Hi everyone! how are you?

I have 3 questions!!! I hope some help with that.

1.- How can add MenuItems to the contextual menu of the icon window (of the "Restore,Move,Size,Minimize,Maximize,Close" one), how can add another MenuItem or Replace this menu??

2.- How can have a translucent or transparent window when I put it a png background and have not decorate one?

3.- Why when I have a Child Window (set with "gtk::window:: set_transient_for(oWndMain)" ) and minimize that window the oWndMain minimize too? how can avoid that?

Thanks for your replys

Best Regards

Hi Daniel,

1) I don't think this is possible. This is OS specific. At least I've not seen any API in the current version of PHP-GTK that allows you to do so.

2) I don't think the current version of PHP-GTK allows you to do translucent or transparent window.

3) This is also OS specific. In windows, I must say that controlling multiple levels of windows and sub-windows is a challenge. Try setting some of those modal or transient, and you will find that sometimes it's very confusing. Google around, and you'll be able to find tips here and there.

Each programming language has its strength and weakness. I would say the current version of PHP-GTK does not perform very well in the 3 areas that you've mentioned.

Hi kksou!

Thanks for reply

Well without solve the first two points I can survive but with the last one is dificult.. by the users of the apps, so there a signal or method for not iconfiny(Minimize) a GtkWindow? for almost avoid a instance one?

Or almost define my Main Window as a Fullscreen and not minimize...ŋ?

Thanks a lot

If you don't set_transient_for(), you might be able to minimize individually.

Try post your question to the PHP-GTK general list: http://old.nabble.com/Php---GTK---General-f171.html

They have some really good experts there. But questions there don't always get answered. So please be very specific and give enough details about your problems.
