XUnmapWindow(3) XLIB FUNCTIONS XUnmapWindow(3)

NAME


XUnmapWindow, XUnmapSubwindows - unmap windows

SYNTAX


int XUnmapWindow(Display *display, Window w);

int XUnmapSubwindows(Display *display, Window w);

ARGUMENTS


display Specifies the connection to the X server.

w Specifies the window.

DESCRIPTION


The XUnmapWindow function unmaps the specified window and causes the
X server to generate an UnmapNotify event. If the specified window
is already unmapped, XUnmapWindow has no effect. Normal exposure
processing on formerly obscured windows is performed. Any child
window will no longer be visible until another map call is made on
the parent. In other words, the subwindows are still mapped but are
not visible until the parent is mapped. Unmapping a window will
generate Expose events on windows that were formerly obscured by it.

XUnmapWindow can generate a BadWindow error.

The XUnmapSubwindows function unmaps all subwindows for the specified
window in bottom-to-top stacking order. It causes the X server to
generate an UnmapNotify event on each subwindow and Expose events on
formerly obscured windows. Using this function is much more
efficient than unmapping multiple windows one at a time because the
server needs to perform much of the work only once, for all of the
windows, rather than for each window.

XUnmapSubwindows can generate a BadWindow error.

DIAGNOSTICS


BadWindow A value for a Window argument does not name a defined
Window.
