Is it possible to show a minimized form in Outlook using code, if so how?

I tried the Show and also ActivateStandardPane with no success. I am using Delphi 2010 and Outlook 2010.

I had created a procedure to do this in ADX 2009, just need to know if I need to resurrect my old code?

Hi Jason,

As far as I remember there's no official way to do this. In what layout do you show the pane?

I have panes in the elRightSubpane and elLeftSubpane, and I worte some code a long time ago that allowed using code to show the form if it was in it's minimized state but as it's popup. I am sure this was on the to-do list for the next ADX release.

Oh well, I will just add my custom code to the ADX code to allow this again, I have been doing this over the past 6 months to each version of ADX as it comes out.

I just added my code back in and it works as it did before, in fact was easier because the TAdxContainerPane is now accessible from the TadxForm object (not sure this was before, if it was I missed it).

If you would like me to send you my changes I can do via email.
