You can obtain a refnum of the VI in the same manner you would for any other VI
Call the window to open , get a refnum of the calling VI and then minimize it.
You can also obtain the refnum on THIS vi and use it, I dont kn
ow if there
are any problems with this as I have never tried but I know what you want
can be done.
