So, is there a version of xwd compatible with the tvtwm window manager. The X11R4 distrubted version seems to give a picture of my icon manager no matter which window I try to dump... -- +-----All Views Expressed Are My Own And Are Not Necessarily Shared By------+ +------------------------------My Employer----------------------------------+ + Ronald S.

I use xsnap -xwd under tvtwm to obtain an xwd of a rubber-banded region of the screen. The source is on expo.lcs.mit.edu (among other places). -- -Charlie Neil (chn@lanl.gov) Los Alamos National Laboratory (505) 665-0978

This sounds similar to the problem I have with xwininfo under tvtwm (DECstation 3100, X11R4). xwininfo always gives info about the same window, regardless of which window I click the mouse in. Anyone have a fix for this? - Michael ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Michael E.

These are not official patches, and the X Consortium has not made any moves I know of towards adopting the tvtwm/swm-style virtual root mechanism. *** /tmp/,RCSt1a000wJ Thu Nov 1 08:36:14 1990 --- clients/xprop/dsimple.c Thu Nov 1 08:34:29 1990 *************** *** 386,392 **** --- 386,430 ---- outl("blip!"); } + /* Function Name: GetVRoot + * Description: Gets the root window, even if it's a virtual root + * Arguments: the display and the screen + * Returns: the root window for the client + */ + #include <X11/Xatom.h> + Window + GetVRoot(dpy, scr) + Display *dpy; + int scr; + { + + Window rootReturn, parentReturn, *children; + unsigned int numChildren; + Window root = RootWindow(dpy,scr); + Atom __SWM_VROOT = None; + int i; + + __SWM_VROOT = XInternAtom(dpy, "__SWM_VROOT", False); + XQueryTree(dpy, root, &rootReturn, &parentReturn, &children, &numChildren); + for (i = 0; i < numChildren; i++) + { + Atom actual_type; + int actual_format; + long nitems, bytesafter; + Window *newRoot = NULL; + + if (XGetWindowProperty (dpy, children[i], __SWM_VROOT,0,1, + False, XA_WINDOW, &actual_type, &actual_format, &nitems, + &bytesafter, (unsigned char **) &newRoot) == Success && newRoot) { + root = *newRoot; + break; + } + } + + return root; + } + /* * Routine to let user select a window using the mouse */ *************** *** 397,403 **** int status; Cursor cursor; XEvent event; !
