Description
Adjust Window acts on the active window of the current script's file.
Notes
- If a window is hidden using this script step, FileMaker Go does not hide the window, but it moves the window to the end of the list of open windows.
- macOS: This script step has no effect on a full-screen window, and returns an error code.
- If the active window is a card, only the Resize to Fit option is available. Once Resize to Fit runs, the Restore option is available.
- In FileMaker WebDirect, only the Resize to Fit option is available, which works with cards.
