Parameters
Mode: Video mode to use
Title: Title of the window
WindowStyle: Window style, see sf::Style (Resize | Close by default)
Params: Creation parameters (see default constructor for default values)
void sf::Window::Create ( WindowHandle  Handle,
const WindowSettings Params = WindowSettings() 
)

Create (or recreate) the window from an existing control.

Parameters
Handle: Platform-specific handle of the control
Params: Creation parameters (see default constructor for default values)
void sf::Window::Display ( )

Display the window on screen.
