WINDOW LIST (windows{; *})
Parameter | Type | Description | |
windows | Array | Array of window reference numbers | |
* | * | If specified, take floating windows into account | |
If omitted, ignore floating windows |
Description
The WINDOW LIST command populates the array windows with the window reference numbers of the windows currently open in all running processes (kernel or user processes).
If you do not pass the optional * parameter, floating windows are ignored.
Example
The following project method tiles all the current open window, except floating windows and dialog boxes:
` TILE WINDOWS project method WINDOW LIST($alWnd) $vlLeft:=10 $vlTop:=80 ` Leave enough room for the Tool bar For ($vlWnd;1;Size of array($alWnd)) If (Window kind($alWnd{$vlWnd}) # Modal Dialog) GET WINDOW RECT($vlWL;$vlWT;$vlWR;$vlWB;$alWnd{$vlWnd}) $vlWR:=$vlLeft+($vlWR-$vlWL) $vlWB:=$vlTop+($vlWB-$vlWT) $vlWL:=$vlLeft $vlWT:=$vlTop SET WINDOW RECT($vlWL;$vlWT;$vlWR;$vlWB;$alWnd{$vlWnd}) $vlLeft:=$vlLeft+10 $vlTop:=$vlTop+25 End if End for
Note: This method could be improved by adding tests on the size of the main window (on Windows) or the size and location of the screens (on Macintosh).
