Subwindows with ncurses

2020-07-23 03:35发布

问题:

I'm trying to put a smaller window within the main window using the ncurses library. I'm wanting it to look sort of like the final fantasy battle screen where your main map and character will be on the main window and a subwindow will be at the bottom showing your options for battle.

I'm attempting to do it using "WINDOW * subWin = newwin(nlines, ncols, y0, x0);" but when I run it I don't see any secondary window or subwindow. Would anyone know if what I'm using is incorrect or why I'm not able to actually see the subwindow?

Thanks!

Here is an example showing the main window with a subwindow:

#include <curses.h>

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
  initscr();

  printw("Main window");

  WINDOW* subwindow = newwin(10,20,5,15);

  refresh();

  box(subwindow,0,0);
  mvwprintw(subwindow, 1, 1, "subwindow");


  refresh();
  wrefresh(subwindow);

  getch();
  delwin(subwindow);

  endwin();
  return 0;
}
