if you mean which Win32::GUI window is the active one, you can simply track this with the Activate() events. an example:
my $activeWindow;
sub Window1_Activate {
$activeWindow = $Window1;
}
sub Window2_Activate {
$activeWindow = $Window2;
}
sub Window3_Activate {
$activeWindow = $Window3;
}
# and so on...
if you instead mean any window on your screen (and you don't need realtime monitoring -- which will hog your CPU), then I would do it setting up a timer object:
my $checkActive = $Window1->AddTimer(
-name => "checkActive", 10
);
# note: 10 milliseconds means 100 times/second
sub checkActive_Timer {
$activeWindow = Win32::GUI::GetForegroundWindow();
}
hope this helps...

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
