T-Link "Hide" not working

Hi,
I noticed that in V 69_5 of T-Link, when the "Hide" button is pushed in the GUI, the program actually closes and the brake assignment is deactivated.
I would assume that the "Hide" button, when pushed, should keep T-Link active and move the GUI to the task bar.

Can we get that corrected, or if my assumption is incorrect, what then is the function of the "Hide" button?
Thanks

Just bumping this. I agree 'Hide' should do just that, and not toggle the state.

What version of Windows do you use? I`ve tried T-Link 0.69.5 and it works. When I press hide tool moves to task bar and its state changes to stopped. Icon is grey. To start tool click icon. It becomes green and status toggles to started.
That is all.

Windows 10 here. What I'm saying is "Hide" should NOT toggle the state to "Stopped" in the first place. What logic is there in that? Hide should mean go away, not stop functioning.

Normal logic. Close button stops and exits. Hide toggles state.

Doesn't Start/Stop also toggle state? Why duplicate that function?

Sorry, I gave up on this post after a week passed with n o response from VKB.
Understand that Hide moves the GUI to the task bar and changes state to "Off". As the other poster here indicates, the change of state should not occur when moving to the Task Bar. The state should remain unchanged when the "Hide" button is clicked. As it is now, the Brakes must be activated twice if Hide is used after the initial activation. That makes no sense, does it?

Please modify T-Link to retain the state when Hide is used to minimize to the task bar.
