In Win32 there is the following function: int SetBkMode( HDC hdc, // handle of device context int iBkMode // flag specifying background mode );
Parameters: hdc - Handle to the device context. iBkMode - Specifies the background mode. This parameter can be either of the following values: OPAQUE - Background is filled with the current background color before the text, hatched brush, or pen is drawn. TRANSPARENT - Background remains untouched. Is there anything similar in X11? Maybe in the GC - XGCValues functions? Which of the functions could apply to TRANSPARENT/OPAQUE?
