Description

:isUICueActive() checks whether display indicators (visual cues) of a certain type are currently being displayed or not. Starting with the Windows 2000 operating system, visual cues are displayed only upon demand. The focus rectangle of an Xbase Part is displayed only when working with the keyboard. Likewise, shortcut characters defined in caption strings are underlined only if needed. The method :isUICueActive() is typically used with owner-drawing to determine how an object's caption must be displayed.
