XIconifyWindow(3X11)	       XLIB FUNCTIONS		 XIconifyWindow(3X11)



NAME
  XIconifyWindow, XWithdrawWindow, XReconfigureWMWindow - manipulate top-
  level windows

SYNTAX
  Status XIconifyWindow(display, w, screen_number)
	Display *display;
	Window w;
	int screen_number;

  Status XWithdrawWindow(display, w, screen_number)
	Display *display;
	Window w;
	int screen_number;

  Status XReconfigureWMWindow(display, w, screen_number, value_mask, values)
	Display *display;
	Window w;
	int screen_number;
	unsigned int value_mask;
	XWindowChanges *values;

ARGUMENTS

  display   Specifies the connection to the X server.

  screen_number
	    Specifies the appropriate screen number on the host server.

  value_mask
	    Specifies which values are to be set using information in the
	    values structure.  This mask is the bitwise inclusive OR of the
	    valid configure window values bits.

  values    Specifies the XWindowChanges structure.

  w	    Specifies the window.

DESCRIPTION
  The XIconifyWindow function sends a WM_CHANGE_STATE ClientMessage event
  with a format of 32 and a first data element of IconicState (as described
  in section 4.1.4 of the Inter-Client Communication Conventions Manual) and
  a window of w to the root window of the specified screen with an event mask
  set to SubstructureNotifyMask| SubstructureRedirectMask.  Window managers
  may elect to receive this message and if the window is in its normal state,
  may treat it as a request to change the window's state from normal to
  iconic.  If the WM_CHANGE_STATE property cannot be interned, XIconifyWindow
  does not send a message and returns a zero status.  It returns a nonzero
  status if the client message is sent successfully; otherwise, it returns a
  zero status.

  The XWithdrawWindow function unmaps the specified window and sends a syn-
  thetic UnmapNotify event to the root window of the specified screen.
  Window managers may elect to receive this message and may treat it as a
  request to change the window's state to withdrawn.  When a window is in the
  withdrawn state, neither its normal nor its iconic representations is visi-
  ble.	It returns a nonzero status if the UnmapNotify event is successfully
  sent; otherwise, it returns a zero status.

  XWithdrawWindow can generate a BadWindow error.

  The XReconfigureWMWindow function issues a ConfigureWindow request on the
  specified top-level window.  If the stacking mode is changed and the
  request fails with a BadMatch error, the error is trapped by Xlib and a
  synthetic ConfigureRequestEvent containing the same configuration parame-
  ters is sent to the root of the specified window.  Window managers may
  elect to receive this event and treat it as a request to reconfigure the
  indicated window.  It returns a nonzero status if the request or event is
  successfully sent; otherwise, it returns a zero status.

  XReconfigureWMWindow can generate BadValue and BadWindow errors.

DIAGNOSTICS

  BadValue  Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted by
	    the request.  Unless a specific range is specified for an argu-
	    ment, the full range defined by the argument's type is accepted.
	    Any argument defined as a set of alternatives can generate this
	    error.

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