DEFAULT-WINDOW system handle

A handle to the static window of the current ABL session. Every ABL session has one static window. This window displays all frames until the CURRENT-WINDOW system handle is set to the handle of another [dynamic] window or unless a displayed frame is explicitly parented to another window. Its message area also displays messages that have no other available display destination. Use the DEFAULT-WINDOW handle to set or examine the attributes of this unnamed session window.

Syntax

DEFAULT-WINDOW [ :attribute ]
attribute
An attribute of the DEFAULT-WINDOW.

Attributes

The DEFAULT-WINDOW handle has all the attributes of a window widget.
