Synopsis

#include "silver.h"

The scriptwin_open function opens a script window, which is an alternative SilverScreen command target.

Parameters

swi is a pointer to a script window initialization data structure that has been filled in.

Return Value

scriptwin_open returns a script window handle if successful, or 0 otherwise. The script window handle is used to close, resize, or process commands.

Remarks

Script windows are exclusive to the SilverPlus and SilverEngine platforms.

A script window is typically used to display a SilverScreen drawing in a secondary window, such as a Dialog. A script window is opened, commands are executed, and when the dialog closes the script window is closed.
