iconify a stack

Post by cwkalish » Wed Dec 11, 2013 2:32 am

Hi. I am trying to get one stack to minimize itself while opening a second stack. This script is part of the stack "alien bugs".
Immediately after alien bugs iconifies, it reopens. How can I make a stack keep itself iconic?

on opencard
go to stack "controller"
set the iconic of stack "alien bugs" to true
end opencard

I think I may have found part of the answer: The stacks stay iconified when the command is issued from a button script, but not from an opencard script. Is this because additional message get sent after a card is opened?
