GimmeZeroZero windows provide a window border layer separate from the main (inner) window layer. This allows the application to freely render into the window without worrying about the window border and its contents. System gadgets and the window title are placed in the border layer. Application gadgets go into the inner window by default, but may be placed in the border. To position application gadgets in the border layer, the gtyp_gzzgadget flag and the appropriate gadget border flag must be set in the activation field of the gadget. The top left coordinates of the inner window are always (0,0), regardless of the size or contents of the border, thus the name "GimmeZeroZero." The application need not take the border size into account when rendering. The inner window always begins at (0,0) and extends to (GZZWidth,GZZHeight). The GZZWidth and GZZHeight variables are available in the window structure. The gzzmousex and gzzmousey variables provide the position of the mouse relative to the inner window. Note that the mouse positions in idcmp_mousemove events are always relative to the total window, even for GimmeZeroZero windows. Requesters in a GimmeZeroZero window are also positioned relative to the inner window. See the chapter entitled "intuition requesters and alerts," for more information about requester location. To specify a GimmeZeroZero window, set the WFLG_GIMMEZEROZERO flag or the wa_gimmezerozero tag in the openwindowtaglist() call. WARNING! -------- The GimmeZeroZero window uses more system resources than other window types because the window creates a separate layer for the border display. Using multiple GimmeZeroZero windows will quickly degrade performance in the positioning and sizing of windows. Applications should consider using regions as an alternative to GimmeZeroZero windows. See the "layers library" chapter, especially the installclipregion() function, for information on setting up regions to limit graphics display in the window.
