Interface ShownEvent

Generated when a View is shown.

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.)

interface ShownEvent {
    name: string;
    target: Identity;
    topic: "view";
    type: "shown";
    uuid: string;
}
