where ActivateScreen(); or i am a blind man ?:)
« on: December 29, 2004, 04:00:42 AM »
For intuition window we have WindowToFront(window) and ActivateWindow(window), but for screens (as i found, or i am just a blind man) only ScreenToFront. Intuition do not have ActivateScreen() ? :) If not, how i can active screen safely ?

I would say "ActiveScreen" is allways "ActiveWindow->WScreen", so no much sense in setting ActiveScreen by hand.
1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

There is no such thing as active screen. Only windows can be active/inactive.

Screens have only concept of frontmost.
