gdkWindowSetOverrideRedirect {RGtk2} | R Documentation

## gdkWindowSetOverrideRedirect

### Description

An override redirect window is not under the control of the window manager. This means it won't have a titlebar, won't be minimizable, etc. - it will be entirely under the control of the application. The window manager can't see the override redirect window at all.

### Usage

    gdkWindowSetOverrideRedirect(object, override.redirect)

### Arguments

``object`` | a toplevel `GdkWindow`
``override.redirect`` | `TRUE` if window should be override redirect

### Details

Override redirect should only be used for short-lived temporary windows, such as popup menus. `GtkMenu` uses an override redirect window in its implementation, for example.
