15.13.2 Window Objects

Window objects have the following methods, among others:

open()
Override this method to open a window. Store the MacOS window-id in self.wid and call self.do_postopen to register the window with the parent application.

close()
Override this method to do any special processing on window close. Call self.do_postclose to cleanup the parent state.

do_postresize(width, height, macoswindowid)
Called after the window is resized. Override if more needs to be done than calling InvalRect.

do_contentclick(local, modifiers, event)
The user clicked in the content part of a window. The arguments are the coordinates (window-relative), the key modifiers and the raw event.

do_update(macoswindowid, event)
An update event for the window was received. Redraw the window.

do_activate(activate, event)
The window was activated (activate==1) or deactivated (activate==0). Handle things like focus highlighting, etc.
