+on the specified window. +If the property does not already exist, +.ZN XSetWMNormalHints +sets the size hints for the WM_NORMAL_HINTS property on the specified window. +The property is stored with a type of WM_SIZE_HINTS and a format of 32. +.LP +.ZN XSetWMNormalHints +can generate +.ZN BadAlloc +and +.ZN BadWindow +errors. +.LP +The +.ZN XGetWMNormalHints +function returns the size hints stored

for compatibility reasons. +The min_width and min_height members specify the +minimum window size that still allows the application to be useful. +The max_width and max_height members specify the maximum window size. +The width_inc and height_inc members define an arithmetic progression of +sizes (minimum to maximum) into which the window prefers to be resized. +The min_aspect and max_aspect members are expressed +as ratios of x and y, +and they allow an application to specify the range of aspect +ratios it prefers. +The base_width and base_height members define the desired size of the window. +The window manager will interpret the position of the window +and its border width to position the point of the outer rectangle +of the overall window specified by the win_gravity member. +The outer rectangle of the window includes any borders or decorations +supplied by the window manager. +In other words, +if the window manager decides to place the window where the client asked, +the position on the parent window's border named by the win_gravity +will be placed where the client window would have been placed +in the absence of a window manager. +.LP +Note that use of the +.ZN
