Here's a simple script that doesn't work as I would expect. As you can see I want all applications to end up not visible. Neither of the last lines do that. "set visible of every application process whose visible is true to false" leaves one of the applications visible when the script is done. I notice that a Command-H is often grayed out in the application.

Am I missing some key ingredient here?

Only that the OS won't allow all application processes to be not visible; there has to be at least one visible application at all times.


Thats the reason when you manually choose "Hide Others" in any application, its Command-H is disabled, and you can't hide it.
