- | The WINDOW() function takes one or two parameters and returns information about a window. With one parameter, it refers to the window that that action is operating on in actions like the [Manipulate a Window](action:Manipulate_a_Window). If the action does not refer to a window, then the function refers to the main/focussed/front window. With two parameters, the first parameter specifies which window in the front application to operate on. | + | **The `WINDOW()` function returns the desired coordinate of the specified window**, and can have one or two parameters. \\ |
