Is there an event to trap the hiding of the window?

Description

I have an app that is represented by a systray icon.

The desired effect is that the wails window appears or disappears when the icon is clicked. I am also making use of HideWindowOnClose = true.

I also have a variable WindowVisible that keeps track of whether the window is visible or not. That way it knows what to do when the icon is clicked.

All works just fine until I close the windows with the X in the corner. Then the WindowVisible variable gets out of sync. A couple of clicks and it is back to normal. But I would like to fix this.

I have tried to use OnBeforeClose, but this only seems to work if HideWindowOnClose = false.

Is there an event I can trap that will allow me to update my variable when the window hides?

There isn't currently an event fired for v2. v3 solves this issue be simply allowing you to attach a window to the systray and it acts as you've described.

Is there an example that references this feature in v2.

Because I don't know how long v3 will have to wait
