Script to minimize FMP application?

[shorton]

I have a cross platform database that requires me to be able to allow users to close all of the open files without exiting the application. This works just fine.

However, on the Windows platorm is there a way to add code to the script so that after the open FMP files are closed the FMP application then minimizes?

On the Mac platform this is not an issue for with no open files, the application is no longer visible to the user anyway despite that it is still running. In Windows, however, once all files are closed users are left with a blank maximized FMP window that many confused novice users then exit, defeating the purpose of my "close files only" option in the script.

Thanks, Scott

Hi Shorton,

if you are confident with WSH (Windows Scripting Host) or VB scripting then try something with one of these, else take a look to WinBatch (www.windoware.com) a nice product to easily build windows native batches

(and not only!).
