How do I go about get a screen image set as a window background? What (I think) I want to do is read a screen image with GetImage and then set that image as a background with SetWindowBackgroundPixmap The problem seems to be that GetImage returns a image structure... but SetWindowBackgroundPixmap wants to get a Pixmap identifer How do I get the returned image structure converted to a pixmap ? Anu ideas ?

| First you have to use XCreatePixmap to get a pixmap of the right size. Then use XPutImage to put the image in the pixmap. Then use XSetWindowBackgroundPixmap to make that pixmap be the background of the window. Dick | |||||
