UI Actions › Objects › Running App reference
This object represents a currently running application. The representation is a static snapshot. This is important. For example, when an action returns a app, its “Is Hidden?” property will not change even when the original app becomes hidden.
It is returned by Get App.
Its properties are:
| Property | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Name | Text | Its localized name (e.g., “Preview” (en) or “Vorschau” (de)) |
| Main Window | Window | |
| Windows | List of Windows | |
| Window | The window that is currently active and receiving user input, i.e. the one that will respond to keyboard and mouse/trackpad input. | |
| Is Frontmost? | YES/NO) | |
| Is Hidden? | YES/NO) |
The window-related properties might be empty if the app doesn’t have any open windows.
