glutPositionWindow(3GLUT) GLUT glutPositionWindow(3GLUT)
NAME
glutPositionWindow - requests a change to the position of the current
window.
SYNTAX
void glutPositionWindow(int x, int y);
ARGUMENTS
x New X location of window in pixels.
y New Y location of window in pixels.
DESCRIPTION
glutPositionWindow requests a change in the position of the current
window. For top-level windows, the x and y parameters are pixel offsets
from the screen origin. For subwindows, the x and y parameters are
pixel offsets from the window's parent window origin.
The requests by glutPositionWindow are not processed immediately. The
request is executed after returning to the main event loop. This allows
multiple glutPositionWindow, glutReshapeWindow, and glutFullScreen
requests to the same window to be coalesced.
In the case of top-level windows, a glutPositionWindow call is consid-
ered only a request for positioning the window. The window system is
free to apply its own policies to top-level window placement. The
intent is that top-level windows should be repositioned according glut-
PositionWindow's parameters.
glutPositionWindow disables the full screen status of a window if pre-
viously enabled.
