Jim;

... and thanks for the workaround ... this has been bugging me for a long time.

Insists on bringing Fetch to the front, which it shouldn't do.

Thanks for reporting this. Fetch is coming to the front in case the window is busy and it needs your permission to close. It's a bug that this happens even when the window is not busy, and I will see about fixing that for a future release.


In the meantime you can work around the problem by telling Fetch that you want the window closed whether it is busy or not, e.g.:

tell application "Fetch"
   close transfer window 1 saving no
end tell

If you specify "saving no" Fetch will immediately close the window, without asking to be brought to the front.

It can't start a second operation to the same site,
for example, without opening another window.

It's true that Fetch can only have one operation happening at a time in a window, so it will open a second window if the first window is busy. But if the first window is idle Fetch should re-use it.


Thanks again for reporting this problem,
