and Center** discussion thread, all chromeless windows are evil!:bad:

Apparently its hard to find people that agree with the chromeless windows are evil statement, but I stick by it.
