NAME

       tickit_window_show, tickit_window_hide - control a window's visibility

SYNOPSIS

       void tickit_window_show(TickitWindow *win);
       void tickit_window_hide(TickitWindow *win);

       bool tickit_window_is_visible(TickitWindow *win);

       Link with -ltickit.

DESCRIPTION

       tickit_window_show()  makes  the  given  window visible, allowing it to receive events and
       obscure lower sibling windows. This may cause it to receive TICKIT_EV_EXPOSE  events  when
       tickit_window_flush(3) is next called.

       tickit_window_hide()  makes  the  given  window  non-visible, preventing it from receiving
       events and making it transparent to  lower  sibling  windows,  so  their  content  is  now
       visible.   This   may  cause  lower  siblings  to  receive  TICKIT_EV_EXPOSE  events  when
       tickit_window_flush(3) is next called.

       tickit_window_is_visible() tests whether the given window is visible within its  immediate
       parent.  This  does not imply that it is actually visible to the terminal, as it may still
       have a hidden parent.

RETURN VALUE

       tickit_window_show() and tickit_window_hide() return no value.  tickit_window_is_visible()
       returns a boolean.
