| WindowInfo(win,6) seems to always return false.
Once I create a window, regardless if the window is visible or hidden, it always seems to return false.
Could be programmer error or misuse, but if I debug and do like
print(tostring(WindowInfo(win,6)))
it always seems to evaluate to false and in logical if/then constructs.
I'm using MUSH 4.84. |

| Ok thnx. I will play around with this.
I just wanted to programmatically determine of the miniwindow was displayed or not.
So it seems I would do a logical test like the following?
if (WindowInfo(win,5)) then
print("window is displayed")
else
print("window is not displayed")
end

| | As Fiendish said, WindowInfo(win,5) gives you whether or not you want it shown. Under certain circumstances (especially using automatic positioning) it might not be shown even if you wanted it shown. |
