Frontmost process* {( * )} : Integer
| Parameter | Type | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|
| * | Operator | → | Process number for first non-floating window |
| Function result | Integer | ← | Number of the process whose windows are in the front |
Description
Frontmost process* returns the number of the process whose window (or windows) are in the front.
When you have one or more floating windows open, there are two window layers:
- Regular windows
- Floating windows
If the Frontmost process function is used from within a floating window form method or object method, the function returns the process reference number of the frontmost floating window in the floating window layer. If you specify the optional * parameter, the function returns the process reference number of the frontmost active window in the regular window layer.
