Hi Jens -
I just finished uploading a new VM (3.10.8) which generates a window close event when the EnableAltF4Quit preference is turned off. I've tested it with the etoys4 image and it works as expected (for both the close button as well as Alt-F4):

Cheers, - Andreas

Yes, Michael, I already know that much. But this setting just *disables* Alt-F4 as well as the close button. It does not, however, notify my image of any VM-WindowEvents, or does it?
What I want to accomplish is this:
Whenever the user presses the VM's close button I want to be receiving some kind of #windowClose event, which my application can react to. I've seen all the necessary code in the new Etoys image, and I've read about these events in a post by Ian Piumarta (from last year, I think) in the Linux-VM. So, I guess my question is: Does the current (or newest) Win32-VM support these WindowEvents at all, because to me it doesn't seem so? (but it would be sooooo useful!)

if you use a current VM adding EnableAltF4Quit=0
to the .ini does the trick. It controls both F4 and the window close button behavior.
