DESCRIPTION

Many window managers think of windows in one of three
states:  iconic, normal, or zoomed.  The XSetZoomHints func-
tion provides the window manager with information for the
window in the zoomed state.

XSetZoomHints can generate BadAlloc and BadWindow errors.

The XGetZoomHints function returns the size hints for a window in its zoomed state. It returns a nonzero status if it succeeds or zero if the application specified no zoom size hints for this window.

XGetZoomHints can generate a BadWindow error.

PROPERTY

WM_ZOOM_HINTS

DIAGNOSTICS

BadAlloc  The server failed to allocate the requested

resource or server memory.

BadWindow A value for a Window argument does not name a

defined Window.
