minimize a palette stack?

[Mark Swindell]

Thanks Sarah and Eric,

I also observed that the decorations didn't stick when the window was  
set to palette.  "Float over everything" sets the  style of the stack  
to palette.

What I'm after is a stack that behaves as a palette (floats above  
everything else in my application), but can still be minimized.  This  
navigation stack controls multiple other stacks in the application.   
When any one of these other stacks is open and visible, I don't want  
the user to be able to close the navigation stack, as then they are  
locked out of further movement in the program.  The ability to  
minimize it would be good, though.  I'd actually like it to have  
_only_ the minimize option.  I can set this "decoration" scheme for a  
regular stack, but not a floating stack.

Does this make sense?

Any suggestions or solutions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Mark
