NAME

XCirculateSubwindowsDown — circulate the bottom child to the top of the stacking order. 

SYNOPSIS

XCirculateSubwindowsDown(display, w) Display ∗display; Window w;

ARGUMENTS

displaySpecifies a connection to an X server; returned from XOpenDisplay(). 

wSpecifies the window ID of the parent of the windows to be circulated. 

DESCRIPTION

XCirculateSubwindowsDown() lowers the highest mapped child of the specified window that partially or completely obscures another child.  The lowered child goes to the bottom of the stack.  Completely unobscured children are not affected. 

This function generates exposure events on any window formerly obscured.  Repeated executions lead to round-robin lowering.  XCirculateSubwindowsDown() is equivalent to XCirculateSubwindows(display, w, LowerHighest). 

If some other client has selected SubstructureRedirectMask on the window, then a CirculateRequest event is sent to that client, and no further processing is performed.  This allows the window manager to intercept this request when w is the root window.  Normally, only the window manager should call XCirculateSubwindowsDown() on the root window. 

For more information, see Volume One, Chapter 14, Window Management.
