Generated when a View is shown.

Remarks

An OpenFin View's shown event is only emitted when specific View APIs are called. This event can fire when calling:

  • view.show() or view.showAt() - If a View is previously hidden, a shown event will be fired.

  • view.attach() - If a View is hidden and attached to a new Window, it will be shown and the shown event will be fired.

  • view.create() - A View shown event will be fired. (Internally the attach method is called when calling the create method, which fires the shown event.)

    name: string;
