Request for different behavior from "Close" menu item.

2003-01-29T23:39:44Z

Exported from Bugzilla, issue 3636.

Customer doesn't like PostQuitMessage in the DoCloseClick event, says it
bypasses OnCloseQuery/OnClose event handlers.

procedure TStCustomTrayIcon.DoCloseClick(Sender: TObject);
begin
TForm(Owner).Close; {!!.02}
// PostQuitMessage(0); {!!.02}
end;

Application.MainForm.Close has also been suggested.

Problems:

Having to include the Forms unit
Assuming the component is owned by a TForm
Assuming the availability of the Application object

Alternative(??):

PostMessage(TForm(Owner).Handle, WM_CLOSE, 0, 0);

Customer Suggestion to have the Tray Icon re-show itself after an Explorer
re-load.

Uses a message that may not be available pre Win98/IE4?

-------------------->8 cut here 8<--------------------
TStCustomTrayIcon = class(TSsShellComponent)
protected{private}
...
{internal variables}
...
WM_TASKBARCREATED: Cardinal; {!!.02}

...

constructor TStCustomTrayIcon.Create(AOwner: TComponent);
...
begin
...
// Use the TaskbarCreated message available from Win98/IE4+ {!!.02}
WM_TASKBARCREATED := RegisterWindowMessage('TaskbarCreated'); {!!.02}
end;

...

procedure TStCustomTrayIcon.AppWndProc(var Msg : TMessage);
begin
...

if (Msg = WM_TASKBARCREATED) then begin {!!.02}
if Active then begin {!!.02}
IsActive := False; {!!.02}
AddToTray; {!!.02}
end; {!!.02}
end; {!!.02}
...
end;

Add "process subdirectories" functionality

The SHFileOperation API that underlies TStFileOperation will automatically
operate on Subdirectories if a '*.*' wildcard is supplied for the SourceFiles
property, but not with other wildcards, some way to add that.

Shell Components don't support expected keyboard interface

Exported from Bugzilla, issue 3130.

Several common keyboard behaviors are not supported in the shell components, and
it's not clear how to implement them at the event level:

ShellListView:
1) <CTRL+A> should "Select All"
2) Typing letters should seek to spelled item
3) <Enter> should activate item
4) <Alt+Enter> should bring up properties dialog
5) <F2> should activate Rename

ShellTreeView:
1) Typing letters should seek to spelled item (among visible levels)
2) <F2> should activate Rename

Add mouse events to TrayIcon

2003-01-29T23:39:06Z

Exported from Bugzilla, issue 2201.

A customer has asked for notification when mouse events occur over a "tray
iconized" application.

According to MSDN, by supplying a custom message in the uCallBackMessage of the
TNotifyIconData structure, and adding the NIF_MESSAGE option to the uFlags
field, the Window handle passed in the WND field will have Mouse messages
forwarded to it from the tray.

TStTrayIcon implements the message ID in the form of the TrayIconID constant in
StTrIcon.pas; but doesn't actually do anything with it in the context of the
WndProc method.

Seems like adding OnMouseUp, OnMouseMove, OnMouseDown events to TStTrayIcon via
this mechanism should be relatively straightforward.

Dialog Panel Resizing

2003-01-29T23:39:02Z

Exported from Bugzilla, issue 2038.

When horizontally resizing the Dialog Panel the ListView, the "File Name"
edit, and the "Files of Type" combobox expand with the panel and the buttons are
anchored to the lower right, which is appropriate behavior IMO.

I'd suggest having the "Look In" edit and the misc buttons next to it do the
same though.

The panel looks VERY COOL, btw! ;-)

The panel uses a TStShellNavigator, which does not have resizing code
at this time. Users will have to put some sort of constraints in the prevent
the panel from resizing below a certain size.

All dialogs should have an IDE preview capability

Simply create a component editor for the component. When they double click on
the component in the IDE, pop up the dialog based on the settings for the
component.
