IAppVisibility interface (shobjidl_core.h)
Provides functionality to determine whether the display is showing Universal Windows Platform apps.
Inheritance
The IAppVisibility interface inherits from the IUnknown interface. IAppVisibility also has these types of members:
Methods
The IAppVisibility interface has these methods.
| IAppVisibility::Advise Registers an advise sink object to receive notification of changes to the display. |
| IAppVisibility::GetAppVisibilityOnMonitor Queries the current mode of the specified monitor. |
| IAppVisibility::IsLauncherVisible Gets a value that indicates whether the Start screen is displayed. |
| IAppVisibility::Unadvise Cancels a connection that was previously established by using Advise. |
Remarks
Use the IAppVisibility interface to determine when a display is showing Universal Windows Platform apps. This is useful for accessibility tools and other applications.
Use the IsLauncherVisible method to determine when the Start screen is visible.
Don't implement the IAppVisibility interface. Instead, call the CoCreateInstance function with CLSID_AppVisibility.
