Start application minimized or normal

Hello,
I would like to start my application minimized, if it's started by autostart (right at the beginning after the user logged in) or normal (in a window), if the user starts the application manually with the exe-file. How can I realize this?

QWidget::showMinimized () can solve the problem. put it inside the constructor.

I would suggest simple solution like command line argument which passed to your app causes minimize launch. Something like this:

Quote:

---

$> app.exe --minimized

---

starts your app minimized.
Then just add to autostart your app.exe as a command with this --minimized, ofcourse if it is possible :]

I used the idea from faltzip and read the cmdlineargs with QCoreApplication::arguments(). So I could use the 1st cmdlinearg as a switch to start the app with show or hide.
