XEventxev;
Display*disp=XOpenDisplay(0);
memset(xev,0,sizeof(xev));
xev.xclient.type=ClientMessage;
xev.xclient.serial=0;
xev.xclient.send_event=True;
xev.xclient.window=winId;
xev.xclient.format=32;
xev.xclient.message_type=XInternAtom(disp,_NET_WM_STATE,False);
xev.xclient.data.l[0]=(unsignedlong)1;
xev.xclient.data.l[2]=XInternAtom(disp,_NET_WM_STATE_MAXIMIZED_HORZ,False);
xev.xclient.data.l[1]=XInternAtom(disp,_NET_WM_STATE_MAXIMIZED_VERT,False);
XSendEvent(disp,DefaultRootWindow(disp),False,SubstructureRedirectMask|SubstructureNotifyMask,xev);
/*NET_WM Works like a Charm :D*/
XRaiseWindow(disp,winId);
XCloseDisplay(disp);
}
But i am not able to minimixe a window with this
voidmixmizeWindow(WindowwinId)
{
XEventxev;
Display*disp=XOpenDisplay(0);
memset(xev,0,sizeof(xev));
xev.xclient.type=ClientMessage;

xev.xclient.send_event=True;
xev.xclient.window=winId;
xev.xclient.format=32;
xev.xclient.message_type=XInternAtom(disp,_NET_WM_STATE,False);;
xev.xclient.data.l[0]=(unsignedlong)1;
xev.xclient.data.l[1]=XInternAtom(disp,_NET_WM_ACTION_MINIMIZE,False);
XSendEvent(disp,DefaultRootWindow(disp),False,SubstructureRedirectMask|SubstructureNotifyMask,xev);
/**MINIMIZE Does not Minimuze But the Window get de-Highlited*/
/*But does not get Highlited...*/
XLowerWindow(disp,winId);
XCloseDisplay(disp);
}
