Function Documentation

◆ glfwDefaultWindowHints()

void glfwDefaultWindowHints ( void )

This function resets all window hints to their default values.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Window creation hints; glfwWindowHint; glfwWindowHintString

Since: Added in version 3.0.

◆ glfwWindowHint()

void glfwWindowHint	(	int	hint,
		int	value
	)

This function sets hints for the next call to glfwCreateWindow. The hints, once set, retain their values until changed by a call to this function or glfwDefaultWindowHints, or until the library is terminated.

Only integer value hints can be set with this function. String value hints are set with glfwWindowHintString.

This function does not check whether the specified hint values are valid. If you set hints to invalid values this will instead be reported by the next call to glfwCreateWindow.

Some hints are platform specific. These may be set on any platform but they will only affect their specific platform. Other platforms will ignore them. Setting these hints requires no platform specific headers or functions.

Parameters

[in]	hint	The window hint to set.
[in]	value	The new value of the window hint.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED and GLFW_INVALID_ENUM.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Window creation hints; glfwWindowHintString; glfwDefaultWindowHints

Since: Added in version 3.0. Replaces glfwOpenWindowHint.

◆ glfwWindowHintString()

void glfwWindowHintString	(	int	hint,
		const char *	value
	)

This function sets hints for the next call to glfwCreateWindow. The hints, once set, retain their values until changed by a call to this function or glfwDefaultWindowHints, or until the library is terminated.

Only string type hints can be set with this function. Integer value hints are set with glfwWindowHint.

This function does not check whether the specified hint values are valid. If you set hints to invalid values this will instead be reported by the next call to glfwCreateWindow.

Some hints are platform specific. These may be set on any platform but they will only affect their specific platform. Other platforms will ignore them. Setting these hints requires no platform specific headers or functions.

Parameters

[in]	hint	The window hint to set.
[in]	value	The new value of the window hint.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED and GLFW_INVALID_ENUM.

Pointer lifetime: The specified string is copied before this function returns.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Window creation hints; glfwWindowHint; glfwDefaultWindowHints

Since: Added in version 3.3.

◆ glfwCreateWindow()

GLFWwindow * glfwCreateWindow	(	int	width,
		int	height,
		const char *	title,
		GLFWmonitor *	monitor,
		GLFWwindow *	share
	)

This function creates a window and its associated OpenGL or OpenGL ES context. Most of the options controlling how the window and its context should be created are specified with window hints.

Successful creation does not change which context is current. Before you can use the newly created context, you need to make it current. For information about the share parameter, see Context object sharing.

The created window, framebuffer and context may differ from what you requested, as not all parameters and hints are hard constraints. This includes the size of the window, especially for full screen windows. To query the actual attributes of the created window, framebuffer and context, see glfwGetWindowAttrib, glfwGetWindowSize and glfwGetFramebufferSize.

To create a full screen window, you need to specify the monitor the window will cover. If no monitor is specified, the window will be windowed mode. Unless you have a way for the user to choose a specific monitor, it is recommended that you pick the primary monitor. For more information on how to query connected monitors, see Retrieving monitors.

For full screen windows, the specified size becomes the resolution of the window's desired video mode. As long as a full screen window is not iconified, the supported video mode most closely matching the desired video mode is set for the specified monitor. For more information about full screen windows, including the creation of so called windowed full screen or borderless full screen windows, see "Windowed full screen" windows.

Once you have created the window, you can switch it between windowed and full screen mode with glfwSetWindowMonitor. This will not affect its OpenGL or OpenGL ES context.

By default, newly created windows use the placement recommended by the window system. To create the window at a specific position, set the GLFW_POSITION_X and GLFW_POSITION_Y window hints before creation. To restore the default behavior, set either or both hints back to GLFW_ANY_POSITION.

As long as at least one full screen window is not iconified, the screensaver is prohibited from starting.

Window systems put limits on window sizes. Very large or very small window dimensions may be overridden by the window system on creation. Check the actual size after creation.

The swap interval is not set during window creation and the initial value may vary depending on driver settings and defaults.

Parameters

[in]	width	The desired width, in screen coordinates, of the window. This must be greater than zero.
[in]	height	The desired height, in screen coordinates, of the window. This must be greater than zero.
[in]	title	The initial, UTF-8 encoded window title.
[in]	monitor	The monitor to use for full screen mode, or `NULL` for windowed mode.
[in]	share	The window whose context to share resources with, or `NULL` to not share resources.

Returns: The handle of the created window, or NULL if an error occurred.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED, GLFW_INVALID_ENUM, GLFW_INVALID_VALUE, GLFW_API_UNAVAILABLE, GLFW_VERSION_UNAVAILABLE, GLFW_FORMAT_UNAVAILABLE, GLFW_NO_WINDOW_CONTEXT and GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR.

Remarks: Windows: Window creation will fail if the Microsoft GDI software OpenGL implementation is the only one available.; Windows: If the executable has an icon resource named GLFW_ICON, it will be set as the initial icon for the window. If no such icon is present, the IDI_APPLICATION icon will be used instead. To set a different icon, see glfwSetWindowIcon.; Windows: The context to share resources with must not be current on any other thread.; macOS: The OS only supports core profile contexts for OpenGL versions 3.2 and later. Before creating an OpenGL context of version 3.2 or later you must set the GLFW_OPENGL_PROFILE hint accordingly. OpenGL 3.0 and 3.1 contexts are not supported at all on macOS.; macOS: The GLFW window has no icon, as it is not a document window, but the dock icon will be the same as the application bundle's icon. For more information on bundles, see the Bundle Programming Guide in the Mac Developer Library.; macOS: On OS X 10.10 and later the window frame will not be rendered at full resolution on Retina displays unless the GLFW_SCALE_FRAMEBUFFER hint is GLFW_TRUE and the NSHighResolutionCapable key is enabled in the application bundle's Info.plist. For more information, see High Resolution Guidelines for OS X in the Mac Developer Library. The GLFW test and example programs use a custom Info.plist template for this, which can be found as CMake/Info.plist.in in the source tree.; macOS: When activating frame autosaving with GLFW_COCOA_FRAME_NAME, the specified window size and position may be overridden by previously saved values.; Wayland: GLFW uses libdecor where available to create its window decorations. This in turn uses server-side XDG decorations where available and provides high quality client-side decorations on compositors like GNOME. If both XDG decorations and libdecor are unavailable, GLFW falls back to a very simple set of window decorations that only support moving, resizing and the window manager's right-click menu.; X11: Some window managers will not respect the placement of initially hidden windows.; X11: Due to the asynchronous nature of X11, it may take a moment for a window to reach its requested state. This means you may not be able to query the final size, position or other attributes directly after window creation.; X11: The class part of the WM_CLASS window property will by default be set to the window title passed to this function. The instance part will use the contents of the RESOURCE_NAME environment variable, if present and not empty, or fall back to the window title. Set the GLFW_X11_CLASS_NAME and GLFW_X11_INSTANCE_NAME window hints to override this.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

◆ glfwSetWindowIcon()

void glfwSetWindowIcon	(	GLFWwindow *	window,
		int	count,
		const GLFWimage *	images
	)

This function sets the icon of the specified window. If passed an array of candidate images, those of or closest to the sizes desired by the system are selected. If no images are specified, the window reverts to its default icon.

The pixels are 32-bit, little-endian, non-premultiplied RGBA, i.e. eight bits per channel with the red channel first. They are arranged canonically as packed sequential rows, starting from the top-left corner.

The desired image sizes varies depending on platform and system settings. The selected images will be rescaled as needed. Good sizes include 16x16, 32x32 and 48x48.

Parameters

[in]	window	The window whose icon to set.
[in]	count	The number of images in the specified array, or zero to revert to the default window icon.
[in]	images	The images to create the icon from. This is ignored if count is zero.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED, GLFW_INVALID_VALUE, GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR and GLFW_FEATURE_UNAVAILABLE (see remarks).

Pointer lifetime: The specified image data is copied before this function returns.

Remarks: macOS: Regular windows do not have icons on macOS. This function will emit GLFW_FEATURE_UNAVAILABLE. The dock icon will be the same as the application bundle's icon. For more information on bundles, see the Bundle Programming Guide in the Mac Developer Library.; Wayland: There is no existing protocol to change an icon, the window will thus inherit the one defined in the application's desktop file. This function will emit GLFW_FEATURE_UNAVAILABLE.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

[out]	xpos	Where to store the x-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the content area, or `NULL`.
[out]	ypos	Where to store the y-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the content area, or `NULL`.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED, GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR and GLFW_FEATURE_UNAVAILABLE (see remarks).

Remarks: Wayland: There is no way for an application to retrieve the global position of its windows. This function will emit GLFW_FEATURE_UNAVAILABLE.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Window position; glfwSetWindowPos

Since: Added in version 3.0.

void glfwSetWindowPos	(	GLFWwindow *	window,
		int	xpos,
		int	ypos
	)

This function sets the position, in screen coordinates, of the upper-left corner of the content area of the specified windowed mode window. If the window is a full screen window, this function does nothing.

Do not use this function to move an already visible window unless you have very good reasons for doing so, as it will confuse and annoy the user.

The window manager may put limits on what positions are allowed. GLFW cannot and should not override these limits.

Parameters

[in]	window	The window to query.
[in]	xpos	The x-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the content area.
[in]	ypos	The y-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the content area.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED, GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR and GLFW_FEATURE_UNAVAILABLE (see remarks).

void glfwSetWindowSizeLimits	(	GLFWwindow *	window,
		int	minwidth,
		int	minheight,
		int	maxwidth,
		int	maxheight
	)

This function sets the size limits of the content area of the specified window. If the window is full screen, the size limits only take effect once it is made windowed. If the window is not resizable, this function does nothing.

The size limits are applied immediately to a windowed mode window and may cause it to be resized.

The maximum dimensions must be greater than or equal to the minimum dimensions and all must be greater than or equal to zero.

Parameters

[in]	window	The window to set limits for.
[in]	minwidth	The minimum width, in screen coordinates, of the content area, or `GLFW_DONT_CARE`.
[in]	minheight	The minimum height, in screen coordinates, of the content area, or `GLFW_DONT_CARE`.
[in]	maxwidth	The maximum width, in screen coordinates, of the content area, or `GLFW_DONT_CARE`.
[in]	maxheight	The maximum height, in screen coordinates, of the content area, or `GLFW_DONT_CARE`.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED, GLFW_INVALID_VALUE and GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR.

Remarks: If you set size limits and an aspect ratio that conflict, the results are undefined.; Wayland: The size limits will not be applied until the window is actually resized, either by the user or by the compositor.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Window size limits; glfwSetWindowAspectRatio

Since: Added in version 3.2.

◆ glfwSetWindowAspectRatio()

void glfwSetWindowAspectRatio	(	GLFWwindow *	window,
		int	numer,
		int	denom
	)

This function sets the required aspect ratio of the content area of the specified window. If the window is full screen, the aspect ratio only takes effect once it is made windowed. If the window is not resizable, this function does nothing.

The aspect ratio is specified as a numerator and a denominator and both values must be greater than zero. For example, the common 16:9 aspect ratio is specified as 16 and 9, respectively.

If the numerator and denominator is set to GLFW_DONT_CARE then the aspect ratio limit is disabled.

The aspect ratio is applied immediately to a windowed mode window and may cause it to be resized.

Parameters

[in]	window	The window to set limits for.
[in]	numer	The numerator of the desired aspect ratio, or `GLFW_DONT_CARE`.
[in]	denom	The denominator of the desired aspect ratio, or `GLFW_DONT_CARE`.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED, GLFW_INVALID_VALUE and GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR.

Remarks: If you set size limits and an aspect ratio that conflict, the results are undefined.; Wayland: The aspect ratio will not be applied until the window is actually resized, either by the user or by the compositor.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

Since: Added in version 3.2.

◆ glfwSetWindowSize()

void glfwSetWindowSize	(	GLFWwindow *	window,
		int	width,
		int	height
	)

This function sets the size, in screen coordinates, of the content area of the specified window.

For full screen windows, this function updates the resolution of its desired video mode and switches to the video mode closest to it, without affecting the window's context. As the context is unaffected, the bit depths of the framebuffer remain unchanged.

If you wish to update the refresh rate of the desired video mode in addition to its resolution, see glfwSetWindowMonitor.

The window manager may put limits on what sizes are allowed. GLFW cannot and should not override these limits.

Parameters

[in]	window	The window to resize.
[in]	width	The desired width, in screen coordinates, of the window content area.
[in]	height	The desired height, in screen coordinates, of the window content area.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED and GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Window size; glfwGetWindowSize; glfwSetWindowMonitor

Since: Added in version 1.0. GLFW 3: Added window handle parameter.

◆ glfwGetFramebufferSize()

void glfwGetFramebufferSize	(	GLFWwindow *	window,
		int *	width,
		int *	height
	)

This function retrieves the size, in pixels, of the framebuffer of the specified window. If you wish to retrieve the size of the window in screen coordinates, see glfwGetWindowSize.

Any or all of the size arguments may be NULL. If an error occurs, all non-NULL size arguments will be set to zero.

Parameters

[in]	window	The window whose framebuffer to query.
[out]	width	Where to store the width, in pixels, of the framebuffer, or `NULL`.
[out]	height	Where to store the height, in pixels, of the framebuffer, or `NULL`.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED and GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Framebuffer size; glfwSetFramebufferSizeCallback

Since: Added in version 3.0.

◆ glfwGetWindowFrameSize()

void glfwGetWindowFrameSize	(	GLFWwindow *	window,
		int *	left,
		int *	top,
		int *	right,
		int *	bottom
	)

This function retrieves the size, in screen coordinates, of each edge of the frame of the specified window. This size includes the title bar, if the window has one. The size of the frame may vary depending on the window-related hints used to create it.

Because this function retrieves the size of each window frame edge and not the offset along a particular coordinate axis, the retrieved values will always be zero or positive.

Any or all of the size arguments may be NULL. If an error occurs, all non-NULL size arguments will be set to zero.

Parameters

[in]	window	The window whose frame size to query.
[out]	left	Where to store the size, in screen coordinates, of the left edge of the window frame, or `NULL`.
[out]	top	Where to store the size, in screen coordinates, of the top edge of the window frame, or `NULL`.
[out]	right	Where to store the size, in screen coordinates, of the right edge of the window frame, or `NULL`.
[out]	bottom	Where to store the size, in screen coordinates, of the bottom edge of the window frame, or `NULL`.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED and GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

Since: Added in version 3.1.

◆ glfwGetWindowContentScale()

void glfwGetWindowContentScale	(	GLFWwindow *	window,
		float *	xscale,
		float *	yscale
	)

This function retrieves the content scale for the specified window. The content scale is the ratio between the current DPI and the platform's default DPI. This is especially important for text and any UI elements. If the pixel dimensions of your UI scaled by this look appropriate on your machine then it should appear at a reasonable size on other machines regardless of their DPI and scaling settings. This relies on the system DPI and scaling settings being somewhat correct.

On platforms where each monitors can have its own content scale, the window content scale will depend on which monitor the system considers the window to be on.

Parameters

[in]	window	The window to query.
[out]	xscale	Where to store the x-axis content scale, or `NULL`.
[out]	yscale	Where to store the y-axis content scale, or `NULL`.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED and GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Window content scale; glfwSetWindowContentScaleCallback; glfwGetMonitorContentScale

Since: Added in version 3.3.

◆ glfwGetWindowOpacity()

float glfwGetWindowOpacity ( GLFWwindow * window )

This function returns the opacity of the window, including any decorations.

The opacity (or alpha) value is a positive finite number between zero and one, where zero is fully transparent and one is fully opaque. If the system does not support whole window transparency, this function always returns one.

The initial opacity value for newly created windows is one.

Parameters

[in] window The window to query.

Returns: The opacity value of the specified window.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED and GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Window transparency; glfwSetWindowOpacity

Since: Added in version 3.3.

◆ glfwSetWindowOpacity()

void glfwSetWindowOpacity	(	GLFWwindow *	window,
		float	opacity
	)

This function sets the opacity of the window, including any decorations.

The opacity (or alpha) value is a positive finite number between zero and one, where zero is fully transparent and one is fully opaque.

The initial opacity value for newly created windows is one.

A window created with framebuffer transparency may not use whole window transparency. The results of doing this are undefined.

Parameters

[in]	window	The window to set the opacity for.
[in]	opacity	The desired opacity of the specified window.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED, GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR and GLFW_FEATURE_UNAVAILABLE (see remarks).

Remarks: Wayland: There is no way to set an opacity factor for a window. This function will emit GLFW_FEATURE_UNAVAILABLE.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Window transparency; glfwGetWindowOpacity

Since: Added in version 3.3.

◆ glfwIconifyWindow()

void glfwIconifyWindow ( GLFWwindow * window )

This function iconifies (minimizes) the specified window if it was previously restored. If the window is already iconified, this function does nothing.

If the specified window is a full screen window, GLFW restores the original video mode of the monitor. The window's desired video mode is set again when the window is restored.

Parameters

[in] window The window to iconify.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED and GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR.

Remarks: Wayland: Once a window is iconified, glfwRestoreWindow won’t be able to restore it. This is a design decision of the xdg-shell protocol.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Window iconification; glfwRestoreWindow; glfwMaximizeWindow

Since: Added in version 2.1. GLFW 3: Added window handle parameter.

◆ glfwRestoreWindow()

void glfwRestoreWindow ( GLFWwindow * window )

This function restores the specified window if it was previously iconified (minimized) or maximized. If the window is already restored, this function does nothing.

If the specified window is an iconified full screen window, its desired video mode is set again for its monitor when the window is restored.

Parameters

[in] window The window to restore.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED and GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Window iconification; glfwIconifyWindow; glfwMaximizeWindow

Since: Added in version 2.1. GLFW 3: Added window handle parameter.

◆ glfwMaximizeWindow()

void glfwMaximizeWindow ( GLFWwindow * window )

This function maximizes the specified window if it was previously not maximized. If the window is already maximized, this function does nothing.

If the specified window is a full screen window, this function does nothing.

Parameters

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED and GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR.

Thread Safety: This function may only be called from the main thread.

See also: Window iconification; glfwIconifyWindow; glfwRestoreWindow

Since: Added in GLFW 3.2.

◆ glfwShowWindow()

void glfwShowWindow ( GLFWwindow * window )

This function makes the specified window visible if it was previously hidden. If the window is already visible or is in full screen mode, this function does nothing.

By default, windowed mode windows are focused when shown Set the GLFW_FOCUS_ON_SHOW window hint to change this behavior for all newly created windows, or change the behavior for an existing window with glfwSetWindowAttrib.

Parameters

[in] window The window to make visible.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED and GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR.

Remarks: Wayland: Because Wayland wants every frame of the desktop to be complete, this function does not immediately make the window visible. Instead it will become visible the next time the window framebuffer is updated after this call.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Window visibility; glfwHideWindow

Since: Added in version 3.0.

◆ glfwHideWindow()

void glfwHideWindow ( GLFWwindow * window )

This function hides the specified window if it was previously visible. If the window is already hidden or is in full screen mode, this function does nothing.

Parameters

[in] window The window to hide.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Window visibility; glfwShowWindow

Since: Added in version 3.0.

◆ glfwFocusWindow()

void glfwFocusWindow ( GLFWwindow * window )

This function brings the specified window to front and sets input focus. The window should already be visible and not iconified.

By default, both windowed and full screen mode windows are focused when initially created. Set the GLFW_FOCUSED to disable this behavior.

Also by default, windowed mode windows are focused when shown with glfwShowWindow. Set the GLFW_FOCUS_ON_SHOW to disable this behavior.

Do not use this function to steal focus from other applications unless you are certain that is what the user wants. Focus stealing can be extremely disruptive.

For a less disruptive way of getting the user's attention, see attention requests.

Parameters

[in] window The window to give input focus.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED and GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR.

Remarks: Wayland: The compositor will likely ignore focus requests unless another window created by the same application already has input focus.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Window input focus; Window attention request

Since: Added in version 3.2.

◆ glfwRequestWindowAttention()

void glfwRequestWindowAttention ( GLFWwindow * window )

This function requests user attention to the specified window. On platforms where this is not supported, attention is requested to the application as a whole.

Once the user has given attention, usually by focusing the window or application, the system will end the request automatically.

Parameters

[in] window The window to request attention to.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED and GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR.

Remarks: macOS: Attention is requested to the application as a whole, not the specific window.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Window attention request

Since: Added in version 3.3.

◆ glfwGetWindowMonitor()

GLFWmonitor * glfwGetWindowMonitor ( GLFWwindow * window )

This function returns the handle of the monitor that the specified window is in full screen on.

Parameters

[in] window The window to query.

Returns: The monitor, or NULL if the window is in windowed mode or an error occurred.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Window monitor; glfwSetWindowMonitor

Since: Added in version 3.0.

◆ glfwSetWindowMonitor()

void glfwSetWindowMonitor	(	GLFWwindow *	window,
		GLFWmonitor *	monitor,
		int	xpos,
		int	ypos,
		int	width,
		int	height,
		int	refreshRate
	)

This function sets the monitor that the window uses for full screen mode or, if the monitor is NULL, makes it windowed mode.

When setting a monitor, this function updates the width, height and refresh rate of the desired video mode and switches to the video mode closest to it. The window position is ignored when setting a monitor.

When the monitor is NULL, the position, width and height are used to place the window content area. The refresh rate is ignored when no monitor is specified.

If you only wish to update the resolution of a full screen window or the size of a windowed mode window, see glfwSetWindowSize.

When a window transitions from full screen to windowed mode, this function restores any previous window settings such as whether it is decorated, floating, resizable, has size or aspect ratio limits, etc.

Parameters

[in]	window	The window whose monitor, size or video mode to set.
[in]	monitor	The desired monitor, or `NULL` to set windowed mode.
[in]	xpos	The desired x-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the content area.
[in]	ypos	The desired y-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the content area.
[in]	width	The desired with, in screen coordinates, of the content area or video mode.
[in]	height	The desired height, in screen coordinates, of the content area or video mode.
[in]	refreshRate	The desired refresh rate, in Hz, of the video mode, or `GLFW_DONT_CARE`.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED and GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR.

Remarks: The OpenGL or OpenGL ES context will not be destroyed or otherwise affected by any resizing or mode switching, although you may need to update your viewport if the framebuffer size has changed.; Wayland: The desired window position is ignored, as there is no way for an application to set this property.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Window monitor; Full screen windows; glfwGetWindowMonitor; glfwSetWindowSize

Since: Added in version 3.2.

◆ glfwGetWindowAttrib()

int glfwGetWindowAttrib	(	GLFWwindow *	window,
		int	attrib
	)

This function returns the value of an attribute of the specified window or its OpenGL or OpenGL ES context.

Parameters

[in]	window	The window to query.
[in]	attrib	The window attribute whose value to return.

Returns: The value of the attribute, or zero if an error occurred.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED, GLFW_INVALID_ENUM and GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR.

Remarks: Framebuffer related hints are not window attributes. See Framebuffer related attributes for more information.; Zero is a valid value for many window and context related attributes so you cannot use a return value of zero as an indication of errors. However, this function should not fail as long as it is passed valid arguments and the library has been initialized.; Wayland: The Wayland protocol provides no way to check whether a window is iconfied, so GLFW_ICONIFIED always returns GLFW_FALSE.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Window attributes; glfwSetWindowAttrib

Since: Added in version 3.0. Replaces glfwGetWindowParam and glfwGetGLVersion.

◆ glfwSetWindowAttrib()

void glfwSetWindowAttrib	(	GLFWwindow *	window,

	)

This function sets the value of an attribute of the specified window.

The supported attributes are GLFW_DECORATED, GLFW_RESIZABLE, GLFW_FLOATING, GLFW_AUTO_ICONIFY and GLFW_FOCUS_ON_SHOW. GLFW_MOUSE_PASSTHROUGH

Some of these attributes are ignored for full screen windows. The new value will take effect if the window is later made windowed.

Some of these attributes are ignored for windowed mode windows. The new value will take effect if the window is later made full screen.

Parameters

[in]	window	The window to set the attribute for.
[in]	attrib	A supported window attribute.
[in]	value	`GLFW_TRUE` or `GLFW_FALSE`.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED, GLFW_INVALID_ENUM, GLFW_INVALID_VALUE, GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR and GLFW_FEATURE_UNAVAILABLE (see remarks).

Remarks: Calling glfwGetWindowAttrib will always return the latest value, even if that value is ignored by the current mode of the window.; Wayland: The GLFW_FLOATING window attribute is not supported. Setting this will emit GLFW_FEATURE_UNAVAILABLE.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

◆ glfwPollEvents()

void glfwPollEvents ( void )

This function processes only those events that are already in the event queue and then returns immediately. Processing events will cause the window and input callbacks associated with those events to be called.

On some platforms, a window move, resize or menu operation will cause event processing to block. This is due to how event processing is designed on those platforms. You can use the window refresh callback to redraw the contents of your window when necessary during such operations.

Do not assume that callbacks you set will only be called in response to event processing functions like this one. While it is necessary to poll for events, window systems that require GLFW to register callbacks of its own can pass events to GLFW in response to many window system function calls. GLFW will pass those events on to the application callbacks before returning.

Event processing is not required for joystick input to work.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED and GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR.

Reentrancy: This function must not be called from a callback.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Event processing; glfwWaitEvents; glfwWaitEventsTimeout

Since: Added in version 1.0.

◆ glfwWaitEvents()

void glfwWaitEvents ( void )

This function puts the calling thread to sleep until at least one event is available in the event queue. Once one or more events are available, it behaves exactly like glfwPollEvents, i.e. the events in the queue are processed and the function then returns immediately. Processing events will cause the window and input callbacks associated with those events to be called.

Since not all events are associated with callbacks, this function may return without a callback having been called even if you are monitoring all callbacks.

Since: Added in version 2.5.

◆ glfwWaitEventsTimeout()

void glfwWaitEventsTimeout ( double timeout )

This function puts the calling thread to sleep until at least one event is available in the event queue, or until the specified timeout is reached. If one or more events are available, it behaves exactly like glfwPollEvents, i.e. the events in the queue are processed and the function then returns immediately. Processing events will cause the window and input callbacks associated with those events to be called.

The timeout value must be a positive finite number.

Since not all events are associated with callbacks, this function may return without a callback having been called even if you are monitoring all callbacks.

Parameters

[in] timeout The maximum amount of time, in seconds, to wait.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED, GLFW_INVALID_VALUE and GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR.

Reentrancy: This function must not be called from a callback.

Thread safety: This function must only be called from the main thread.

See also: Event processing; glfwPollEvents; glfwWaitEvents

Since: Added in version 3.2.

◆ glfwPostEmptyEvent()

void glfwPostEmptyEvent ( void )

This function posts an empty event from the current thread to the event queue, causing glfwWaitEvents or glfwWaitEventsTimeout to return.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED and GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR.

Thread safety: This function may be called from any thread.

See also: Event processing; glfwWaitEvents; glfwWaitEventsTimeout

Since: Added in version 3.1.

◆ glfwSwapBuffers()

void glfwSwapBuffers ( GLFWwindow * window )

This function swaps the front and back buffers of the specified window when rendering with OpenGL or OpenGL ES. If the swap interval is greater than zero, the GPU driver waits the specified number of screen updates before swapping the buffers.

The specified window must have an OpenGL or OpenGL ES context. Specifying a window without a context will generate a GLFW_NO_WINDOW_CONTEXT error.

This function does not apply to Vulkan. If you are rendering with Vulkan, see vkQueuePresentKHR instead.

Parameters

[in] window The window whose buffers to swap.

Errors: Possible errors include GLFW_NOT_INITIALIZED, GLFW_NO_WINDOW_CONTEXT and GLFW_PLATFORM_ERROR.

Remarks: EGL: The context of the specified window must be current on the calling thread.

Thread safety: This function may be called from any thread.

See also: Buffer swapping; glfwSwapInterval

Since: Added in version 1.0. GLFW 3: Added window handle parameter.
