Wr can not be minimised on its title bar. This is a pitty.
When you ask Windows to minimize all windows using the windows key combined 
with m, Workrave is minimised to a title bar only window. This window features 
a restore button that does not work (it just shows the system menu, a grayed 
maximize button and a close button. There is no way to maximize this window 
except for clicking on the task bar entry.

Fixed. Tested only on XP though, please verify on other platforms...

On NT4, the situation has worsened.

Windows-m still minimises wr to only a titlebar. The titlebar does not have 
minimize and restore buttons any more. In the system menu, the "restore" option 
is no longer available. The only available options are "minimize" (does 
nothing) and "maximise" (displays the window, original size, in the upper left 
of the screen)

In the old situation, the "restore" option was also available, restoring the 
window to its original location.


I'd very much like to see wp behaviour here (no, I'm not biased :-). Wp always 
sits in the system tray. The status window cannot be minimized (it completely 
ignores W-m), only closed. When closed, it can be reopened from the system tray.

I propose to put this bug on hold, until wr, too, is available in the system 
tray.
