I am able to get my script to minimize a window, in this example Safari3

tell application "Safari3"
	set the miniaturized of window 1 to true
end tell

But I can't see a way to maximise it back again?

Hello Tim,

Not sure if this is what you meant, but perhpaps could this be of some help:

tell application "Safari"
	-- Get a reference to the frontmost window: once
	-- miniaturized, it may not be the frontmost one anymore...
	set W to window 1
	set miniaturized of W to true
	delay 1
	set miniaturized of W to false
end tell


Also, my Applescript has a few dialogue boxes... but on occasion all
that happens is the script bounces in the dock and the dialogue is hidden.


How can I make sure that the running AS has front most focus when I need it.

Is there only 'activate <SCRIPTNAME.APP>

IIRC, this could do the trick:

tell me
	activate
	display dialog "its me!"
end tell

HTH,
Axel _______________________________________________
