- Gordon,
-
- You are correct about how other icons respond to command
- double click, but the NeXT icon is DIFFERENT.
- If the fileviewer is already displayed, then command double click
- hides every application INCLUDING the file viewer.
- Its like a hide all with extreme prejudice. it doesnt bring
- the file viewer forward.
-
- If the file viewer is already hidden, then command double click
- does the same thing for workspace that it does for every other app.
