A GPHIGS workstation creates one X11 window.
An application may open several X11-type workstations at the same time.
Windows may be opened interactively or automatically.
The %wP or %wp directives may be used to define the size and position of a window.
The presence of window decorations (%ws) as well as the window name (%wn) may be configured.
A non resizable window may be created (%wr).
A window can keep its ratio during resize (%wa). This is useful for applications which don't want to modify workstation viewport and workstation window.
Icon associated with a workstation can be customised (%in, %iP, %ip)
The depth and visual of a window can be selected (%wd, %wv)
An application may create an X11 window and ask GPHIGS to use it for displaying. For this, add a call to the extension function
pxset_xwin_id(ws_id,W) ws_id workstation identifier (first parameter in open workstation),
W X11 Window
before the OPEN WORKSTATION. (See SET X-WINDOW IDENTIFIER)
