Window.getToplevel

Gets the toplevel window that’s an ancestor of @window.

Any window type but %GDK_WINDOW_CHILD is considered a toplevel window, as is a %GDK_WINDOW_CHILD window that has a root window as parent.

Note that you should use gdk_window_get_effective_toplevel() when you want to get to a window’s toplevel as seen on screen, because gdk_window_get_toplevel() will most likely not do what you expect if there are offscreen windows in the hierarchy.
