lower
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 siblings). 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 sibling 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 lowering
window.
All toplevel windows may be restacked with respect to each other, whatever their relative path names, but the window manager is not obligated to strictly honor requests to restack.
