[PyQt] Re: How to set some attributes to the Application Window

["Gustavo A. Dí­az"]

Hi David, Glad to see one response!! at least a "I don't know how to do
it will be enough for me... and for every user who post something in
this list....

Now, I was digging a little on
http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/1.3/ar01s05.html which
correspond setting properties to the X desktop, which for sure will be
python-xlib to use this.

On one QT forum i found:
http://www.qtcentre.org/forum/p-widgets-on-bottom-post47771/postcount4.html
But since i don't know much about C++ (and i don't care to learn it) is
hard for me to translate entirely to PyQT.

So i will see how i can handle this...

Anyway, thanks...
