ShowOwnedPopups function (winuser.h)

  • Article

Shows or hides all pop-up windows owned by the specified window.

Syntax

BOOL ShowOwnedPopups(
  [in] HWND hWnd,
  [in] BOOL fShow
);

Parameters

[in] hWnd

Type: HWND

A handle to the window that owns the pop-up windows to be shown or hidden.

[in] fShow

Type: BOOL

If this parameter is TRUE, all hidden pop-up windows are shown. If this parameter is FALSE, all visible pop-up windows are hidden.

Return value

Type: BOOL

If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.

If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.

Remarks

ShowOwnedPopups shows only windows hidden by a previous call to ShowOwnedPopups. For example, if a pop-up window is hidden by using the ShowWindow function, subsequently calling ShowOwnedPopups with the fShow parameter set to TRUE does not cause the window to be shown.
