Activates and displays a window. If the window is minimized or maximized, the system restores it to its original size and position. An application should specify this flag when displaying the window for the first time.

Activates the window and displays it as a maximized window.

SW_SHOWNOACTIVATE =

Maximizes the specified window. – there seems to be no distinct SW_MAXIMIZE (but there is a distinct SW_MINIMIZE), just the same as SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED some references define SW_MAXIMIZE as 11, which seems to just be wrong; that is correctly SW_FORCEMINIMIZE

#capture_to_bmp_blob(options = {}) ⇒ Object

captures this window to a bitmap image (a screenshot). Returns the bitmap as represented by a blob (a string) of bitmap data, including the BITMAPFILEHEADER, BITMAPINFOHEADER, and data. This can be written directly to a file (though if you want that, #capture_to_bmp_file is probably what you want), or passed to ImageMagick, or whatever you like.

takes an options hash. see the documentation on #capture_to_bmp_structs for what options are accepted.

#capture_to_bmp_file(filename, options = {}) ⇒ Object

captures this window to a bitmap image (a screenshot). stores the bitmap to a filename specified in the first argument.

    file.write(capture_to_bmp_blob(options))
  end
end

#capture_to_bmp_structs(options = {}) ⇒ Object

Creates a bitmap image of this window (a screenshot). Returns the bitmap as represented by three FFI objects: a BITMAPFILEHEADER, a BITMAPINFOHEADER, and a pointer to actual bitmap data. See also #capture_to_bmp_blob and #capture_to_bmp_file - probably more useful to the user than this method.

takes an options hash:

  • :dc => what device context to use

    :client - captures the client area, which excludes window trimmings like title bar, resize bars, etc.
    :window (default) - capturse the window area, including window trimmings.
    
  • :set_foreground => whether to try to set this to be the foreground

    true - calls to #set_foreground
    false - doesn't call to any functions to set this to be the foreground
    :really (default) - calls to #really_set_foreground. this is the default because really being 
      in the foreground is rather important when taking a screenshot.

#child_button(button_text) ⇒ Object

#child_control_with_preceding_label(preceding_label_text, options = {}) ⇒ Object

Finds a child of this window which follows a label with the given text.

#child_of?(parent) ⇒ Boolean

tests whether a window is a child window or descendant window of a specified parent window. A child window is the direct descendant of a specified parent window if that parent window is in the chain of parent windows; the chain of parent windows leads from the original overlapped or pop-up window to the child window.

#click_child_button_try_for!(button_text, time, options = {}) ⇒ Object

Give the name of a button, or a Regexp to match it (see #child_button). keeps clicking the button until the button no longer exists, or until the given block is true (ie, not false or nil) Options:

  • :interval is the length of time in seconds between each attempt (default 0.05)

  • :set_foreground is whether the window should be activated first, since button-clicking is much more likely to fail if the window isn’t focused (default true)

  • :exception is the exception class or instance that will be raised if we can’t click the button (default nil, no exception is raised, the return value indicates success/failure)

Raises ArgumentError if invalid options are given. Raises a WinWindow::NotExistsError if the button doesn’t exist, or if this window doesn’t exist, or a WinWindow::SystemError if a System Error occurs (from #each_child)

#client_rectObject

Returns a Rect struct with members left, top, right, and bottom indicating the coordinates of a window’s client area. The client coordinates specify the upper-left and lower-right corners of the client area. Because client coordinates are relative to the upper-left corner of a window’s client area, the coordinates of the upper-left corner are (0,0).

#destroy!Object

destroy! destroys the window. #destroy! sends WM_DESTROY and WM_NCDESTROY messages to the window to deactivate it and remove the keyboard focus from it. #destroy! also destroys the window’s menu, flushes the thread message queue, destroys timers, removes clipboard ownership, and breaks the clipboard viewer chain (if the window is at the top of the viewer chain). If the specified window is a parent or owner window, #destroy! automatically destroys the associated child or owned windows when it destroys the parent or owner window. #destroy! first destroys child or owned windows, and then it destroys the parent or owner window. #destroy! also destroys modeless dialog boxes.
