I know you can hide the menu and title bars by log-in level in Lookout Direct 4.5.1 (Build 19) but is there a way to conceal the task bar on a pop-up panel? I would especially like to hide the red "x " close button. Thank you in advance.

    PrisonSparky, I do not know how to hide the red "X " close button on a popup, but if you simply need the popup to stay displayed, you can program the popup to "activate " if someone does close (or minimize) the popup. The result is the popup stays active, displaying on top. I can give you more detail if this would help.

    KPrice, What I am trying to do is compel the user to close the pop-up using the "close panel " push button I created that also resets certain aspects of the screen and ladder. When the red "x " is used the resets do not occur. For now I have tried to position the pop-up so the task bar is hidden at the top of the screen. It would be great if the task bar could be concealed. I did try to put a plate over the "x " but you cannot put objects on the task bar.

    Oh I see what you 're doing. That makes sense. Would this help? Use the "active " member of the popup? The "active " member goes false (1 to 0), when the popup is closed. Use this member (alone or in addition to your push button) to trigger your logic you 're triggering now by the "close panel " push button. This way, your logic will get triggered if they close the popup by using your "close panel " push button OR the red "x " OR the "- ". Sorry, I know not what you 're asking, but maybe a work-around.
