xlib: how to create a window without title bar

mirsoft · 01-18-2008, 12:05 AM

I need to create a window without the default title bar under xlib, who can tell me some ideas to complete this. It will be much more helpful to give me the source codes.
Thanks & Best Regards.

I believe the title is added by the window manager, so I assume you would need to speak to it and maybe change the window attributes.

Hi -

DMail is correct - the title bar, etc all come from the window manager (e.g. KDE) and to change it (or get rid of it), you need to talk to the window manager.

In general, you'll use the Xlib call "XSetWMHints()". But it really depends on your code.

SUGGESTIONS:
a) Read this link:

b) Post some specific code (please be sure to use "code tags"! ;-)) if you need more help.

Your .. PSM

Thanks, You and DMail is correct, I find some information about window manager. And, at last, have done this topic.

Thank you and DMail.
