Hiding the Status Area

Try that find script in the FIND.fp5 file once more. Once you enter find mode, notice that you can see the Continue and Cancel button in the status area. This is not good. If the user cancels the script, they will remain in the Find layout. One way around this problem is to hide the status area.

Now when you enter the Find layout, the status area is hidden.
