Hi,
I am puzzled why some programs (like Audacity & Filezilla), when you close them down using the little red button on the top left, they go to 'Invisible' in the program dock menu for that program. (I hope that is clear).

 I'm wondering several things:
(a) What does 'invisible' mean (not to be confused with invisible files which start with a fullstop) (b) How do you make the program un-invisible (i find I have to 'force quit it in the dock, and then restart it). (c) Is there some way I can stop programs from going 'invisible', when I really want to stop (ie, disappear altogether).

Hello Clyde,

Don't just 'close' the application's window by clicking the red button .... Quit the actual application. Either by going to Menu bar at top of your screen click on the application's name then scroll to Quit (Application's name).
Or click & hold on it's icon in the dock & go to Quit.

Then the Application quits & it will disappear completely.

Cheers,
Ronni
