    Default movie stops when in system tray?! (windows specific)

    Hello,


    hopefully someone has had this problem before: I'm coding a small movie
    using the free xTray-xTra under Windows for minimizing the movie into
    the system tray when idle.

    After some time has passed (measuring it with "the timer" compared to
    another value during the exitFrame) the movie should bring itself back
    onto the desktop, out of the tray.

    It works fine when in authoring mode, but when in projector mode it
    doesn't seem to do anything once it's in the system tray (though I can
    restore it via the projectors tray menu).

    Has someone got any idea what's going wrong here?


    Best regards and thanks in advance for _any_ hint,
    Roman.

    Hi,

    did you check "animate in background" in the projector options ?
