```
A Window object is a top-level window with no borders and no menubar. The default layout for a window is BorderLayout. Note: the location and size of top-level windows (including Windows, Frames, and Dialogs) are under the control of the window management system. Calls to setLocation, setSize, and setBounds are requests (not directives) which are forwarded to the window management system. In some cases the window management system may ignore such requests, or modify the requested geometry in order to place and size the Window appropriately. Due to the asynchronous nature of native event handling, the results returned by getBounds, getLocation, getLocationOnScreen, and getSize might not reflect the actual geometry of the Window on screen until the last request has been processed. During the processing of subsequent requests these values might change accordingly while the window management system fulfills the requests.
An application may set the size and location of an invisible Window arbitrarily, but the window management system may subsequently change its size and/or location if and when the Window is made visible. One or more ComponentEvents will be generated to indicate the new geometry.
Windows are capable of generating the following WindowEvents: WindowOpened, WindowClosed, WindowGainedFocus, WindowLostFocus.

- Method Detail
  - pack
```
public void pack()
```
    Causes this Window to be sized to fit the preferred size and layouts of its subcomponents. If the window and/or its owner are not yet displayable, both are made displayable before calculating the preferred size. The Window will be validated after the preferredSize is calculated.
    
    See Also:
    Component.isDisplayable()
  - show
```
public void show()
```
    Makes the Window visible. If the Window and/or its owner are not yet displayable, both are made displayable. The Window will be validated prior to being made visible. If the Window is already visible, this will bring the Window to the front.
    
    See Also:
    Component.isDisplayable(), toFront(), Component.setVisible(boolean)
  - dispose
```
public void dispose()
```
    Releases all of the native screen resources used by this Window, its subcomponents, and all of its owned children. That is, the resources for these Components will be destroyed, any memory they consume will be returned to the OS, and they will be marked as undisplayable.
    The Window and its subcomponents can be made displayable again by rebuilding the native resources with a subsequent call to pack or show. The states of the recreated Window and its subcomponents will be identical to the states of these objects at the point where the Window was disposed (not accounting for additional modifications between those actions).
    Note: When the last displayable window within the Java virtual machine (VM) is disposed of, the VM may terminate. See AWT Threading Issues for more information.
    
    See Also:
    Component.isDisplayable(), pack(), show()
  - toFront
```
public void toFront()
```
    If this Window is visible, brings this Window to the front and may make it the focused Window.
    Places this Window at the top of the stacking order and shows it in front of any other Windows in this VM. No action will take place if this Window is not visible. Some platforms do not allow Windows which own other Windows to appear on top of those owned Windows. Some platforms may not permit this VM to place its Windows above windows of native applications, or Windows of other VMs. This permission may depend on whether a Window in this VM is already focused. Every attempt will be made to move this Window as high as possible in the stacking order; however, developers should not assume that this method will move this Window above all other windows in every situation.
    Because of variations in native windowing systems, no guarantees about changes to the focused and active Windows can be made. Developers must never assume that this Window is the focused or active Window until this Window receives a WINDOW_GAINED_FOCUS or WINDOW_ACTIVATED event. On platforms where the top-most window is the focused window, this method will probably focus this Window, if it is not already focused. On platforms where the stacking order does not typically affect the focused window, this method will probably leave the focused and active Windows unchanged.
    If this method causes this Window to be focused, and this Window is a Frame it will also become activated. If this Window is focused, but it is not a Frame then the first Frame that is an owner of this Window will be activated.
    
    See Also:
    toBack()
  - toBack
```
public void toBack()
```
    If this Window is visible, sends this Window to the back and may cause it to lose focus or activation if it is the focused or active Window.
    Places this Window at the bottom of the stacking order and shows it behind any other Windows in this VM. No action will take place is this Window is not visible. Some platforms do not allow Windows which are owned by other Windows to appear below their owners. Every attempt will be made to move this Window as low as possible in the stacking order; however, developers should not assume that this method will move this Window below all other windows in every situation.
    Because of variations in native windowing systems, no guarantees about changes to the focused and active Windows can be made. Developers must never assume that this Window is no longer the focused or active Window until this Window receives a WINDOW_LOST_FOCUS or WINDOW_DEACTIVATED event. On platforms where the top-most window is the focused window, this method will probably cause this Window to lose focus. In that case, the next highest, focusable Window in this VM will receive focus. On platforms where the stacking order does not typically affect the focused window, this method will probably leave the focused and active Windows unchanged.

  - getToolkit
```
public Toolkit getToolkit()
```
    Returns the toolkit of this frame.
    
    Overrides:
    
    getToolkit in class Component
    
    Returns:
    the toolkit of this window.
    See Also:
    Toolkit, Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit(), Component.getToolkit()
  - getWarningString
```
public final String getWarningString()
```
    Gets the warning string that is displayed with this window. If this window is insecure, the warning string is displayed somewhere in the visible area of the window. A window is insecure if there is a security manager, and the security manager's checkTopLevelWindow method returns false when this window is passed to it as an argument.
    If the window is secure, then getWarningString returns null. If the window is insecure, this method checks for the system property awt.appletWarning and returns the string value of that property.
    
    Returns:
    the warning string for this window.
    See Also:
    SecurityManager.checkTopLevelWindow(java.lang.Object)
  - getLocale

```
public Component getFocusOwner()
```
    Returns the child Component of this Window that has focus if this Window is focused; returns null otherwise.
    
    Returns:

    getMostRecentFocusOwner(), isFocused()
  - getMostRecentFocusOwner
```
public Component getMostRecentFocusOwner()
```
    Returns the child Component of this Window that will receive the focus when this Window is focused. If this Window is currently focused, this method returns the same Component as getFocusOwner(). If this Window is not focused, then the child Component that most recently requested focus will be returned. If no child Component has ever requested focus, and this is a focusable Window, then this Window's initial focusable Component is returned. If no child Component has ever requested focus, and this is a non-focusable Window, null is returned.
    
    Returns:
    the child Component that will receive focus when this Window is focused
    Since:
    
    1.4
    
    See Also:
    getFocusOwner(), isFocused(), isFocusableWindow()
  - isActive
```
public boolean isActive()
```
    Returns whether this Window is active. Only a Frame may be active. The native windowing system may denote the active Window or its children with special decorations, such as a highlighted title bar. The active Window is always either the focused Window, or the first Frame that is an owner of the focused Window.
    
    Returns:
    whether this is the active Window.
    Since:
    
    1.4
    
    See Also:
    isFocused()
  - isFocused
```
public boolean isFocused()
```
    Returns whether this Window is focused. If there exists a focus owner, the focused Window is the Window that is, or contains, that focus owner. If there is no focus owner, then no Window is focused.
    If the focused Window is a Frame it is also the active Window. Otherwise, the active Window is the first Frame that is an owner of the focused Window.
    
    Returns:
    whether this is the focused Window.
    Since:
    
    1.4
  - getFocusTraversalKeys
```
public Set getFocusTraversalKeys(int id)
```
    Gets a focus traversal key for this Window. (See setFocusTraversalKeys for a full description of each key.)
    If the traversal key has not been explicitly set for this Window, then this Window's parent's traversal key is returned. If the traversal key has not been explicitly set for any of this Window's ancestors, then the current KeyboardFocusManager's default traversal key is returned.
    
    Overrides:
    
    getFocusTraversalKeys in class Container
    
    Parameters:
    id - one of KeyboardFocusManager.FORWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, KeyboardFocusManager.BACKWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, KeyboardFocusManager.UP_CYCLE_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, or KeyboardFocusManager.DOWN_CYCLE_TRAVERSAL_KEYS
    
    Returns:
    the AWTKeyStroke for the specified key
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if id is not one of KeyboardFocusManager.FORWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, KeyboardFocusManager.BACKWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, KeyboardFocusManager.UP_CYCLE_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, or KeyboardFocusManager.DOWN_CYCLE_TRAVERSAL_KEYS

  - setFocusCycleRoot
```
public final void setFocusCycleRoot(boolean focusCycleRoot)
```
    Does nothing because Windows must always be roots of a focus traversal cycle. The passed-in value is ignored.
    
    Overrides:
    
    setFocusCycleRoot in class Container
    
    Parameters:
    focusCycleRoot - this value is ignored

    isFocusCycleRoot(), Container.setFocusTraversalPolicy(java.awt.FocusTraversalPolicy), Container.getFocusTraversalPolicy()
  - isFocusCycleRoot
```
public final boolean isFocusCycleRoot()
```
    Always returns true because all Windows must be roots of a focus traversal cycle.
    
    Overrides:
    
    isFocusCycleRoot in class Container
    
    Returns:
    true

    Always returns null because Windows have no ancestors; they represent the top of the Component hierarchy.
    
    Overrides:
    
    getFocusCycleRootAncestor in class Component
    
    Returns:
    null
    Since:
    
    1.4
    
    See Also:
    Container.isFocusCycleRoot()
  - isFocusableWindow
```
public final boolean isFocusableWindow()
```
    Returns whether this Window can become the focused Window, that is, whether this Window or any of its subcomponents can become the focus owner. For a Frame to be focusable, its focusable Window state must be set to true. For a Window which is not a Frame to be focusable, its focusable Window state must be set to true, its nearest owning Frame must be showing on the screen, and it must contain at least one Component in its focus traversal cycle. If any of these conditions is not met, then neither this Window nor any of its subcomponents can become the focus owner.
    
    Returns:
    true if this Window can be the focused Window; false otherwise
    Since:
    
    1.4
    
    See Also:
    getFocusableWindowState(), setFocusableWindowState(boolean), isShowing(), Component.isFocusable()
  - getFocusableWindowState
```
public boolean getFocusableWindowState()
```
    Returns whether this Window can become the focused Window if it meets the other requirements outlined in isFocusableWindow. If this method returns false, then isFocusableWindow will return false as well. If this method returns true, then isFocusableWindow may return true or false depending upon the other requirements which must be met in order for a Window to be focusable.
    By default, all Windows have a focusable Window state of true.
    
    Returns:
    whether this Window can be the focused Window
    Since:
    
    1.4
    
    See Also:
    isFocusableWindow(), setFocusableWindowState(boolean), isShowing(), Component.setFocusable(boolean)
  - setFocusableWindowState
```
public void setFocusableWindowState(boolean focusableWindowState)
```
    Sets whether this Window can become the focused Window if it meets the other requirements outlined in isFocusableWindow. If this Window's focusable Window state is set to false, then isFocusableWindow will return false. If this Window's focusable Window state is set to true, then isFocusableWindow may return true or false depending upon the other requirements which must be met in order for a Window to be focusable.
    Setting a Window's focusability state to false is the standard mechanism for an application to identify to the AWT a Window which will be used as a floating palette or toolbar, and thus should be a non-focusable Window.
    
    Parameters:
    focusableWindowState - whether this Window can be the focused Window
    Since:
    
    1.4
    
    See Also:

public boolean isShowing()
```
    Checks if this Window is showing on screen.
    
    Overrides:
    
    isShowing in class Component
    
    Returns:
    true if the component is showing, false otherwise
    See Also:

  - getGraphicsConfiguration
```
public GraphicsConfiguration getGraphicsConfiguration()
```
    This method returns the GraphicsConfiguration used by this Window.
    
    Overrides:
    
    getGraphicsConfiguration in class Component
    
    Returns:
    the GraphicsConfiguration used by this Component or null
