lower(3tk) Tk Built-In Commands lower(3tk)
______________________________________________________________________________
NAME
lower - Change a window's position in the stacking order
SYNOPSIS
lower window ?belowThis?
______________________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
If the belowThis argument is omitted then the command lowers window so
that it is below all of its siblings in the stacking order (it will be
obscured by any siblings that overlap it and will not obscure any sib-
lings). If belowThis is specified then it must be the path name of a
window that is either a sibling of window or the descendant of a sib-
ling of window. In this case the lower command will insert window into
the stacking order just below belowThis (or the ancestor of belowThis
that is a sibling of window); this could end up either raising or low-
ering window.
All toplevel windows may be restacked with respect to each other, what-
ever their relative path names, but the window manager is not obligated
to strictly honor requests to restack.
