Detailed Description

Base namespace class.

The NET API is an implementation of the NET Window Manager Specification.

This class is the base class for the NETRootInfo and NETWinInfo classes, which are used to retrieve and modify the properties of windows. To keep the namespace relatively clean, all enums are defined here.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ anonymous enum

anonymous enum

Definition at line 340 of file netwm_def.h.

◆ anonymous enum

anonymous enum

Sentinel value to indicate that the client wishes to be visible on all desktops.

Since
3.2

Definition at line 622 of file netwm_def.h.

◆ Action

enum NET::Action

Definition at line 474 of file netwm_def.h.

◆ DesktopLayoutCorner

enum NET::DesktopLayoutCorner

Starting corner for desktop layout.

Definition at line 648 of file netwm_def.h.

◆ Direction

enum NET::Direction

Direction for WMMoveResize.

When a client wants the Window Manager to start a WMMoveResize, it should specify one of:

  • TopLeft
  • Top
  • TopRight
  • Right

Definition at line 425 of file netwm_def.h.

◆ MappingState

enum NET::MappingState

Client window mapping state.

The class automatically watches the mapping state of the client windows, and uses the mapping state to determine how to set/change different properties.

  • Visible indicates the client window is visible to the user.
  • Withdrawn indicates that neither the client window nor its icon is visible.
  • Iconic indicates that the client window is not visible, but its icon is. This can be when the window is minimized or when it's on a different virtual desktop. See also NET::Hidden.

Definition at line 464 of file netwm_def.h.

◆ Orientation

enum NET::Orientation

Orientation.

Definition at line 640 of file netwm_def.h.

WMFrameExtents 
Since

Definition at line 534 of file netwm_def.h.

◆ Property2

enum NET::Property2

Supported properties.

This enum is an extension to NET::Property, because them enum is limited only to 32 bits.

Client window properties and protocols:

  • WM2UserTime
  • WM2StartupId
  • WM2TransientFor mainwindow for the window (WM_TRANSIENT_FOR)
  • WM2GroupLeader group leader (window_group in WM_HINTS)

◆ RequestSource

enum NET::RequestSource

Source of the request.

  • FromApplication the request comes from a normal application
  • FromTool the request comes from pager or similar tool
    Since
    3.2

Definition at line 631 of file netwm_def.h.

◆ Role

enum NET::Role

Application role.

This is used internally to determine how several action should be performed (if at all).

  • Client indicates that the application is a client application.
  • WindowManager indicates that the application is a window manager application.

Definition at line 247 of file netwm_def.h.

◆ State

enum NET::State

Window state.

  • Modal ndicates that this is a modal dialog box. The WM_TRANSIENT_FOR hint MUST be set to indicate which window the dialog is a modal for, or set to the root window if the dialog is a modal for its window group.
  • Sticky indicates that the Window Manager SHOULD keep the window's position fixed on the screen, even when the virtual desktop scrolls. Note that this is different from being kept on all desktops.
  • Max{Vert,Horiz} indicates that the window is {vertically,horizontally} maximized.
  • Max is more convenient than MaxVert | MaxHoriz.
  • Shaded indicates that the window is shaded (rolled-up).
  • SkipTaskbar indicates that a window should not be included on a taskbar.
  • SkipPager indicates that a window should not be included on a pager.
  • Hidden indicates that a window should not be visible on the screen (e.g. when minimised). Only the window manager is allowed to change it.
  • FullScreen indicates that a window should fill the entire screen and have no window decorations.
  • KeepAbove indicates that a window should on top of most windows (but below fullscreen windows).
  • KeepBelow indicates that a window should be below most windows (but above any desktop windows).
  • StaysOnTop is an obsolete name for KeepAbove.
  • DemandsAttention there was an attempt to activate this window, but the window manager prevented this. E.g. taskbar should mark such window specially to bring user's attention to this window. Only the window manager is allowed to change it.

Note that KeepAbove (StaysOnTop) and KeepBelow are meant as user preference and applications should avoid setting these states themselves.

◆ WindowType

enum NET::WindowType

Window type.

  • Unknown indicates that the window did not define a window type.
  • Normal indicates that this is a normal, top-level window. Windows with Unknown window type or WM_TRANSIENT_FOR unset must be taken as this type.
  • Desktop indicates a desktop feature. This can include a single window containing desktop icons with the same dimensions as the screen, allowing the desktop environment to have full control of the desktop, without the need for proxying root window clicks.
  • Dock indicates a dock or panel feature. Typically a window manager would keep such windows on top of all other windows.
  • Toolbar and Menu indicate toolbar and pinnable menu windows, respectively.
  • Dialog indicates that this is a dialog window. If _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE is not set, then windows with WM_TRANSIENT_FOR set must be taken as this type.
  • Override - deprecated, has unclear meaning and is KDE-only.
  • TopMenu indicates a toplevel menu (AKA macmenu). This is a KDE extension to the _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE mechanism.
  • DropdownMenu - dropdown menu (from a menubar typically)
  • PopupMenu - a popup menu (a context menu typically)
  • Tooltip - a tooltip window
  • Notification - a notification window
  • ComboBox - a list window for a combobox
  • DNDIcon - a window that represents the dragged object during DND operation

Note that some window types are typically used only on override-redirect windows (WX11BypassWM flag).

Member Function Documentation

◆ timestampCompare()

static int NET::timestampCompare ( unsigned long  time1,
unsigned long  time2 
)
static

Compares two X timestamps, taking into account wrapping and 64bit architectures.

Return value is like with strcmp(), 0 for equal, -1 for time1 < time2, 1 for time1 > time2.

Since
3.5.3

◆ timestampDiff()

static int NET::timestampDiff ( unsigned long  time1_,
unsigned long  time2_ 
)
static

Returns a difference of two X timestamps, time2 - time1, where time2 must be later than time1, as returned by timestampCompare().

Since
3.5.3

◆ typeMatchesMask()

static bool NET::typeMatchesMask ( WindowType  type,
unsigned long  mask 
)
static

Returns true if the given window type matches the mask given using WindowTypeMask flags.
