   xvobject object)

INPUT

OUTPUT

none

RETURN VALUE

none

DESCRIPTION

Causes the specified GUI or visual object to have its geometry unmanaged by its parent. Unmanaging an unmapped object means that it does not use resources of the X server, freeing them for use by other objects. Furthermore, if the unmapped object does not require management by its parent, the calling application will be able to manage currently mapped objects more efficiently. Note that an object cannot be made visible if it is not managed.
