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.

Since that won't work I tried;

tell application "Finder"
	activate
	tell application "System Events"
		keystroke "h" using {command down, option down}
	end tell
end tell

That works.

Thanks all,

I'm confused. Where do you run this script from? If it's an application, it's a visible process, right? If from a script editor, the editor is a visible process, right?


So, wouldn't there still be a visible application?
