Detect when in system menu...

[Scootworks]

i use something like this in one of my addonds. maybe it helps:

local lastSceneName = "empty"
        local marketAnnouncement = "marketAnnouncement"
        local gameMenuInGame = "gameMenuInGame"
 
SCENE_MANAGER:RegisterCallback("SceneStateChanged", function(scene, oldState, newState)
            local sceneName = scene:GetName()
            if sceneName == marketAnnouncement and lastSceneName ~= gameMenuInGame then
                if newState == SCENE_SHOWING or newState == SCENE_SHOWN then
                    SCENE_MANAGER:Hide(sceneName)
                end
            end
            lastSceneName = sceneName
        end)

Thanks for that. I ended up using something a little different:

	if SCENE_MANAGER:IsShowing("gameMenuInGame") == false then
		-- do stuff
	end

Basically this was for ChatWindowManager, to avoid the auto-minimize when opening the system menu to logout always setting your last chat window state to minimize even if you had it maximized before that, when the option to remember the chat state was enabled.
