Description

Type	Name	Description	Notes
Color	background	Returns the color of this window. This color is used when the window must be erased. Changes the background color of this window.
Bitmap	backgroundBitmap	Returns the background bitmap currently set in the view. Sets the background bitmap of this view. The bitmap provided (if it is not null) is locked. The previous bitmap, if there was one, is unlocked. If the bitmap provided is null, the background color is set. Windows 95 can only handle bitmaps with a size of 8x8.
IlvRect	boundingBox	Returns the geometry of the window, that is, its position and size relative to the parent view.
Void	ensurePointVisible(IlvPoint position)	Void ensurePointVisible(IlvPoint position)
Void	ensureRectVisible(IlvRect area)	These methods make sure that the given point position, or the full rectangle area, is visible to the user. This is meaningful only if scrolled is true, that is, if this object is scrolled in a system scrolling view. The parent scrolling view takes care of its subwindow displacement to guarantee the visibility of position or area. If the area argument represents a bigger rectangle than the scrolling window is able to display, then the subwindow is centered in the scrolling region on the center of area. That is, the center of area is moved to the center of the scrolling window, but the boundaries of area are not visible.
IlvRect	globalBBox	Returns the geometry of this window relative to the upper left corner of the whole screen.
Boolean	grab	Returns true if this view has the display grab.
UInt	height	Returns the height of the view.
Void	lower()	Puts this view object below any other view on the screen. This is meaningful only if this view is a top-window.
Void	move(IlvPoint position)	Moves the upper left corner of the window to the position given by the position parameter in the parent window of this object.
Void	raise()	Puts this view object on top of any other view on the screen. This is meaningful only if this view is a top-window.
Void	resize(UInt width, UInt height)	Changes the window size to the new dimensions width and height.
Boolean	scrolled	Returns true if this window is the subwindow of a system scrolling window. Scrolling windows own a single subwindow, from which they display only a rectangular region. This allows you to manipulate bigger windows than your screen can display, and navigate within these by means of a smaller rectangular area.
Boolean	sensitive	Returns the current behavior of this window concerning the event that may occur within its frame. If false is returned, no keyboard or pointing device events are received by this object. The window is said to be sensitive if it can receive these events and sensitive returns true. Changes the sensitivity of the window. It becomes sensitive if sensitive is set to true. If sensitive is set to false, none of the input events can reach the window.
IlvRect	sizeVisible	Returns the visible rectangle of this window. This return value is meaningful only if this object is the subwindow of a scrolling window (that is, it has a hidden area because of the view hierarchy). If this is not the case, sizeVisible has the same meaning as boundingBox.
UInt	width	Returns the width of the view.
Int	x	Returns the left position of the view.
Int	y	Returns the top position of the view.
