O.P. How to detect fullscreen application?
Hello!

WLM by itself has compatibility to detect fullscreen application. Can we use that feature in our scripts?
Or is there another way detect it?

So far I could only find Detect Full Screen application topic, I've tried proposed code but it fails: when WMP is in fullscreen, it fails at GetWindowRect check, on PotPlayer it fails at IsIconic.

The code:
js code:
// Check if full screen app is running
function IsFullScreenAppRunning ()
{
  var hWnd = Interop.Call('user32', 'GetForegroundWindow');

  if(!hWnd)
  {
    Debug.Trace(1);
    return false;
  }

  if(!Interop.Call('user32', 'IsWindowVisible', hWnd) || Interop.Call('user32', 'IsIconic', hWnd) || !Interop.Call('user32', 'IsZoomed', hWnd))
  {
    Debug.Trace(2 + " | " + Interop.Call('user32', 'IsWindowVisible', hWnd) + " | " +Interop.Call('user32', 'IsIconic', hWnd) + " | " +Interop.Call('user32', 'IsZoomed', hWnd));
    return false;
  }

  var rc;
 
  if(!Interop.Call('user32', 'GetWindowRect', hWnd, rc))
  {
    Debug.Trace(3);
    return false;
  }
  Debug.Trace(4 + " | " + rc.right + " | " + rc.left + " | " + Interop.Call('user32', 'GetSystemMetrics', SM_CXSCREEN));
  return (rc.right - rc.left  >= Interop.Call('user32', 'GetSystemMetrics', SM_CXSCREEN) &&  rc.bottom - rc.top >= Interop.Call('user32', 'GetSystemMetrics', SM_CYSCREEN));
}

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.
