The IsMainAppWindow function doesn't return True for the "MainWindow". It returns True only for the Main-App-Window ("App" is the keyword here). And that is the "TApplication" window in Delphi unless you set "Application.MainFormOnTaskbar := True;". Without it your MDI form is a child of the TApplication window and IsMainAppWindow returns False.

Hierarchie with Application.MainFormOnTaskbar=False (older Delphi versions and old Projects where the True value was not set in the *.dpr file)
- TApplication (Parent = Desktop)
- TMainForm (Parent = TApplication)

Hierarchie with Application.MainFormOnTaskbar=True
- TApplication (Parent = Desktop)
- TMainForm (Parent = Desktop)
