Teasy	Created : 21 August 2007 System : Windows Language : Blitz Window Handling Some more basic Window control for Blitz3D.
This enables you to for example maximize/restore the Blitz3D window. As well as some more things, see further below. ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ; ; Window Handling (Set window state) ; ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Const SW_HIDE = 0 Const SW_SHOWNORMAL = 1 Const SW_NORMAL = 1 Const SW_SHOWMINIMIZED = 2 Const SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED = 3 Const SW_MAXIMIZE = 3 Const SW_SHOWNOACTIVATE = 4 Const SW_SHOW = 5 Const SW_MINIMIZE = 6 Const SW_SHOWMINNOACTIVE = 7 Const SW_SHOWNA = 8 Const SW_RESTORE = 9 Const SW_SHOWDEFAULT = 10 Const SW_MAX = 11 ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ; Change the active window, e.g. Blitz Function ShowWindow( message = SW_NORMAL ) window_handle = API_GetActiveWindow() API_ShowWindow( window_handle , message ) End Function ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ; Example ; ; Graphics 512,384 , 0,3 ; Print "untouched" : WaitKey : Cls ; showwindow sw_maximize ; Print "maximized" : WaitKey : Cls ; showwindow sw_restore ; Print "restored" : WaitKey : Cls ; End ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ; * Active window functions ; User32.decls: ; .lib "USER32.DLL" ; API_ShowWindow( hWnd% , nCmdShow% ) : "ShowWindow" ; API_GetActiveWindow%() : "GetActiveWindow" Function MaximizeActiveWindow() API_ShowWindow API_GetActiveWindow() , 3 End Function Function MinimizeActiveWindow() API_ShowWindow API_GetActiveWindow() , 6 End Function Function RestoreActiveWindow() API_ShowWindow API_GetActiveWindow() , 9 End Function ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ; ; Window dimensions (desktop and active window) ; ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Type struct_RECT Field Left Field Top Field Right Field Bottom End Type Global struct_RECT.struct_RECT = New struct_RECT ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ; userlibs: ; user32.decls ; .lib "user32.dll" ; api_GetDesktopWindow%() : "GetDesktopWindow" ; api_GetWindowRect%( hwnd% , lpRect* ) : "GetWindowRect" ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Function ActiveWindowWidth() api_GetWindowRect api_GetActiveWindow() , struct_RECT Return struct_RECT\Right - struct_RECT\Left End Function Function ActiveWindowHeight() api_GetWindowRect api_GetActiveWindow() , struct_RECT Return struct_RECT\Bottom - struct_RECT\Top End Function Function DesktopWidth() api_GetWindowRect api_GetDesktopWindow() , struct_RECT Return struct_RECT\Right - struct_RECT\Left End Function Function DesktopHeight() api_GetWindowRect api_GetDesktopWindow() , struct_RECT Return struct_RECT\Bottom - struct_RECT\Top End Function ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Function WindowDimensions_Demo() Graphics 160,120 , 0,3 SetBuffer BackBuffer() Repeat Cls Text 0,0 , "Canvas: "+GraphicsWidth()+"x"+GraphicsHeight() Text 0,10 , "Window: "+ActiveWindowWidth()+"x"+ActiveWindowHeight() Text 0,20 , "Desktop: "+DesktopWidth()+"x"+DesktopHeight() Flip Until KeyHit( 1 ) End End Function ;windowdimensions_demo --v
