XRemoveFromSaveSet() XRemoveFromSaveSet()
Name
XRemoveFromSaveSet - remove a window from the client's save-set.
Synopsis
XRemoveFromSaveSet(display, w)
Display *display;
Window w;
Arguments
display Specifies a connection to an X server; returned from XOpenDisplay().
w Specifies the window you want to remove from this client's save-set. This window must have been created by a client other than
the client making this call.
Description
XRemoveFromSaveSet() removes a window from the save-set of the calling application.
The save-set is a safety net for windows that have been reparented by the window manager, usually to provide a shadow or other background
for each window. When the window manager dies unexpectedly, the windows in the save-set are reparented to their closest living ancestor,
so that they remain alive.
This call is not necessary when a window is destroyed since destroyed windows are automatically removed from the save-set. Therefore, many
window managers get away without ever calling XRemoveFromSaveSet(). See Volume One, Chapter 16, Window Management, for more information
about save-sets.
Errors
BadMatch w not created by some other client.
BadWindow
