Hi Haleh,

sorry, you can have only one window selected at a time.

If you need to keep more than one image, you have to create a loop over
all images.

Here is a rough Javascript example. It only cares about visible images,
not about images created in BatchMode or images not shown for other reasons.

allIDs = WindowManager.getIDList();
if (allIDs==null) exit(); // return;
for (i = 0; i<allIDs.length; i++) {
   imp = WindowManager.getImage(allIDs[i]);
   title = imp.getTitle();
   if (title != "Stack1.tif" && title != "Stack1.tif") {
     win = imp.getWindow();
     if (win != null) {
       imp.changes = false;
       win.close();
     }
   }
}


Michael
