I already tryed this and it works, but doing this, we are only hiding the screenwindow, and it will be runnning in the background i think. I also have another solution, but i don't like the way it looks running, that is calling again the base screen where the screen window is called, but without calling the screenwindow. Each time i do this i get a reload delay, and i see all objects being loaded (it's not pretty)... Anyway thanks for the tip. best regards
