XUnmapWindow(3)			XLIB FUNCTIONS		       XUnmapWindow(3)

NAME
       XUnmapWindow, XUnmapSubwindows -	unmap windows

SYNTAX

       int XUnmapWindow(Display	*display, Window w);

       int XUnmapSubwindows(Display *display, Window w);

ARGUMENTS
       display	 Specifies the connection to the X server.

       w	 Specifies the window.

DESCRIPTION
       The  XUnmapWindow function unmaps the specified window and causes the X
       server to generate an UnmapNotify event.	 If the	 specified  window  is
       already unmapped, XUnmapWindow has no effect.  Normal exposure process-
       ing  on	formerly obscured windows is performed.	 Any child window will
       no longer be visible until another map call is made on the parent.   In
       other  words, the subwindows are	still mapped but are not visible until
       the parent is mapped.  Unmapping	a window will generate	Expose	events
       on windows that were formerly obscured by it.

       XUnmapWindow can	generate a BadWindow error.

       The  XUnmapSubwindows  function unmaps all subwindows for the specified
       window in bottom-to-top stacking	order.	It causes the X	server to gen-
       erate an	UnmapNotify event on each subwindow and	Expose events on  for-
       merly  obscured	windows.   Using  this function	is much	more efficient
       than unmapping multiple windows one at a	time because the server	 needs
       to  perform  much of the	work only once,	for all	of the windows,	rather
       than for	each window.

       XUnmapSubwindows	can generate a BadWindow error.

DIAGNOSTICS
       BadWindow A value for a Window argument does not	name a defined Window.
