Enum Class Window.Type

All Implemented Interfaces:

Enclosing class:
Window

public static enum Window.Type extends Enum<Window.Type>
Enumeration of available window types. A window type defines the generic visual appearance and behavior of a top-level window. For example, the type may affect the kind of decorations of a decorated Frame or Dialog instance.

Some platforms may not fully support a certain window type. Depending on the level of support, some properties of the window type may be disobeyed.

    • NORMAL

      public static final Window.Type NORMAL
      Represents a normal window. This is the default type for objects of the Window class or its descendants. Use this type for regular top-level windows.
    • UTILITY

      public static final Window.Type UTILITY
      Represents a utility window. A utility window is usually a small window such as a toolbar or a palette. The native system may render the window with smaller title-bar if the window is either a Frame or a Dialog object, and if it has its decorations enabled.
