Window Hide removes any visible design window from the display.

Window Load reads a grid function from disk, converts it into a new design window, and displays it on the screen.

Window Save converts a design window into a grid function, then saves it to disk.  The grid function can be loaded with WindowLoad.

Window Delete destroys the visible design window.  All information is lost and is not recoverable, so think carefully before you delete.

Window ToFunction converts the visible design window into:
  A grid function with the same name as the design window.
  A callback function called by the grid function when important events occur in the design window.
  Three lines of code that create, activate, initialize, and display the design window.

Window CloseToolkit hides the toolkit from view.  Click on the toolkit hot button to redisplay the toolkit.
