Hi,

Is it possible to get the FW application exit event to the foreground ?

This way you put a window foreground

SetForeGroundWindow( oWnd:hWnd )

Next, do you want to close it ?
regards, saludos

I don't need to bring the application to the foreground. I just wanted to know if my app is in the foreground or not ?

Code: Select all  Expand view
if GetForeGroundWindow() == oWndMain:hWnd
   MsgInfo( "you app is in foreground" )
endif

Thank you, Antonio!

Is it possible to intercept the moment when the window is in the foreground ? For example, my application is in the background. In the foreground is some other application. I am closing this application. As a result, my application comes to the fore. This is the moment I need to catch

It seems as EVENT_SYSTEM_FOREGROUND is the event to check

Lets look for some examples...

I'll try using EVENT_SYSTEM_FOREGROUND. Or I'll just check GetForegroundWindow() == oWndMain:hWnd in the timer
