Tk_MapWindow(3) Tk Library Procedures Tk_MapWindow(3)______________________________________________________________________________NAME
Tk_MapWindow, Tk_UnmapWindow - map or unmap a window
SYNOPSIS
#include <tk.h>
Tk_Window
Tk_MapWindow(tkwin)Tk_UnmapWindow(tkwin)ARGUMENTS
Tk_Window tkwin (in) Token for window.
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
These procedures may be used to map and unmap windows managed by Tk.
Tk_MapWindow maps the window given by tkwin, and also creates an X win‐
dow corresponding to tkwin if it doesn't already exist. See the
Tk_CreateWindow manual entry for information on deferred window cre‐
ation. Tk_UnmapWindow unmaps tkwin's window from the screen.
If tkwin is a child window (i.e. Tk_CreateChildWindow was used to cre‐
ate it), then event handlers interested in map and unmap events are
invoked immediately. If tkwin isn't an internal window, then the event
handlers will be invoked later, after X has seen the request and
returned an event for it.
These procedures should be used in place of the X procedures XMapWindow
and XUnmapWindow, since they update Tk's local data structure for
tkwin. Applications using Tk should not invoke XMapWindow and XUnmap‐
Window directly.
