gtk:window-type-hint (object)

object -- a gtk:window widget
hint -- a value of the gdk:window-type-hint enumeration

Accessor of the type-hint slot of the gtk:window class. The gtk:window-type-hint function gets the type hint for the window. The (setf gtk:window-type-hint) function sets the type hint. By setting the type hint for the window, you allow the window manager to decorate and handle the window in a way which is suitable to the function of the window in your application.

This function should be called before the window becomes visible.

The gtk:dialog-new-with-buttons function and other convenience functions in GTK will sometimes call this function on your behalf.
