How to let the Program Exitting with a button? - animation

How to let the Program Exitting with a button? And looks like according to "Home" button animation?

In short, there is no way to do this nicely. Apple puts that control into the hands of the user, so unless you programatically crash your app, there's no way to have a "nice" transition.

How do I close a Mini Program?

This seems like a simple thing to do but I cannot find anything in the documentation about this, does anyone know how I can force a mini-program to close and return back to the super app?
Sadly there's no way to programmatically close a Mini Program. The user will have to manually close the Mini Program using the close button on the title bar to get back to the Super App.

How to know if a button from another application is clicked or not

I need to automate a task with AutoIt script. Target application is "YTD Video downloader". It has a download button. When i click this button, i need my autoit script to start. After a few hours of googling, i understand that i need to use "SetWindowsHookEx" API. But wetting my toe into it, i want to read some example code or some tutorials on this purticular subject. I have googled a lot for finding such tutorials. Every tutorials are related to either keyboard hook or mouse hook. I can't find how to use this api for a button is clicked or not. Please help me. Thanks in advance.
Note: What i have learned yet about SetWindowsHookEx is;
Use "UnHookWindowsEx" when you exit your program.
Is that the only one thing i noticed when doing this ?
Use a spy program like Spy++ to see which messages are being sent by your target application when the button is clicked. There is probably a WM_COMMAND being sent from the download button to its parent window; this is probably the right message to intercept with SetWindowsHookEx.
There are some examples of this around Stack Overflow e.g. here

Need to display a busy window on max with spinner

I'm a new Mac programmer writing my first mac app, actually porting an existing iOS app to MAC.
The app does a lot of remote communication, so when the user kicks off an operation, I want to display a busy window (or message box, or NSAlert maybe), until the operation is completed, then dismiss it programmatically, or the user can click cancel to stop it.
The busy window prevents the user from doing anything until that operation is completed.
The busy window should have a progress spinner, some text, and a cancel button.
Its such a simple thing yet I'm having problems with it because I dont really know MAC programming, getting myself frustrated.
Can anybody offer suggestions, or already written code for it. I hope some code for this already exists because I cant believe I'm the only person in the world who needs things kind of busy window.
Thanks for any help.
You mean something like this:

Source code is available, too (link at the end of the article).
You can just modify the NSPanel in Xcode and add a "Cancel" button that you connect to your cancel action.

Windowsphone Start button handler

Well, I’m developing a small game for Windowsphone (with Silverlight). That way, I’d like how could I handle the Start button event?
Apparently, is not possible to override the Application_Deactivated method, right? Hence, even if I create a method and call it inside Apllication_Deactivated, the game would be finished anyways.
I’d like to show a Canvas, like: Are you show you want to leave the Game. Pretty basic. I’ve done that on return button. So, how could I make the same on Start button?
Cheers,
Short answer: You can't.
Microsoft states that it is not the developers choice to handle what happens when the start button is pressed. What you should do is handle the event and save user state, then reload the state when the user navigates back to the application.

preventing a window from deminiaturizing from dock

How to prevent a window to deminiaturizing when a user click on the dock tile of the window?
In one part of my application , I am miniaturizing the window and then have to ensure that user cannot deminiaturize it for a specified time .The application has more than one window.
Please suggest how to do this in cocoa.
This is against Apple's Human Interface Guidelines (see section 'Minimizing and Expanding Windows') and as a result there is almost certainly no way to do this.
You cannot. That is something the OS is doing and you can't influence it. You need to adapt your design so it's no problem if the user unhides the window.
