f$Processwindow


f$Processwindow

This function makes it possible to manipulate a window belonging to another process. The window is identified by the window name and process ID. The entire window name does not have to be entered but it should be noted that the part of the window name used is unique, to avoid manipulating a window other than the one desired. The following three possibilities are present as actions for the identified window.

  • Close window
