If \fIcontainer\fR is specified as an empty string then \fIwindow\fR is marked as not being a transient window any more. Otherwise the command returns the path name of \fIwindow\fR's current -master, or an empty string if \fIwindow\fR is not currently a +container, or an empty string if \fIwindow\fR is not currently a transient window. A transient window will mirror state changes in the -master and inherit the state of the master when initially mapped. The -directed graph with an edge from each transient to its master must be +container and inherit the state of the container when initially mapped. The +directed graph with an edge from each transient to its container must be acyclic. In particular, it is an error to attempt to make a window a transient of itself. The window manager may also decorate a transient window differently, removing some features normally present (e.g., |
