Minimize/Restore

Is there a hotkey to do a minimize and restore. Rather a toggle. I have found minimize all and undo minimize all as well as minimize and maximize, which works on the current window. But I would like to minimize a window, take a peek behind it, then restore that same window.

Any ideas??

You could do it using two hotkeys but I don't think there is an easy way to make a toggle (without resorting to VBScript or something).

One key could run Set LISTERCMD=Minimize and the other Set LISTERCMD=Restore

The Restore hotkey would have to be system-wide because after you minimize a window it no longer has the keyboard focus.

Alternatively, you could use a single system-wide hotkey which does Set LISTERCMD=ToggleMinimizeAll to hide/show all listers at once. Not quite what you want, either.

Maybe GPSoft could add a ToggleMinimize command which lets you do what you want, if you ask them. It would still have to be system-wide though, of course.

As an aside, for system-wide hotkeys I find Alt-and Ctrl- to work well. Easy to type and not likely to conflict with anything that I know of.

so what they add ?

Don't think anything has been added for this...

Not sure anyone really even asked GPSoft by submitting a feature request...

plz give someone request with this text "plz create hotkey for minimize and maximize opus from the tray"
i can't my free technical support period has ended

If your free tech support period has ended then you need to either buy the program or stop using it. We're not going to submit feature requests for other people unless they are things that we want ourselves or feel that lots of other people will want.

(Unless you mean you have bought Opus already, and over a year ago. If so then GPSoftware will still give you free tech support provided you're using the latest version.)

BTW, for anyone finding this thread later through searching, there are a couple of extra ideas from Christiaan and myself in the thread linked below (which in turn links back to this thread):
