ACTIVE-WINDOW System Handle

SYNTAX
attribute
An attribute of the ACTIVE-WINDOW. The ACTIVE-WINDOW handle has all the attributes of a window widget.
NOTES
- In a character interface, the ACTIVE-WINDOW, CURRENT-WINDOW, and DEFAULT-WINDOW handles return the handle of the static window for the current Progress session.
- The initial value of the ACTIVE-WINDOW handle is the CURRENT-WINDOW handle.
- The ACTIVE-WINDOW handle monitors the active window in the Progress session only. It does not monitor the active window for the window system. Accessing a non-Progress window does not affect the state of the ACTIVE-WINDOW handle.
- You can enable or disable the current window by changing ACTIVE-WINDOW:SENSITIVE.
- You can set the menu bar for the active window by assigning the handle of a menu bar to ACTIVE-WINDOW:MENUBAR.
