select-window

Generic Function

Package: common-graphics

Arguments: window &optional recursive-p

Selects window and brings it to the front. recursive-p should be true if select-window is being called from a stream select-window function (that is, recursive-p should be nil when called directly). If window is shrunken it will be expanded. Sets focus if we are in the uppermost frame of window.

See also bring-window-to-front, which does that without selecting the window. If you are running a multi-threaded Common Graphics application, see set-foreground-window as this function (and bring-window-to-front) may not reliably move a window in front of windows that were created by other threads.
