[SOLVED] RibbonBar double Click closes app

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

With the RibbonBar (eg using the Sample program) if you doubleclick the large System Button, it closes the program.

I expect this is working as designed. But is this the standard GUI behaviour for ribbon bars? And is there a way to trap this (apart from the event  Form_QueryUnload) ?

	Hi, Yes, its designed, and sure users wait such behavior. Its possible to Subclass main frame and catch "WM_SYSCOMMAND" message with "SC_CLOSE \| HTSYSMENU" parameter

	Isn't this standard windows behaviour? If you double-click the control box (top left hand corner of a windows application) it will close. Double-clicking on Excel 2007's Office button closes Excel. This behaviour has been in place since 1492 when Columbus bumped into the Americas. :)

	I just tried it and it works. Double click closes any app. Well I never knew that. (or needed it). (and I've been using Windows since v1).
