Re: How to intercept iconifyStack (OS X)
Hiya, Send white noise to the left speaker for 0.5 seconds. It ought to distract them long enough. Cheers, Luis.

I've programmed it all and it works fine, showing the mini window and hiding the usual window. The problem is that I can't stop the original window moving down into the Dock first, THEN my script happens. It hides the original window which removes it from the Dock. I don't really care except visually - I don't want it to look as if the window is going to the Dock, then disappearing. I've tried lock screen lock messages, but nothing stops this. Does anyone have any ideas (apart from crafting my own title bar and scripting the red, orange green blobs myself).

Hi Sarah, Don't you want to handle a click on the zoom (green +) button rather than the minimize button? That's what iTunes uses to switch to the mini window. When I checked the message watcher while clicking the zoom button, the cREVgeometryCache and the cREVGeometry properties get set, then resizeStack and moveStack messages are sent. I don't know whether you can prevent the automatic zoom behavior by intercepting them, however.

Thanks Devin, I guess I do need to check for the green button, but as there was already a system message for the orange button I thought that would be easier. However I'll have a play around with the messages and properties you suggest and see what I can do. Luis's suggestion made me laugh, but I'm not sure that I want to irritate everyone like that. However I'm quite sure it would work as a distraction :-) Cheers, Sarah ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
