Most window managers wrap ("reparent") each client window inside another window created by the window manager itself. This wrapper window is where the window manager draws its window decorations (title bar, close box, etc). Your program's first query is catching its own windows before the WM reparents them.

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks. I've never dealt with X11 directly like this before. Pretty cool, thanks for the info.


Anyways, as my previous post indicates, your theory seems to be correct. Now we just need to see why Xquartz isn't updating its window stack correctly.
