Torque 3D 1.1 Beta 3 - Implemented call backs on GuiWindowCtrl are not being called by script[Invalid] - NOT A BUG

I created a GuiWindowCtrl and named it testWindowControl. I then made a couple of functions in script to test the call backs I was getting when I called the testWindowControl.dump() command. I was particularly insterested in the onMaximize();

So I made the onMaximize function and tried to test it:

function testWindowControl::onMaximize()
{
     echo("I have maximized the control");
}

Unfortunatly every time I minimized it and maximized it: it appears it never calls this function. What did I do wrong?

***Answer, I needed to make it onRestore()***

    Hmm, works perfectly here. You pressed the maximize button and the function didn't get called? Stupid question but you sure you have all the little stuff (names, etc.) matching?

    Ohhh, I get it now :/ I was confused. I thought that when I clicked the restore button on onMinimize it called onMaximize. But that simply isn't true. Is there a function that gets called when I restore a window?

    Yep, onRestore which is called if the window is restored from minimized, maximized, or collapsed state.
