How do I know wich window is active ?

Hello David,

I'm beginning to wonder if my posts mysteriously disappears or if I'm really getting old after all ;-)

CF_systemGetCurrentLocation

You said before that it's obsolete because you've found some other way of keeping track of windows (internally).
But for me, and a bunch of others I'd assume, it's a really good function.
I really need some way of knowing wich window is active, sure I could probably track menu selections or something like that but it's not really a good solution.

I hope this one (or something similar) will be reinstated.

Many thanks,

/M

This was never removed, should still work...

It's still in there but it doesn't return anything.
(unless I'm doing something wrong)

When I asked about it (perhaps that post is in the CF-SDK forums) last time, you said it wasn't used anymore...

Found it:

I will look, but I believe I have depracted this function... This was used in previous versions to determine which screen was loaded for displaying model dialogs, but this is now handled automatically...
