Preventing the user from minimizing an application in Adobe AIR

The following example shows how you can disable the minimize button on a WindowedApplication container by editing the application’s XML file and set the <minimizable> node to false. You can determine if the WindowedApplication is minimizable by using the read-only minimizable property.

Full code after the jump.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!--  -->
<mx:WindowedApplication name="WindowedApplication_minimizable_test"
        xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
        layout="vertical"
        verticalAlign="middle">
 
    <mx:Label text="minimizable: {application.minimizable}"
            fontSize="42" />
 
</mx:WindowedApplication>

And edit the application’s XML file and edit the following lines:

<!-- Whether the user can minimize the window. Optional. Default true. -->
<minimizable>false</minimizable>
