Method

GdkX11X11Screensupports_net_wm_hint

since: 2.2

Declaration [src]

gboolean
gdk_x11_screen_supports_net_wm_hint (
  GdkScreen* screen,
  GdkAtom property
)

Description [src]

This function is specific to the X11 backend of GDK, and indicates whether the window manager supports a certain hint from the Extended Window Manager Hints specification.

When using this function, keep in mind that the window manager can change over time; so you shouldn’t use this function in a way that impacts persistent application state. A common bug is that your application can start up before the window manager does when the user logs in, and before the window manager starts gdk_x11_screen_supports_net_wm_hint() will return FALSE for every property. You can monitor the window_manager_changed signal on GdkScreen to detect a window manager change.

Available since: 2.2

Parameters

property

Type: GdkAtom

A property atom.

Return value

Type: gboolean

TRUE if the window manager supports property.
