Window kind
| Window kind {( window )} -> Function result | ||||||||
| Parameter | Type | Description | ||||||
| window | WinRef |
|
Window reference number, or Frontmost window of current process, if omitted | |||||
| Function result | Longint |
|
Type of window | |||||
The Window kind command returns the 4D type of the window whose reference number is passed in window. If the window does not exist, Window kind returns 0 (zero).
Otherwise, Window kind may return one of the following predefined constants found in the Windows theme:
| Constant | Type | Value |
| External window | Longint | 5 |
| Floating window | Longint | 14 |
| Modal dialog | Longint | 9 |
| Regular window | Longint | 8 |
If you omit the window parameter, Window kind returns the type of the frontmost window for the current process.
See example for the WINDOW LIST command.
