<a name="Description-20"></a>
<h4 class="unnumberedsubsec">Description</h4>
<p>If the <i>belowThis</i> argument is omitted then the command lowers
<i>window</i> so that it is below all of its siblings in the stacking
order (it will be obscured by any siblings that overlap it and
will not obscure any siblings).
If <i>belowThis</i> is specified then it must be the path name of
a window that is either a sibling of <i>window</i> or the descendant
of a sibling of <i>window</i>.
In this case the <b>lower</b> command will insert
<i>window</i><span class="roman"> into the stacking order just below </span><i>belowThis</i>
(or the ancestor of <i>belowThis</i><span class="roman"> that is a sibling of </span><i>window</i>);
this could end up either raising or lowering <i>window</i>.
