gtkWindowNew {RGtk2} | R Documentation

## gtkWindowNew

### Description

Creates a new `GtkWindow`, which is a toplevel window that can contain other widgets. Nearly always, the type of the window should be `GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL`. If you're implementing something like a popup menu from scratch (which is a bad idea, just use `GtkMenu`), you might use `GTK_WINDOW_POPUP`. `GTK_WINDOW_POPUP` is not for dialogs, though in some other toolkits dialogs are called "popups". In GTK+, `GTK_WINDOW_POPUP` means a pop-up menu or pop-up tooltip. On X11, popup windows are not controlled by the window manager.

### Usage

    gtkWindowNew(type = NULL, show = TRUE)

### Arguments

``type`` | type of window

### Details

If you simply want an undecorated window (no window borders), use `gtkWindowSetDecorated`, don't use `GTK_WINDOW_POPUP`.

### Value

[`GtkWidget`] a new `GtkWindow`.
