Method
GdkWindowset_override_redirect
Declaration [src]
void
gdk_window_set_override_redirect (
GdkWindow* window,
gboolean override_redirect
)
Description [src]
An override redirect window is not under the control of the window manager. This means it won’t have a titlebar, won’t be minimizable, etc. - it will be entirely under the control of the application. The window manager can’t see the override redirect window at all.
Override redirect should only be used for short-lived temporary
windows, such as popup menus. GtkMenu
uses an override redirect
window in its implementation, for example.
