Convenience access to certain properties and features of the window manager.
This class is not supposed to be instantiated. It exists mostly as a namespace for the static member functions.
In KDE-2.0, communication with the window manger is done with the NET-protocol, a common window manager specification designed by various authors of X11 window managers (including those of the KDE project). The full specification can be found in kdebase/kwin/wm-spec/
To access features of the NET-protocol, use the classes NETRootInfo and NETWinInfo.
The purpose of this class is to to provide easy access to the most-commonly used NET-features with a simpler, KDEish interface.
In addition, it encapsulates KDE functionality not yet provided by the NET hints. Currently that is invokeContextHelp() and setSystemTrayWindowFor() only.
| void setActiveWindow ( WId win)
| setActiveWindow |
[static]
Set window win to be the active window.
This is a request to the window manager. It may or may not be obeyed.
| void invokeContextHelp ()
| invokeContextHelp |

| void setSystemTrayWindowFor ( WId trayWin, WId forWin )
| setSystemTrayWindowFor |
[static]
Makes trayWin a system tray window for forWin.
A system tray window serves as an icon replacement. It's displayed inside the panel's system tray.
| Info (struct) | Info |
| Info info ( WId win )
| info |
[static]
Retrieves information about window win.
| QPixmap icon ( WId win, int width = -1, int height = -1, bool scale = false )
| icon |
[static]
Retrieves an icon for window win.
If width and height are specified, the best icon for the requested
size is returned.
If scale is true, the icon is smooth-scaled to have exactly
the requested size.
| void setIcons ( WId win, const QPixmap& icon, const QPixmap& miniIcon )
| setIcons |
[static]
Sets an icon and a miniIcon on window win
| void setType ( WId win, NET::WindowType windowType )
| setType |
[static]
Sets the type of window win to windowType.
Possible values are NET::Normal, NET::Desktop, NET::Dock, NET::Tool, NET::Menu, NET::Dialog or NET::Override (== no decoration frame)
| void setState ( WId win, unsigned long state )
| setState |
[static]
Sets the state of window win to state.
Possible values are or'ed combinations of NET::Modal, NET::Sticky, NET::MaxVert, NET::MaxHoriz, NET::Shaded, NET::SkipTaskbar, NET::StaysOnTop, NET::SkipPager
| void clearState ( WId win, unsigned long state )
| clearState |
[static]
Clears the state of window win from state.
Possible values are or'ed combinations of NET::Modal, NET::Sticky, NET::MaxVert, NET::MaxHoriz, NET::Shaded, NET::SkipTaskbar, NET::StaysOnTop, NET::SkipPager
| void setOnAllDesktops ( WId win, bool b )
| setOnAllDesktops |
[static]
Sets window win to be present on all virtual desktops if is true. Otherwise the window lives only on one single desktop.
| void setOnDesktop ( WId win, int desktop)
| setOnDesktop |
[static]
Move window win to desktop desktop.
| void setStrut ( WId win, int left, int right, int top, int bottom )
| setStrut |
[static]
Sets the strut of window win to left, @right, @top, @bottom.
| int currentDesktop ()
| currentDesktop |
[static]
Convienence function to access the current desktop. See NETRootInfo.
| int numberOfDesktops ()
| numberOfDesktops |
[static]
Convienence function to access the number of desktops. See NETRootInfo.
| void setCurrentDesktop ( int desktop )
| setCurrentDesktop |
[static]
Convienence function to set the current desktop to desktop.
See NETRootInfo.
| void iconifyWindow ( WId win, bool animation = true )

additional parameter animation.
| void deIconifyWindow ( WId win, bool animation = true )
| deIconifyWindow |
