Dialog windows in Eclipse (e.g. Preferences) do not appear in the Windows taskbar.
How can I achieve the same effect using SWT in my application?

Thanks for an answer

Check the source. My assumption was that the Eclipse dialogs were
nothing more than Shell(s) with different trim constants.

if the parent of the shell is another shell, as opposed to the display,
it will not appear in the taskbar.

Thanks. I've just noticed that the Shell object I was passing to the constructor was (by accident) null :/
