Some properties were modified.
Also some new properties were added :
1)ShowInTaskBar allow not to minimize the form onto TaskBar;
2)ShowForm allow completely hide the form from the user and Alt-Tab Menu;
3)RunMinimized disallow application's start-up in minimized state because minimized form will appear onto Task Bar;
4)DefRClick and DefLClick activates the form if ShowForm = true and no code assigned to these eventhandlers;
5)the Icon by default is the application's icon;
6)HideApp doesn't conflict with Windows NT now;
The first time you try TTrayComponent just put it onto the form and run app to test default options.
Any changes,bugs and suggestions please report to ras@ras.udm.ru
