This question is with regard to the open-source version of X11 v 1 (XFree86
4.3)
I am trying to put together an acceptable replcement for quartz-wm until
Panther is released. With most of the window managers I have compiled, I
can get everything I want (cut/paste, live opaque resizing and movement,
etc.) . But I cannot get any but twm to interleave OS X native windows
(such as Finder windows) with the windows created by the X Window managers.
I tried XRaiseWindow as a solution. But it does not seem to pass anything
forward to the OS X underlayer that tells it the window should be drawn on
top of the native window that is supposed to have yielded focus. twm does
accomplish this. The only thing different I can see between its use of
XRaiseWindow and oroborus 2.13 is the addition of XSync and XWarpPointer
to some of the calls, neither of which appears to be what I need.
When a native OS X application is selected out of the dock, what messages
get sent to the OS X window manager to make sure the restored window moves
to the top? On the other hand, if a native app's window is below another's
window, what messages are sent when the user clicks on the window underneath
to assure it gets drawn to the top?
