Re: Popup window for alert

You can use GdkWindowTypeHint value to set window decoration, the gtk_window_set_type_hint().
If you want to the window is not deletable, use gtk_window_set_deletable(). For example:

...
gtk_window_set_type_hint (window, GDK_WINDOW_TYPE_HINT_DIALOG);
gtk_window_set_deletable (window, FALSE);
...

Try to call them before showing the window.

I would like a popup window with a black line on its border in which I can
put a label to alert the user to a failure condition.  A Dialog doesn't
work because the appearance and disappearance of the window is entirely
under program control.  A WINDOW_POPUP doesn't work because it lacks the
black line on its border (even when I set decorate).  A WINDOW_TOPLEVEL is
almost right, but I would prefer that the destroy button and the window
menu button not appear -- not to mention the title bar at the top.  Is
there a way to make any of these things disappear?
