The _WINDOWHASFOCUS function returns true (-1) if the current program's window has focus. Windows-only.
Syntax
- hasFocus%% = _WINDOWHASFOCUS
Description
- The function returns true (-1) if the current program is the topmost window on the user's desktop and has focus. If the current program is running behind another window, the function returns false (0).
- Not available in Linux or macOS.

Examples
Example: Detecting if the current program has focus. Windows-only.
DO IF _WINDOWHASFOCUS THEN COLOR 15, 6 CLS PRINT "*** Hi there! ***" ELSE COLOR 0, 7 CLS PRINT "(ain't nobody looking...)" END IF _DISPLAY _LIMIT 30 LOOP
