activate-pane

Function
Summary

The activate-pane function gives the focus to a pane and brings the window containing it to the front.

Package

capi

Signature

activate-pane pane

Description

This brings the window containing pane to the front, and gives the focus to the pane (or a sensible alternative inside the same interface if that pane cannot accept the focus).

Example

This example demonstrates how to swap the focus from one window to another.

(setq text-input-pane
      (capi:contain (make-instance 
                     'capi:text-input-pane)))
(setq button
      (capi:contain (make-instance
                     'capi:push-button
                     :text "Press Me")))
(capi:activate-pane text-input-pane) (capi:activate-pane button)
