Has Taskbar Button and un-minimized main panel

Hey everyone!

 

I find out that I'm not the only one who compliant about this:

https://forums.ni.com/t5/LabWindows-CVI/quot-Has-taskbar-button-quot-Windows-7/m-p/2438818#M62421

but unfortunately I did not find any good solution so far.

I am using CVI 2013 and work in windows 7.

In the application I made, more than one panel could be used.
The problem is:

1. In a case that the option "Has Taskbar Button" is checked, two identical windows of the main panel are displayed on the taskbar.
2  In a case that this option is unchecked and two different panels are displayed willingly (the main panel and another one) - when I minimize the two panels using the regular panel button, the main panel does not appear back on the screen no matter what I do. The icon of the application is still on the taskbar, but when I press on it, or try ALT+TAB nothing works. 

I understood from the previous post that there is some kind of unlikely way to un-minimize the panel (problem 2), but I need a solution that would be more intuitive to anyone who will use this application in the future. 

What can I do in order to solve these problems?

Thanks!

The second problem you are facing can probably be solved by applying the code published by LuisG here.

It should be called once at the beginning of the program, before the call to RunUserInterface ()
