ShowHide

Show or hide a window

#include <Windows.h> Window Manager

void ShowHide( theWindow, showFlag );

WindowPtr theWindow ; ID of window to show or hide

Boolean showFlag ; TRUE=show, FALSE=hide

ShowHide lets you show or hide a window, without affecting the

front-to-back ordering of the windows.

theWindow is a WindowPtr obtained via NewWindow or GetNewWindow.

showFlag is a Boolean value specifying whether to show or hide a window. It

may be one of:

TRUE Show the window

FALSE Hide the window

Notes: The ShowWindow and HideWindow function are more commonly used.

This is a lower-level function. It has no effect on the highlighting or

front-to-back ordering of the windows (with HideWindow, hiding the

frontmost window causes it to be deactivated while activating and

highlighting the window in the next lower plane).

Use this function with caution, and only when ShowWindow and

HideWindow won't suffice.
