Window Behavior in ScriptKit is Confusing #1577
Description
Description
The window behavior in ScriptKit is quite unintuitive. As soon as the window loses focus, it disappears, and when I return to it, I have to start over.
This makes sense for simple scripts that are meant to run once and exit, but for more interactive workflows, such as the “Todo” app described in this course, it’s frustrating. If you’re switching between your todo script and other work, every time you reopen ScriptKit, you’re back at the main window instead of where you left off.
Expected Behavior
• If a script is still running, returning to ScriptKit should reopen it rather than always defaulting to the main window.
• A global “Back” key might help return to the main window when needed, but by default, the last open script should persist.
• Perhaps this behavior could be controlled via metadata in the script itself.
Workarounds & Considerations
I assume assigning a specific hotkey to a script could work as a persistent entry point, but it would be better if this were handled more consistently from the main overflow.
Would love to hear thoughts on whether this is possible or if there are better approaches to handling this!
