Disabling or closing stacks..

Post by tasdvl9 » Thu Nov 20, 2014 9:34 pm

Hello,

I'm implementing a timer which will increment when my application is inactive. If the mouse is not being moved or if the app is not processing any data
the user will need to log back in.

Is there a way to check which stacks are open and either close them or disable them before I have the user log back in?
Once the user logs back in those stacks would become active again.

Thanks!

Klaus

Hi tasdvl9,

not sure if you can disable a STACK, but you can get a list of all open stacks with:
...
put the openstacks into tStackList
...
Then do a repeat loop through this list and just close the stacks.


Best

Klaus

From the list Klaus indicated, you can also just "hide" and "show" them.
