| GUI.ShowWindow | Part of GUI module |
| Syntax | GUI.ShowWindow (window : int)
|
| Description | Hides a window with widgets in it. This procedure makes certain
that the GUI Library recognizes that the window no longer visible.
This procedure will call Window.Hide, so there is no need
for the user to do so.
|
| Example | The program opens up a window with two buttons. If the button
labelled "Close and Open" is pressed, the window is closed and
a new window with two buttons is opened in a random location on
the screen.
import GUI
var windowA, windowB : int
var buttonA, buttonB, buttonQuit : int
var backToMainA, backToMainB : int
procedure ShowWindowA
GUI.HideWindow (defWinID)
GUI.ShowWindow (windowA)
end ShowWindowA
procedure ShowWindowB
GUI.HideWindow (defWinID)
GUI.ShowWindow (windowB)
end ShowWindowB
procedure ShowMain
GUI.HideWindow (Window.GetActive)
GUI.ShowWindow (defWinID)
end ShowMain
View.Set ("graphics:280;100,nobuttonbar")
% Place the buttons in the main window
buttonA := GUI.CreateButton (10, 10, 0, "Show Window A", ShowWindowA)
buttonB := GUI.CreateButton (150, 10, 0, "Show Window B", ShowWindowB)
buttonQuit := GUI.CreateButton (100, 60, 0, "Quit", GUI.Quit)
windowA := Window.Open ("title:Window A,graphics:150;100,position:bottom;left")
backToMainA := GUI.CreateButton (20, 20, 0, "Back to Main", ShowMain)
Window.Hide (windowA)
windowB := Window.Open ("title:Window B,graphics:150;100,position:bottom;right")
backToMainB := GUI.CreateButton (20, 20, 0, "Back to Main", ShowMain)
Window.Hide (windowB)
