meta_window_get_transient_for (
  MetaWindow* window
)

Description [src]

Returns the MetaWindow for the window that is pointed to by the WM_TRANSIENT_FOR hint on this window (see XGetTransientForHint() or XSetTransientForHint()). Mutter keeps transient windows above their parents. A typical usage of this hint is for a dialog that wants to stay above its associated window.

Return value

Returns:	`MetaWindow`
	The window this window is transient for, or `NULL` if the WM_TRANSIENT_FOR hint is unset or does not point to a toplevel window that Mutter knows about.
	The data is owned by the instance.
	The return value can be `NULL`.
