Hiding a running application

  • Thread-topic: Hiding a running application

Hello,

My app does some processing at quit time that can take a few minutes, so I
thought it would be nice to remove the gui from the user¹s attention so they
don¹t think they can still interact with the program just because there is a
window and a menu visible. So, I hide the main window and the menubar. Then,
I bring Finder to the front. The only thing left is the application¹s icon
in the command-tab list and the Dock, and the entry in the Force Quit
Applications list.

Is there a way to remove these items?

Thanks,
Michael
