#169 CfgDeny: "Hidden" does not work?

Description

Tried this on the Skype Client:

Define = "Sticky" { 

   ApplyOn = "Start New"
   Sticky = "True"

}

Property = "^skype,^Skype" { 

   @Sticky
   Iconified = "False"
   CfgDeny = "Hidden"
   Skip = "Snap"

}

The rule works because the client is sticky and other windows will not snap to it. However the CfgDeny setting seems to not work at all... if I attempt to close the window (press the X on the window border decoration button) the window is just hidden, but Skype Continues running. I often choose to run skype from a terminal so I can actually terminate it after I accidentally "close it".

So "CfgDeny = "Hidden"" does not work? Or it simply behaves in a manner different than I expected?

Oh... alright, I guess then there's no way around this. Skype unfortunately has no option to tell it to not do this, and I can't just change the default behaviour of my keybinding used for closing windows to specially be changed for skype. Though, not a bug related to PekWM anymore.

Thanks. Set the status as invalid.

I assume that the skype window is not hidden but actually closed. The program can run in the background without having a window open (or iconified for that matter). Perhaps you can disable this in skype's configuration? Or you might try to use the 'kill' action instead.
