Suspends the WIL program execution until a specified window has been closed.
WinWaitClose (partial-winname [, timeout] )
(s) partial-winname: either an initial portion of, or an entire window name. WinWaitClose suspends execution until all matching windows have been closed.
(i) timeout: [optional] number of seconds to wait for the targeted window to be closed (maximum = 86400). Specify 0 to have the function return immediately. Specify -1 for no timeout (wait forever). The default is -1.
(i) @TRUE if at least one window was found to wait for; @FALSE if no windows were found.
Use this function to suspend the WIL program's execution until the user has finished using a given window and has manually closed it.
This function works only with top-level (parent) application windows.
If the window doesn’t exist, the function will return immediately and return the value @FALSE. If the window exists, the function will wait for it close or until the timeout period has elapsed, whichever comes first, and then return the value @TRUE.
Note: This function has a built-in ½ second time delay before returning after no longer finding the targeted window. There is no built-in delay if the function never finds the window. The delay time can be modified by the function
