Hi :)
I was wondering if the David meant the splash screen you get when
LIbreOffice is open but no documents are showing.

In many OSes if you click on the 'button' that appears on the task-bar /
launcher / whatever then that kinda minimises LibreOffice and gets back to
the desktop.  If you are Mac or a Gnu&Linux then you can switch to a
different "workspace".

If David meant the "Start Screen" on Windows 8 then i haven't a clue.

It's all a bit unclear which OS and which "start screen"
Regards from
Tom :)

If by "start screen" you mean you mean all program windows minimized so the
desktop is shown just as it appears after logging on to the computer then
yes it would be possible.

It would require a macro that talks to Windows (if that's what you're
using) and tells it to minimize all open windows.

The same thing can be done without writing a macro. Press the "Windows
key"+D key combination and all windows are minimized. Press it again and
the windows are all restored. "Windows key" is the key next to the space
bar with the small flag on it. The key combination will work even if you're
not using LO.

A LO macro to do this would have to send the "Windows key"+D command to
Windows. That's something I don't know how to do. Hopefully the keyboard
combination I've mentioned would be sufficient for your needs.
