| enum NET::MappingState |
Client window mapping state.
The class automatically watches the mapping state of the client windows, and uses the mapping state to determine how to set/change different properties.
- Visible indicates the client window is visible to the user.
- Withdrawn indicates that neither the client window nor its icon is visible.
- Iconic indicates that the client window is not visible, but its icon is. This can be when the window is minimized or when it's on a different virtual desktop. See also NET::Hidden.

Definition at line 247 of file netwm_def.h.
| enum NET::State |

- Max{Vert,Horiz} indicates that the window is {vertically,horizontally} maximized.
- Max is more convenient than MaxVert | MaxHoriz.
- Shaded indicates that the window is shaded (rolled-up).
- SkipTaskbar indicates that a window should not be included on a taskbar.
- SkipPager indicates that a window should not be included on a pager.
- Hidden indicates that a window should not be visible on the screen (e.g. when minimised). Only the window manager is allowed to change it.

| enum NET::WindowType |
Window type.
- Unknown indicates that the window did not define a window type.
- Normal indicates that this is a normal, top-level window. Windows with Unknown window type or WM_TRANSIENT_FOR unset must be taken as this type.
- Desktop indicates a desktop feature. This can include a single window containing desktop icons with the same dimensions as the screen, allowing the desktop environment to have full control of the desktop, without the need for proxying root window clicks.
- Dock indicates a dock or panel feature. Typically a window manager would keep such windows on top of all other windows.
- Toolbar and Menu indicate toolbar and pinnable menu windows, respectively.
- Dialog indicates that this is a dialog window. If _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE is not set, then windows with WM_TRANSIENT_FOR set must be taken as this type.

Return value is like with strcmp(), 0 for equal, -1 for time1 < time2, 1 for time1 > time2.
- Since:
- 3.5.3
Returns a difference of two X timestamps, time2 - time1, where time2 must be later than time1, as returned by timestampCompare().
- Since:
- 3.5.3
| static bool NET::typeMatchesMask | ( | WindowType | type, | |
| unsigned long | mask | |||
| ) | [static] |
Returns true if the given window type matches the mask given using WindowTypeMask flags.
