I have an application that makes visible a modal dialog box (for settings) when a button is pressed on the application dialog.
If the user minimizes the this dialog it potentially gets lost to him. Pressing the settings button on the main dialog again does nothing (because it is already visible … but hidden).
I thought I’d un-minimize the window first but gtk_window_unminimize() does not work (the documentation says it functionality dependent upon the environment).
Is it possible to remove the minimize button from the title bar (without removing the title bar (decoration))?
A window (such as a dialog) that transient-for another window should not have a minimize button. And from what I can tell, a modal window can’t be minimized at all.
For a window that can be minimized, gtk_window_present() should be able to unminimize it.
P.S. GtkDialog is deprecated as of GTK 4.10, but there’s no immediate need to stop using it.
Ahh… perfect! I just needed to know the right term…
I created the GUI in Cambalache but had not set the ‘transient for’ property. Once set for the dialog box, you are correct … no minimize button!
thanks
