I notice that the “Include project” action runs the other project quietly, hidden out of view. Would it be possible to have a mode where it spawns another copy of FB then runs the project/action list?  
  
Alternatively, a command line switch that loads a project (visibly) and runs it would be fine.

If you just want to run the whole project, then you can use Execute Program action with relevant switches to run the IDE (or FBCMD) without hiding the window.  
  
What you can do at the moment though is to run a particular action list in a project, although you could get around this by using some variables to control which action list runs.

Ah, cool, didn’t know you could do that. Looks like the /R switch will do exactly what I need. Thanks!
