AllowMinimize Property
This content is no longer actively maintained. It is provided as is, for anyone who may still be using these technologies, with no warranties or claims of accuracy with regard to the most recent product version or service release.
The AllowMinimize property indicates whether users can minimize the Web Part in the dashboard view, reducing it to a title bar or some other title-only, reduced-content appearance. You might want a particular Web Part, such as an advertising banner or primary navigation Web Part, to be visible at all times. If so, set this property to FALSE. If you set this property to TRUE, the user can minimize the Web Part if the dashboard includes a minimize feature. (There is no strict requirement that a dashboard view provide a minimize feature. It only is required that the view does not make it possible for a Web Part to be minimized if this property is set to FALSE.)
If you set this property and the AllowRemove property to FALSE, the Web Part will be visible in the dashboard view always, and users cannot remove or hide the Web Part.
**Note **This property does not have an effect on the Microsoft® Exchange engine. It is possible for someone using an Exchange client, such as CDO, to access an individual item and set the IsIncluded property to FALSE — even if you set AllowMinimize to FALSE. Use engine-level Access Control Lists (ACLs) to prohibit users from modifying these properties using other access paths.
