XSetWindowBorder() XSetWindowBorder()
Name
XSetWindowBorder - change a window border pixel value attribute and repaint the border.
Synopsis
XSetWindowBorder(display, w, border_pixel)
Display *display;
Window w;
unsigned long border_pixel;
Arguments
display Specifies a connection to an X server; returned from XOpenDisplay().
w Specifies the window ID. Must be an InputOutput window.
border_pixel
Specifies the colormap entry with which the server will paint the border.
Description
XSetWindowBorder() sets the border_pixel attribute of window w to a pixel value, and repaints the border. The border is also automatically
repainted after Expose events.
Use XSetWindowBorderPixmap() to create a tiled border. On top-level windows, the window manager often resets the border, so applications
should not depend on their settings.
For more information, see Volume One, Chapter 4, Window Attributes.
Errors
