Scripting_function



Panel
titleDescription

Performs a window swap. This means that one window is closed, and another is opened and takes its place - assuming its size, floating state, and maximization state. This gives a seamless transition - one window seems to simply turn into another.

This function works like system.nav.swapTo except that you can specify the source and destination for the swap


Panel
titleClient Permission Restrictions

This scripting function has no Client Permission restrictions.

# This code would swap from window named WindowA to a window named WindowB.
# It also looks at the two calendar popup controls and passes the two selected
