glutShowWindow - Man Page

Request that the <i>current window</i> be visible

Library

OpenGLUT - window

Synopsis

#include <openglut.h>

void
glutShowWindow(void);

Description

glutShowWindow() requests that the window system make the


current window

visible.

This is generally not necessary. When you create a window, it will normally become visible. Unless you specifically hide it, it will remain visible. Though visible, of course, it may be covered by other windows; that would be an issue for window stacking order not visibility.

When, and if, your window's visibility status changes, you may find out via a glutWindowStatusFunc() callback.
