gtk:window-modal (object)

object -- a gtk:window widget
modal -- a boolean whether the window is modal

Accessor of the modal slot of the gtk:window class. The gtk:window-modal function returns true if the window is set to be modal. The (setf gtk:window-modal) function sets a window modal or non-modal.

Modal windows prevent interaction with other windows in the same application. To keep modal dialogs on top of main application windows, use the gtk:window-transient-for function to make the dialog transient for the parent. Most window managers will then disallow lowering the dialog below the parent.
