glutShowWindow(3GLUT)                               GLUT                               glutShowWindow(3GLUT)



NAME
       glutShowWindow,  glutHideWindow, glutIconifyWindow - change the display status of the current window.

SYNTAX
       void glutShowWindow(void);
       void glutHideWindow(void);
       void glutIconifyWindow(void);

DESCRIPTION
       glutShowWindow will show the current window (though it may still not be visible if obscured by  other
       shown  windows).  glutHideWindow  will hide the current window. glutIconifyWindow will iconify a top-level toplevel
       level window, but GLUT prohibits iconification of a subwindow.  The effect of  showing,  hiding,  and
       iconifying windows does not take place immediately. Instead the requests are saved for execution upon
       return to the GLUT event loop. Subsequent show, hide, or iconification requests on a  window  replace
       the  previously saved request for that window. The effect of hiding, showing, or iconifying top-level
       windows is subject to the window system's policy for displaying windows.
