Description

These functions are utility functions providing some additional features to libwcnk users.

Functions

wnck_gtk_window_set_dock_type ()

void
wnck_gtk_window_set_dock_type (GtkWindow *window);

wnck_gtk_window_set_dock_type has been deprecated since version 2.20 and should not be used in newly-written code.

Use gdk_window_set_type_hint() instead.

Sets the semantic type of window to WNCK_WINDOW_DOCK.

Parameters

window

a GtkWindow.

wnck_set_client_type ()

void
wnck_set_client_type (WnckClientType ewmh_sourceindication_client_type);

Sets the role of the libwnck user.

The default role is WNCK_CLIENT_TYPE_APPLICATION. Therefore, for applications providing some window management features, like pagers or tasklists, it is important to set the role to WNCK_CLIENT_TYPE_PAGER for libwnck to properly work.

Parameters

ewmh_sourceindication_client_type

a role for the client.

Since: 2.14

enum WnckClientType
