Bob,
What file(s) do I need to add?
When I try adding to Stack Properties it won’t let me select macOStools.lcb.
I can add other files in the standalone builder I still don’t see
macOStools.lcb in the Inclusions and it doesn’t hide.
I think I need more complete instructions.
Thank you,
Bill
Open Stack Properties, add to the stackfiles. Also in the standalone builder
you can add other files and folders that are not stack files.

You have to include the library it in the standalone settings, in the
inclusions tab. If it is greyed-out then go to the "general" tab and click
"select inclusions for standalone"

Paul,
Very nice! I see you have some other useful tools as well.
It is working in the IDE but I can’t figure out how to get it into my
standalone.
Thank you,

Your AppHide/AppUnhide sounds perfect. I will try it.

You can easily use AppleScript mixed with LiveCode script to change focus
to another app:
*do *"tell application "& quote& "PhotoShop"& quote& " to activate"as
AppleScript
You could also use AppHide / AppUnhide from my LCB Library macOSTools
to minimize your stack

Have you looked at the Launch command?
launch [documentPath with] applicationPath
Documentation:
Description
Use the launch command to start an application for the user to use.
When the launch command executes, the application being launched comes to the
foreground. When the user quits,
I just read the documentation. It seems to be talking about DontUseQT and
DonUseQTEffects, not hide stack itself.

Sorry. That should read the newest version of LiveCode that behaves the way I
want is 5.5.5. I haven’t had to rebuild this application until now due to Apple
removing support for 32bit apps.

You can certainly use AS to query the frontmost application but I'm guessing as
soon as you click the button in your app then your app is it. You can also
query the application processes - if they are sorted in order from frontmost to
'rearmost' then maybe you could tell the second process in
I was hoping to avoid using AppleScript but I might have to.
The oldest version of LiveCode I have that behaves the way I want is 5.5.5.
LiveCode must have changed this after version 5.

Mark,
OK. That makes sense and matches the behavior as my window does hide.
However, the Mac doesn’t give any window the focus. My application doesn’t
really hide. It just closes the window but staying as the frontmost application.
I need my whole application to hide to give the target window
Bob,
I want my stack to completely hide not make another window of my application
the frontmost. I want the target application (like a web browser page) that was
underneath my app to now have focus.
Thanks,
