Tk_MapWindow(3Tk)Tk_MapWindow(3Tk)NAME
Tk_MapWindow, Tk_UnmapWindow - map or unmap a window
SYNOPSIS
#include <tk.h>
Tk_Window
Tk_MapWindow(tkwin)Tk_UnmapWindow(tkwin)ARGUMENTS
Tk_Window tkwin (in) Token for window.
DESCRIPTION
These procedures may be used to map and unmap windows managed by Tk.
Tk_MapWindow maps the window given by tkwin, and also creates an X window
corresponding to tkwin if it doesn't already exist. See the
Tk_CreateMainWindow manual entry for information on deferred window
creation. Tk_UnmapWindow unmaps tkwin's window from the screen.
If tkwin is a child window (i.e. Tk_CreateChildWindow was used to create
it), then event handlers interested in map and unmap events are invoked
immediately. If tkwin isn't an internal window, then the event handlers
will be invoked later, after X has seen the request and returned an event
for it.
These procedures should be used in place of the X procedures XMapWindow
and XUnmapWindow, since they update Tk's local data structure for tkwin.
Applications using Tk should not invoke XMapWindow and XUnmapWindow
directly.
