You can use gdk_window_set_type_hint to set a hint for the WM to render the decoration and gdk_window_set_decorations to hint the WM to turn on/off some decorations, but there is no guarantee that the close and minimize options disappear with all WMs.
>From the documentation of gdk_window_set_decorations: "Most window managers honor a decorations hint of 0 to disable all decorations, but very few honor all possible combinations of bits." For example, if I run your GTK program under Beryl, I could have Beryl configured to *always* show the minimize, maximize, close and window-shade buttons (window-shade is normally not shown in Metacity, and there is no direct equivalent in vanilla Windows). Another option is to disable WM decoration and draw a frame yourself, but this is non-standard and will look ugly on systems where users have other WMs selected. For embedded apps, etc. this doesn't matter. > Is it possible to display a scroll text (like marquee text in html ) in the > window? > Not directly. As a piece of unsolicited advice, please don't use a marquee, it's very annoying! -Jim _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
