[fpc-pascal]How to set focus to graph window?

[Thomas Schatzl]

Hi,

  although others have already pointed out a few solutions, here're my two
cents...

Graph (Win32 version) publishes the variable "mainwindow" in its interface
section. So why not use it?

E.g.

uses
  windows;

SetForegroundWindow(mainwindow); // bring window into foreground
SetFocus(mainwindow); // set focus

Probably worth trying... after a quick look at the sources I think that this
variable holds the handle to the graph window, doesn't it? Florian?
