# Syntax

set the windowManagerPlace to {true | false}

# Examples

set the windowManagerPlace to false

# Description

Use the windowManagerPlace property to determine how the stack window is placed on Unix.

If the windowManagerPlace property is true, the window manager uses the "mwm" resources "clientAutoPlace" and "interactivePlacement" to set the location of the window when the stack is first opened.

If the windowManagerPlace is false, the stack rectangle property is used to set its location.

The setting of this property has no effect on Mac OS or Windows systems.
