Name
HideDisplay -- minimize the current display (V3.0)
Synopsis
HideDisplay([toback])
Function
This function minimizes the current display. The script execution will continue while the display is minimized. You can use the ShowDisplay() command to bring a minimized display back to the front.

If you want to close the display instead of minimizing it, use the CloseDisplay() command instead.

Starting with Hollywood 8.0, there is an optional argument named toback, which is only supported on AmigaOS and compatible systems. If you set it to True, the display won't be minimized, but instead it will be hidden by moving it all the way to the bottom of the current screen's window stack, i.e. all other windows will appear in front of it then.

Inputs
toback
optional: whether to hide the window by moving it to the bottom of the window stack instead of minimizing it; this is only supported on AmigaOS and compatible systems (defaults to False) (V8.0)
Example
HideDisplay()
Wait(100)
ShowDisplay()
This code hides the display, waits two seconds, and pops up the display again.
