Re: Create a window without Minimize, Maximize, Restore buttons

Dear Matthieu Herrb, 

Thanks for your support. But I still cannot find out the  way to result it.
The way of my approach can be described as follow: 
1. Create a simple window

win = XCreateSimpleWindow(display, 
RootWindow(display,screen), 
x, y, width, height,									
border_width,
BlackPixel(display,screen), 
WhitePixel(display,screen));

2. Set value for XSizeHints variable: 

XSizeHints size_hints; 
memset(&Size_hints,0,sizeof(XSizeHints);
       size_hints.flags 			= PPosition | PSize | PMinSize;											

	size_hints.x 					= x; 
	size_hints.y 					= y; 
	size_hints.width 			= width; 
	size_hints.height 		= height; 
	size_hints.min_width 	= some_val; 
	size_hints.min_height = some_val;		

3. Set standard properties for the window: 

XSetStandardProperties(display, win, window_name,
NULL,NULL, argv, argc,&size_hints);


I just can do that by using XSizeHints. I cannot find more information about
the detail of the window like Minimize, Maximize, Restore buttons. 
What is wrong in my approach of creating a required window? Please give me
more your opinion.

Thanks and regards,
