DesktopWindowUtils.closeWindow();

You might have a problem to bring back to windows due to a macOS limitation. You should add the following code to your "macos/Runner/AppDelegate.swift" file for handling the window operations.

override func applicationShouldHandleReopen(_: NSApplication, hasVisibleWindows flag: Bool) -> Bool {
  if !flag {
      for window: AnyObject in NSApplication.shared.windows {
          window.makeKeyAndOrderFront(self)
      }
  }
  return true
}

Minimizing the current window

DesktopWindowUtils.minimizeWindow();

      }
  }
  return true
}

Bringing back the current window

Helps you to open/bring back the current window programmatically regardless of its state (miniaturized or closed).

  isDividerInvisible: true,
  isUsingToolbar: true,
);
