GPU-Z Minimize On Close option (feature request)

[TheExplorer]

Hello, guys!

GPU-Z 'Minimize On Close' settings option is not user-friendly
What's wrong is that it behaves differently for Close button at the top right corner (minimization works) and a real Close button at the bottom (the program exits). Again, when hitting Esc - it also exits.
I guess it would be better to make the same functionality for all these three Close actions. Well, at least it's done in all other software this way.

Thank you!

I don't think this is best. IMHO, pressing Escape or clicking Close should ask for confirmation, via an extra setting - a new, separate setting in Settings one can turn on or off as they wish, named "Confirm on exit" (or some other such similar text as suitable).

I'm talking about 'Minimize On Close' option. The program has three Close actions actually and it distracts a bit. At first I thought that it simply doesn't work, but after some clicking and closing I realized that it only works for the Close button [X] in the top right corner. Should be the same for the Close button at the bottom at least + Esc keyboard button. Or... It should be configurable somewhere.

I know. This option was one suggested by me! (a while ago)
Yes, agree an extra setting for this would be nice.

EDIT: Okay, here is my feedback - Alt+F4 should also NOT close GPU-Z, if this option is enabled.
Double-clicking the system menu - top left - also does an exit, and also should not do that, as you say.

What's the method to exit the program then?

 

[Naki]

Change the below button caption to EXIT (instead of 'Close'). Clicking that would EXIT the app.

Doing a double-click of system menu, or single click the X in top right, or pressing Al4+F4 (unsure about this one) would work with the Setting as set in Settings.
So, only way to exit would be via the Exit button if the setting is on.

Does this sound OKay to you, please? OF course, if Minimize on close option is OFF, one can use any of those ways to exit.

The same way it is on every other program that does "Minimize on Close", right click on the tray icon and select close once it is already minimized.

 

[Naki]

That is a good way too! (and present already anyway - in "Exit" choice of the right-click menu)

Alright, seems reasonable, will add for next release

I guess this option should trigger ALL exit methods, except ALT+F4. Not sure about the last one since I'm not a programmer, but I'm sure there should be some system-wide standards that the devs might be aware of. It's just my little feature request. Thanks in advance!
