@ohos.uiExtensionHost (System API)

Intended only for the UIExtensionComponent that has process isolation requirements, the uiExtensionHost module provides APIs for obtaining the host application window information and information about the component itself.

NOTE

No new function will be added to this module. Related functions will be provided in the uiExtension interface.

The initial APIs of this module are supported since API version 11. Updates will be marked with a superscript to indicate their earliest API version.

The APIs provided by this module are system APIs.

hideNonSecureWindows

hideNonSecureWindows(shouldHide: boolean): Promise&lt;void&gt;

Sets whether to hide insecure windows. > NOTE > > Insecure windows refer to the windows that may block the UIExtensionComponent, such as global floating windows, host subwindows, and dialog box windows created by the host application, excluding the aforementioned types of windows created by system applications. When the UIExtensionComponent is used to present important information, you can hide insecure windows to prevent such information from being obscured. When the UIExtensionComponent is not displayed or is destroyed, you must unhide the insecure windows. By default, the UIExtensionComponent created using the CreateModalUIExtension API hides insecure windows. To cancel this behavior and show insecure windows, apply for the ohos.permission.ALLOW_SHOW_NON_SECURE_WINDOWS permission and call this API to set shouldHide to false.

System capability: SystemCapability.ArkUI.ArkUI.Full

System API: This is a system API and cannot be called by third-party applications.

Parameters

Name Type Mandatory Description
shouldHide boolean Yes Whether to hide insecure windows. The value true means to hide insecure windows, and false means the opposite.

Return value

Type Description
Promise&lt;void&gt; Promise that returns no value.
