X Window System
Stacking window managers under the X Window System have the same limitations as any other stacking window manager on any other platform except one: they are fully interchangeable. With the addition of XComposite, this parenting information may be used in different ways, including the implementation of compositing window managers, or ignored as the case may be with tiling window managers, but regardless of its presence or absence full application support is maintained, allowing virtually all programs written for one window manager to work seamlessly with any other. The following window managers provide stacking window functionality:
