Minimize Window to Notification Area

The Minimize Window to Notification Area command minimizes the window selected and places the program's icon in the notification area. Clicking on the icon in the tray restores the window to its original location and size.

Script Editor > Expand Windows/Programs Category > Minimize Window to Notification Area

Window Title

Enter the title of the window to minimize to the notification area. Or click on the Browse button to see a list of all windows currently running. Select the window from the list to insert the name into the Window Title edit box.

Exact Match

This requires that the window name entered matches exactly with the name of the window waiting to receive focus. For example, if listing Notepad as the window name, but the actual window title is Notepad - Untitled, then the macro would not wait.

Partial Match

The Partial Match option does not require an exact window title match. For example, if waiting for a notepad window, inserting "notepad" or "notep" as the window title will find the window. This is particularly useful as some Window Titles change based on whether a given file is open. Case sensitivity is not required. For example, "NOTepad" will work as well as "notepad".

The Title contains Wildcards

Select this option if a wildcard is included in the window title name. A wildcard uses the " * " or " ? " characters in the title to expand the possibilities of a match. These are similar to the wildcards used in Windows for searches.
