Hi All

Happy New Year

is there a way to close an open folder on the desktop, something like:

close folder(t_path_folder)

as a note I am opening a folder using:

Code: Select all

launch document t_path_folder

Any help on this would be appreciated

Hi.

I do not think so. Such a finder-oriented action is not, I think, possible from LC. You can create one, delete one, move one, but not close one.

I could be wrong.

This is not possible with LC, you need an AppleScript (Mac) or VBScript (Windows) to do that.
Good news, you can execute these scripts from within LC, see "do as alternateLanguage" in the dictionary.
