    Hi,

    I want my Qt app to run in background when user selects Exit button.

    Also if the user launches the app again from the menu, it should come to the foreground.

    I am making the app for symbian devices. Is that possible in Qt?

    Please suggest

    Thanks

      As I see it, you'd want to minimize (or hide) the application?

      "Here's a link":http://developer.nokia.com/Community/Discussion/showthread.php/175531-Minimize-hide-an-application that might help you accomplish that (Symbian specific, even).
