Window under cursor


Message 1 in thread

Hi, list.

Is it possible to get at a window under the cursor, even if that window is not 
part of my QApplication? What I'd like to do is allow the user to click on 
any window and have my Qt application be informed of the WM_CLASS of the 
selected window.

Thanks,
Tro

Thanks for the pointer. I don't want to include any non-standard-Qt headers in 
my project, though. As soon as I get my debugging issues resolved, I'll try 
to replicate that functionality with plain Qt.

Thanks,
Tro
