           Version: 1.1.3
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

When I start some of my applications I normally have a minimize button up to
the right. If I use it once and the maximize the window this minimize button
has disappeared and the minimize entry in the drop down list is grayed out.
In some it works OK.

Can you try Gnome and see if you have the same problem?

Any downloadable programs showing this?

I do not have Gnome installed.
But I happened to have icewm installed and with that the minimize button works.

Sorry, none of the programs with this behavior are downloadable.

Can I run wine with some sort of debugger to supply more information.

Is this still an issue in current (1.1.15 or newer) wine?

Yes. It's still the same behavior with the latest version of wine (1.1.15)

Tested with 1.1.28 today, and the problems are still there. All kinds of
strange effects occur. Hard to describe. I shall check if I can supply a demo
version om the program with a dummy database.

This is your friendly reminder that there has been no bug activity for 6
months. Is this still an issue in current (1.2-rc1 or newer) wine?

I have tried 1.2-rc1, it's better, the minimize button is always there. I still
get that mini windows in the middle of the screen. If I right click in its
lower part I get a small pop up window down to the left saying:
Reset
Minimize
X Quit Alt-F4
About Wine
If I select Reset I get the full window back.

If I right click in the upper part of the mini window and select Maximize, I
get just a empty frame. If I then use the minimize button and the click on
program again I get a complete working window again. I have to "maximize" twice
to get useful window.

When I start from console I get two messages:
err:service:validate_service_config Service L"Msis_clbc" has an unknown service
type
err:service:scmdatabase_load_services Invalid configuration of service
L"Msis_clbc" - skipping

To test with a patch you need to download the source and compile it.

Then apply this patch

Are your applications based on Delphi?

1. As far as I can see, it's a Delphi application.

2. I applied the patch and now it works just fine!
