Create a windows form initially hidden

I've recently had the need to create a hidden windows .NET form (from creation) and found numerous suggestions, however the most simple and elegant way seems to be:

this->ShowInTaskbar = false;
this->WindowState = System::Windows::Forms::FormWindowState::Minimized

.. before you create the window/message pump with Application::Run().

Having trouble setting the height of a .NET Winform TextBox control?

Make sure multiline is set to true!
