Minimize Microsoft Outlook Express into an icon in the system
tray - hide the Outlook window from the taskbar.
The popular e-mail client Microsoft Outlook Express (as well as Outlook 97 /
2000 / XP) does not have the built-in option of minimizing it into the system
tray. Usually Microsoft Outlook Express must be started at the beginning of
your day so that you can get notifications about the incoming mail, scheduled
events, etc. Although these events take place rarely, Microsoft Outlook Express
must be running all the time not to miss the moment. Outlook Express occupies
space on the taskbar all the day and due to this there is less space for the
buttons of other programs left. You cannot hide Microsoft Outlook Express into
an icon in the system tray and free some space for other software. TweakWindow
can help you solve this problem in Microsoft Outlook Express (and in Outlook 97
/ 2000 / XP)!
Now you can minimize it into an icon in the systems tray with a
click or a hotkey. The tray icon of the program occupies much less space than
its taskbar button and you get additional space for other programs.
Additionally, if the program is minimized into the tray, it is not displayed in
the ALT+TAB dialog and you can use fewer keystrokes to switch between windows.
To display Microsoft Outlook Express minimized into the tray, just click the
Outlook icon in the tray. You can specify the number of clicks you find
comfortable for displaying a window - one click or a double click. All the time
that Microsoft Outlook stays minimized in the system tray, it continues
carrying out its functions - receiving mail and news, performing scheduled
tasks and meetings, etc. At any time you can open the Outlook window, do some
work and hide Outlook again. Just install TweakWindow to get these advantages.
If you want to hide the Microsoft Outlook Express window so
no-one see it while you are away from the computer, use the "Hide
Window" feature instead of "Minimize a window into the
system tray".
If you want to quickly hide Microsoft Outlook Express, use the
Quickly minimize / hide into the tray without using the keyboard or moving
the mouse feature.
TweakWindow provides you with four ways to minimize Microsoft Outlook Express
into an icon in the system tray - the "MinToTray" button on
its title bar, the "MinToTray " command from its system menu,
hotkeys or the Quickly minimize / hide into the tray without using the keyboard
or moving the mouse
feature. You can assign the key combination you find comfortable as the
"MinToTray" hotkey.
TweakWindow has the "Restore all" command that restores all modified windows
(transparent, topmost, ghost, minimized into the tray, hidden, changed icon and
title, etc.) to their original state. Additionally, all windows will be
restored once you exit TweakWindow.
TweakWindow supports the following operating systems:
-
Windows 2000
-
Windows XP
-
Windows 2003

Learn more about other features:
-
Transparent window.
Through a transparent window, you can see the contents of the window that is
below the one you are currently working with. With the "Transparent window"
feature, you will save a lot of time you would otherwise spend on switching
between windows.
-
Window always on top.
You can make a window stay always on top and this window will be displayed
above all other windows, when you are working with them. This will allow you to
see the results in the work of a program even if you are currently working with
another application that occupies the entire screen. If you want it, the window
can be made transparent whenever you make it topmost.
-
Rollup window.
Do you want to see a window on the screen so that it occupies as little space
as possible? Use the Rollup window feature for minimizing the size of the
window to the size of its title bar.
-
Ghost window.
If you want to see the window on top, but it is large in size and you have to
work with a window below it - make it a Ghost! A Ghost window stays on top of
other windows, can be transparent and let mouse clicks THROUGH to a window
below!
-
Minimizing a
window into the system tray. A lot of programs (such as
Microsoft Outlook Express, Windows Media Player and others) have no built-in
feature for minimizing into the tray. These programs must be running all the
time while you are working with the computer, but you use them only
occasionally. Other programs may be used only infrequently, etc. All those
programs occupy space on the taskbar and make it difficult to navigate between
windows. For example -
Minimize Microsoft Outlook Express into an icon in the system tray.
-
Hide window.
Are you afraid to start some programs because someone may see you using them?
Do you close programs and documents when you leave the computer because someone
may see your confidential information or steal your ideas? Now you don't have
to close all windows, when you leave the room - just hide them. Now you don't
have to close a game or your browser when someone comes up to you - just hide
them.
-
Chameleon feature.
Do you avoid using the Autohide feature of the taskbar and all active programs
are visible on your taskbar (that is, their icons and titles)? Do your
colleagues look over your shoulder and tell your boss every time they see you
surfing the Internet or playing games? Does your network administrator use some
spyware to detect if there is any forbidden software running? With TweakWindow,
you can change the title and the icon of any window.
-
Quickly minimizing into
the tray / hiding a window without using the keyboard or moving the mouse.
Do you need to quickly hide the window when somebody is coming up to your
display? TweakWindow helps you solve these problems.

Moving a window by clicking and

Do you need to move a window when the pointer is far from its title bar? Do you
have to get the pointer back to its previous position after you move a window?
Are you disappointed at the fact that Microsoft has not implemented such a
feature? Your problems are solved with TweakWindow!
-

pointer to the default button in dialog boxes" system
