AreFloatingWindowsVisible

Indicates whether an application's floating windows are currently visible.



 
pascal Boolean AreFloatingWindowsVisible (void);

function result: A value of type Boolean . The AreFloatingWindowsVisible function returns true if the application's floating windows are currently shown. Otherwise, if the application's floating windows are currently hidden, or if the function InitFloatingWindows has not been called prior to a call to AreFloatingWindowsVisible , it returns false .

DISCUSSION

When your application receives a suspend event, it must hide any visible floating windows. When your application receives a resume event, it must make its floating windows visible again. If your application needs to check which visibility state its floating windows are in, it may call the AreFloatingWindowsVisible function.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS

You should call the function InitFloatingWindows prior to calling AreFloatingWindowsVisible .

The AreFloatingWindowsVisible function operates only upon windows created with the kFloatingWindowClass constant; see Window Class Constants for more details on this constant.

VERSION NOTES

Supported with Mac OS 8.6 and later.
