QueryObject object%, query_id%  ; returns Int

Works in: BlitzPlus

In the original it gives the Windows handle behind a gadget (query 1 is the HWND, 2 the HWND of the client area, 3 the HFONT), so it can be used with the Windows API.

Graphics 320, 240, 32, 2
win = CreateWindow("Query", 20, 20, 240, 100, Desktop(), 3)
SetGadgetText win, "Handle " + QueryObject(win, 1)
Repeat
Until WaitEvent() = $803

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
object	Int	required	A window, gadget or font.
query_id	Int	required

Differences and known gaps:

• All gadgets are drawn inside the one window of the program, so queries 1 and 2 give the handle of that window (an HWND on Windows) for every gadget. Fonts (3) have no handle of the operating system and give 0, and so does anything that is not a gadget.
