Methods

Active()

This function sends a request to the Windows Manager to activate the window. If honored by the Windows Manager, the window receives the keyboard focus.

Declaration

public void Active()

Remarks

This is just a request that the Windows Manager may ignore, so calling this function does not ensure in any way that the window is going to be the active one after it.

AddResizeObject(EvasObject)

Adds an object as a resize object of the window.

Declaration

public void AddResizeObject(EvasObject obj)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
EvasObject	obj	Resize object.

Remarks

Setting an object as a resize object of the window means that the object child's size and position is controlled by the window directly. That is, the object is resized to match the window size and should never be moved or resized manually by the developer. In addition, resize objects of the window control the minimum size of it as well as whether it can or cannot be resized by the user.

BringDown()

Brings down the window object. Places the window pointed by object at the bottom of the stack, so that no other window is covered by it.

Declaration

public void BringDown()

CreateHandle(EvasObject)

Creates a widget handle.

Declaration

protected override IntPtr CreateHandle(EvasObject parent)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
EvasObject	parent	Parent EvasObject.

Returns

Type	Description
System.IntPtr	Handle IntPtr.

Overrides

EvasObject.CreateHandle(EvasObject)

CreateServiceSocket(string, int, bool)

Creates a socket to provide the service for the Plug widget.

Declaration

public bool CreateServiceSocket(string name, int number, bool systemWide)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
string	name	A service name.
int	number	A number (any value, 0 being the common default) to differentiate multiple instances of services with the same name.
bool	systemWide	A boolean that if true, specifies to create a system-wide service all users can connect to, otherwise the service is private to the user ID that created the service.

Returns

Type	Description
bool	If true creates successful, otherwise false.

DeleteResizeObject(EvasObject)

Deletes the subobj as a resize object of the window object. This function removes the object subobj from the resize objects of the window object. It will not delete the object itself, which will be left unmanaged and should be deleted by the developer, manually handled, or set as child of some other container.

Declaration

public void DeleteResizeObject(EvasObject obj)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
EvasObject	obj	Resize object.

FocusSkip(bool)

Sets the window to be skipped by focus. This sets the window to be skipped by normal input. This means the Windows Manager will be asked to not focus this window as well as omit it from things like the taskbar, pager etc. Call this and enable it on the window BEFORE you show it for the first time, otherwise it may have no effect. Use this for windows that have only output information or might only be interacted with by the mouse or fingers, and never for typing input. Be careful that this may have side-effects like making the window non-accessible in some cases unless the window is specially handled. Use this with care.

Declaration

public void FocusSkip(bool skip)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
bool	skip

KeyGrabEx(string)

Sets the keygrab of the window.

Declaration

public void KeyGrabEx(string keyname)

Parameters

Declaration

public void KeyUngrabEx(string keyname)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
string	keyname	The keyname string to unset keygrab.

PullUp()

Pulls up the window object. Places the window pointed by object at the top of the stack, so that it's not covered by any other window.

Declaration

public void PullUp()

SetRotation(int, bool)
