Description jianann87 2012-03-07 09:18:23 UTC 
SDL_CreateWindow("Sample Test", 800, 600, SDL_WINDOW_MINIMIZE);

After calling the above function, the created window does not appear minimize.

(Sorry if you get a lot of copies of this email, we're touching dozens of bug reports right now.)

Tagging a bunch of bugs as target-2.0.0, Priority 2.

This means we're in the final stretch for an official SDL 2.0.0 release! These are the bugs we really want to fix before shipping if humanly possible.

That being said, we don't promise to fix them because of this tag, we just want to make sure we don't forget to deal with them before we bless a final 2.0.0 release, and generally be organized about what we're aiming to ship.

Hopefully you'll hear more about this bug soon. If you have more information (including "this got fixed at some point, nevermind"), we would love to have you come add more information to the bug report when you have a moment.

Thanks!

Can verify that this is not behaving correctly - it starts it minimized, but then immediately restores it. This seems to be caused by SDL_OnWindowShow calling SDL_OnWindowRestored, which calls SDL_RaiseWindow, which calls Cocoa_RaiseWindow, which uses -[NSWindow makeKeyAndOrderFront:]. This seems to cause a deminiaturize.

Will have to figure out if this is the expected behavior of calling SDL_RaiseWindow on a minimized window, and then either change SDL_RaiseWindow or SDL_OnWindowShow/Restore.

Should be fixed in http://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/4310d5aee6fe

Ended up changing SDL_RaiseWindow to not raise a miniaturized window, and then changed our app delegate to not restore a minimized window on first startup.
