[news.eclipse.tools] Re: How to add a Minimize button for a MessageDialo

["Knut Radloff" <knut_radloff@xxxxxxx>]

Yes, the maximize button is visible but disabled. Presumably Windows can't hide the maximize button when there is a minimize button.
You can enter a bug against SWT to find out for sure.
I'm not sure what your code snippet would do.
You should do something like:

 public class MinimizableDialog extends Dialog {
  MinimizableDialog(Shell shell) {
   super(shell);
   setShellStyle(getShellStyle() | SWT.MIN);
  }
 }
