Tried with the default XP skin as well as some new Vista/Win 7 skins.. all have the same behavior.
It is very odd that the Minimize button behaves like Close vice versa.. that too only in this scenario where a non-mdi child form in an MDI app causes this issue.. 

Hope to get some reply from Oleg...

Have you tried using different skins? Does that solve the problem? I'm not sure if it's possible to be a skin problem instead of a control problem.]]> Thu, 15 Dec 2011 09:44:27 +0000 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=19213&PID=67188&title=mdi-form-min-and-close-button-action-interchanged#67188 <![CDATA[MDI Form min and close button action interchanged : The behavior is not as expected...]]> http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=19213&PID=67179&title=mdi-form-min-and-close-button-action-interchanged#67179 Author: satyakvv

The behavior is not as expected for a normal windows application. You can check the same without calling LoadSkin. Now, the form gets minimized properly instead of getting closed. This looks like a bug with the SkinFramework control.]]> Thu, 15 Dec 2011 04:15:57 +0000 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=19213&PID=67179&title=mdi-form-min-and-close-button-action-interchanged#67179 <![CDATA[MDI Form min and close button action interchanged : If you first activate the MDI...]]> http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=19213&PID=67173&title=mdi-form-min-and-close-button-action-interchanged#67173 Author: Willowmaster

If you first activate the MDI form and then minimize it, it won't close.
If you replace the MDIForm1.Launchme line in Form1 to Form2.Show it minimizes the modeles form instead of the MDI form. It sends the minimize event to the active form. Even if the button has been clicked on a different form.]]> Wed, 14 Dec 2011 09:21:24 +0000 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=19213&PID=67173&title=mdi-form-min-and-close-button-action-interchanged#67173 <![CDATA[MDI Form min and close button action interchanged : Yes I am also facing same problem Please...]]> http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=19213&PID=67171&title=mdi-form-min-and-close-button-action-interchanged#67171 Author: snayaks

Yes

I am also facing same problem

Please find attached VB6 stub from following link

https://support.codejock.com/Attachments/20111214-062626_VB6SkinIssue.zip


1. Run Project1.exe
2. Click "create MDI child" button
3. click "Create Modeless Window" button
4. Now Minimize the MDI window.

Issue : Instead of minimizing, the MDI is getting closed.

Note : Repeat the steps in the same order.

I have an MDI form and a modeless form is open. The modeless form has a web browser control and some text boxes. When the focus is in the web browser control , if I click the MDI minimize button, it is firing the 'close' action. And, if I click the close button, it is firing the minimize event. The problem does not occur when the modeless form is not active. 

Using SkinFramework 15.1.3 in VB6.0 on Windows 7 (32/64 bit).

Has anyone faced a similar issue ?
