HiliteWindow

Highlight or unhighlight a window

#include <Windows.h> Window Manager

void HiliteWindow( theWindow, OnOffFlag );

WindowPtr theWindow ; window of interest

Boolean OnOffFlag ; TRUE=highlight, FALSE=unhighlight

HiliteWindow lets you manually highlight or unhighlight a window; that is,

make the title bar white, dim the scroll bars, erase the grow icon, etc.

theWindow is a WindowPtr obtained via NewWindow or GetNewWindow.

OnOffFlag is a Boolean value specifying which action to take. It may be one of:

TRUE Highlight the window

FALSE Unhighlight the window

Notes: The highlighting/unhighlighting is performed by the window definition

function that varies for each window type. On windows having a grow icon:

this does not redraw the grow box in its new state, but the next time you

call DrawGrowIcon, it will be shown with its correct highlighting.

This function is used rarely since SelectWindow takes care of window

highlighting.
