EXE calling EXE - focus problem

[Otto]

To all,

I have a program to control and navigate subprograms on a touch screen system.

The problem is that if a user for starting a subprogram (exe) double clicks the focus is again on the main (calling) program.
Does someone know a solution for this problem?

Thanks in advance
Otto

Otto,

You could use WaitRun() to invoke the new EXE and disable your main window before:

Code: Select all  Expand view

oWnd:Disable()
WaitRun( cAnotherEXEName )
oWnd:Enable()

Hello Antonio,
thank you.
I tried your suggestion but I feel that double click is executed before ownd:disable().
This does not work. As a workaround I use: SetWindowPos( ::hWnd, -1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 3 )
in the “called” programs.

Best regards,
Otto
