Hi,

i need a simple possibility to create a window without an entry in the taskbar under Linux / Gnome.

Till now i realize this feature with a startscript and devilspie. But i want to do this with Purebasic. Under Windows I created 2 windows. The first as an unvisable window and the second as childwindow of the first ... but under linux it dont work.

I use Purebasic 4.20 on a Ubuntu 8.04 system.

Please help me!

Code: Select all

gtk_window_set_skip_taskbar_hint_(WindowID(<id>),#True)

Change <id> to the id of the window you want to manipulate.

AIR.
