ILEMAKER FUNCTIONS REFERENCE 218
Get(WindowMode)
Purpose
Returns a number representing the mode the FileMaker product is in when the function is evaluated.
Format
Get(WindowMode)
Parameters
None
Data type returned
number
Originated in
FileMaker Pro 6.0 or earlier
Description
Returns:
• 0 for Browse mode
• 1 for Find mode
• 2 for Preview mode
• 3 if printing is in progress
• 4 (FileMaker Pro Advanced) if evaluating the function from the Data Viewer and the current
window is in Layout mode
If a script using this function runs while the file is in Layout mode, FileMaker Pro switches to Browse
mode and returns 0. If there are multiple windows open in the current database file, each window
can have its own window mode value, but results are returned for only the foreground window.
Note For information on how functions evaluate differently on the host versus the client, search the
FileMaker Knowledge Base available at
http://help.filemaker.com.
Examples
Returns 2 if the file is in Preview mode when the function is evaluated.
