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.
