The created window is placed on top in the + stacking order with respect to siblings. Any part of the window + that extends outside its parent WINDOW is clipped. The + BORDER-WIDTH for an x:Input-Only window must be zero. + + The coordinate system has the X axis horizontal and the Y axis + vertical with the origin [0, 0] at the upper-left corner. + Coordinates are integral, in terms of pixels, and coincide with + pixel centers. Each window and pixmap has its own coordinate + system. For a window, the origin is inside the border at the + inside, upper-left corner. + + CLASS can be x:Input-Output, x:Input-Only, or x:Copy-From-Parent. + For class x:Input-Output, the VISUAL type and DEPTH must be a + combination supported for the screen. The DEPTH need not be the + same as the parent, but the parent must not be a window of class + x:Input-Only. For an x:Input-Only window, the DEPTH must be zero, + and the VISUAL must be one supported by the screen. + + The returned window will have the attributes specified by + FIELD-NAMEs and VALUE. + + - Function: x:create-window WINDOW POSITION SIZE BORDER-WIDTH BORDER + BACKGROUND + The returned window inherits its depth, class, and visual from its + parent. All other window attributes, except BACKGROUND and + BORDER, have their default values. + + - Function: x:create-pixmap DRAWABLE SIZE DEPTH + - Function: x:create-pixmap DISPLAY SIZE DEPTH + SIZE is a list, vector, or pair of nonzero integers specifying the + width and height desired in the new pixmap. + + X:CREATE-PIXMAP returns a new pixmap of the width, height, and + DEPTH specified. It is valid to pass an x:Input-Only window to the + drawable argument. The DEPTH argument must be one of the depths + supported by the screen of the specified DRAWABLE. + + - Function: x:close WINDOW + Destroys the specified WINDOW as well as all of its subwindows and + causes the X server to generate a DestroyNotify event for each + window. The window should not be used again. If the window + specified by the WINDOW argument is mapped, it is unmapped + automatically. The ordering of the DestroyNotify events is such + that for any given window being destroyed, DestroyNotify is + generated on any inferiors of the window before being generated on + the window itself. The ordering among siblings and across + subhierarchies is not otherwise constrained. If the WINDOW you + specified is a root window, an error is signaled. Destroying a + mapped WINDOW will generate x:Expose events on other windows that + were obscured by the window being destroyed. + + - Function: x:close PIXMAP + Deletes the association between the PIXMAP and its storage. The X + server frees the pixmap storage when there are no references to it. + + - Function: x:window-geometry DRAWABLE + Returns a list of: + + coordinates + `cons' of x and y coordinates that define the location of the + DRAWABLE. For a window, these coordinates specify the + upper-left outer corner relative to its parent's origin. For + pixmaps, these coordinates are always zero. + + size + `cons' of the DRAWABLE's dimensions (width and height). For + a window, these dimensions specify the inside size, not + including the border. + + border-width + The border width in pixels. If the DRAWABLE is a pixmap, + this is zero. + + depth + The depth of the DRAWABLE (bits per pixel for the object). + + - Function: x:window-set! WINDOW FIELD-NAME VALUE ... + Changes the components specified by FIELD-NAMEs for the specified + WINDOW. The restrictions are the same as for `x:create-window'. + The order in which components are verified and altered is server + dependent. If an error occurs, a subset of the components may + have been altered. + +Window Attributes +================= + +The `x:create-window' and `x:window-set!' procedures take five and one +argument (respectively) followed by pairs of arguments, where the first +is one of the property-name symbols (or its top-level value) listed +below; and the second is the value to associate with that property. + + - Attribute: x:CW-Back-Pixmap + Sets the background pixmap of the WINDOW to the specified pixmap. + The background pixmap can immediately be freed if no further + explicit references to it are to be made. If x:Parent-Relative is + specified, the background pixmap of the window's parent is used, + or on the root window, the default background is restored. It is + an error to perform this operation on an x:Input-Only window. If + the background is set to #f or None, the window has no defined + background. + + - Attribute: x:CW-Back-Pixel + Sets the background of the WINDOW to the specified pixel value. + Changing the background does not cause the WINDOW contents to be + changed. It is an error to perform this operation on an + x:Input-Only window. + + - Attribute: x:CW-Border-Pixmap + Sets the border pixmap of the WINDOW to the pixmap you specify. + The border pixmap can be freed if no further explicit references + to it are to be made. If you specify x:Copy-From-Parent, a copy + of the parent window's border pixmap is used. It is an error to + perform this operation on an x:Input-Only WINDOW. + + - Attribute: x:CW-Border-Pixel + Sets the border of the WINDOW to the pixel VALUE. It is an error + to perform this operation on an x:Input-Only window. + + - Attribute: x:CW-Bit-Gravity + - Attribute: x:CW-Win-Gravity + The bit gravity of a window defines which region of the window + should be retained when an x:Input-Output window is resized. The + default value for the bit-gravity attribute is x:Forget-Gravity. + The window gravity of a window allows you to define how the + x:Input-Output or x:Input-Only window should be repositioned if + its parent is resized. The default value for the win-gravity + attribute is x:North-West-Gravity. + + If the inside width or height of a window is not changed and if the + window is moved or its border is changed, then the contents of the + window are not lost but move with the window. Changing the inside + width or height of the window causes its contents to be moved or + lost (depending on the bit-gravity of the window) and causes + children to be reconfigured (depending on their win-gravity). For + a change of width and height, the (x, y) pairs are defined: + + Gravity Direction Coordinates + x:North-West-Gravity (0, 0) + x:North-Gravity (Width/2, 0) + x:North-East-Gravity (Width, 0) + x:West-Gravity (0, Height/2) + x:Center-Gravity (Width/2, Height/2) + x:East-Gravity (Width, Height/2) + x:South-West-Gravity (0, Height) + x:South-Gravity (Width/2, Height) + x:South-East-Gravity (Width, Height) + + When a window with one of these bit-gravity values is resized, the + corresponding pair defines the change in position of each pixel in + the window. When a window with one of these win-gravities has its + parent window resized, the corresponding pair defines the change + in position of the window within the parent. When a window is so + repositioned, a x:Gravity-Notify event is generated (see section + 10.10.5). + + A bit-gravity of x:Static-Gravity indicates that the contents or + origin should not move relative to the origin of the root window. + If the change in size of the window is coupled with a change in + position (x, y), then for bit-gravity the change in position of + each pixel is (-x, -y), and for win-gravity the change in position + of a child when its parent is so resized is (-x, -y). Note that + x:Static-Gravity still only takes effect when the width or height + of the window is changed, not when the window is moved. + + A bit-gravity of x:Forget-Gravity indicates that the window's + contents are always discarded after a size change, even if a + backing store or save under has been requested. The window is + tiled with its background and zero or more x:Expose events are + generated. If no background is defined, the existing screen + contents are not altered. Some X servers may also ignore the + specified bit-gravity and always generate x:Expose events. + + The contents and borders of inferiors are not affected by their + parent's bit-gravity. A server is permitted to ignore the + specified bit-gravity and use x:Forget-Gravity instead. + + A win-gravity of x:Unmap-Gravity is like x:North-West-Gravity (the + window is not moved), except the child is also unmapped when the + parent is resized, and an x:Unmap-Notify event is generated. + + - Attribute: x:CW-Backing-Store + Some implementations of the X server may choose to maintain the + contents of x:Input-Output windows. If the X server maintains the + contents of a window, the off-screen saved pixels are known as + backing store. The backing store advises the X server on what to + do with the contents of a window. The backing-store attribute can + be set to x:Not-Useful (default), x:When-Mapped, or x:Always. A + backing-store attribute of x:Not-Useful advises the X server that + maintaining contents is unnecessary, although some X + implementations may still choose to maintain contents and, + therefore, not generate x:Expose events. A backing-store + attribute of x:When-Mapped advises the X server that maintaining + contents of obscured regions when the window is mapped would be + beneficial. In this case, the server may generate an x:Expose + event when the window is created. A backing-store attribute of + x:Always advises the X server that maintaining contents even when + the window is unmapped would be beneficial. Even if the window is + larger than its parent, this is a request to the X server to + maintain complete contents, not just the region within the parent + window boundaries. While the X server maintains the window's + contents, x:Expose events normally are not generated, but the X + server may stop maintaining contents at any time. + + When the contents of obscured regions of a window are being + maintained, regions obscured by noninferior windows are included + in the destination of graphics requests (and source, when the + window is the source). However, regions obscured by inferior + windows are not included. + + - Attribute: x:CW-Backing-Planes + - Attribute: x:CW-Backing-Pixel + You can set backing planes to indicate (with bits set to 1) which + bit planes of an x:Input-Output window hold dynamic data that must + be preserved in backing store and during save unders. The default + value for the backing-planes attribute is all bits set to 1. You + can set backing pixel to specify what bits to use in planes not + covered by backing planes. The default value for the + backing-pixel attribute is all bits set to 0. The X server is + free to save only the specified bit planes in the backing store or + the save under and is free to regenerate the remaining planes with + the specified pixel value. Any extraneous bits in these values + (that is, those bits beyond the specified depth of the window) may + be simply ignored. If you request backing store or save unders, + you should use these members to minimize the amount of off-screen + memory required to store your window. + + - Attribute: x:CW-Override-Redirect + To control window placement or to add decoration, a window manager + often needs to intercept (redirect) any map or configure request. + Pop-up windows, however, often need to be mapped without a window + manager getting in the way. To control whether an x:Input-Output + or x:Input-Only window is to ignore these structure control + facilities, use the override-redirect flag. + + The override-redirect flag specifies whether map and configure + requests on this window should override a + x:Substructure-Redirect-Mask on the parent. You can set the + override-redirect flag to #t or #f (default). Window managers use + this information to avoid tampering with pop-up windows. + + - Attribute: x:CW-Save-Under + Some server implementations may preserve contents of + x:Input-Output windows under other x:Input-Output windows. This + is not the same as preserving the contents of a window for you. + You may get better visual appeal if transient windows (for + example, pop-up menus) request that the system preserve the screen + contents under them, so the temporarily obscured applications do + not have to repaint. + + You can set the save-under flag to True or False (default). If + save-under is True, the X server is advised that, when this window + is mapped, saving the contents of windows it obscures would be + beneficial. + + - Attribute: x:CW-Event-Mask + The event mask defines which events the client is interested in + for this x:Input-Output or x:Input-Only window (or, for some event + types, inferiors of this window). The event mask is the bitwise + inclusive OR of zero or more of the valid event mask bits. You + can specify that no maskable events are reported by setting + x:No-Event-Mask (default). + + The following table lists the event mask constants you can pass to + the event-mask argument and the circumstances in which you would + want to specify the event mask: + + Event Mask Circumstances + x:No-Event-Mask No events wanted + x:Key-Press-Mask Keyboard down events wanted + x:Key-Release-Mask Keyboard up events wanted + x:Button-Press-Mask Pointer button down events wanted + x:Button-Release-Mask Pointer button up events wanted + x:Enter-Window-Mask Pointer window entry events wanted + x:Leave-Window-Mask Pointer window leave events wanted + x:Pointer-Motion-Mask Pointer motion events wanted + x:Pointer-Motion-Hint-Mask If x:Pointer-Motion-Hint-Mask is + selected in combination with one or + more motion-masks, the X server is + free to send only one x:Motion-Notify + event (with the is_hint member of + the X:Pointer-Moved-Event structure + set to x:Notify-Hint) to the client + for the event window, until either + the key or button state changes, the + pointer leaves the event window, or + the client calls X:Query-Pointer or + X:Get-Motion-Events. The server + still may send x:Motion-Notify + events without is_hint set to + x:Notify-Hint. + x:Button1-Motion-Mask Pointer motion while button 1 down + x:Button2-Motion-Mask Pointer motion while button 2 down + x:Button3-Motion-Mask Pointer motion while button 3 down + x:Button4-Motion-Mask Pointer motion while button 4 down + x:Button5-Motion-Mask Pointer motion while button 5 down + x:Button-Motion-Mask Pointer motion while any button down + x:Keymap-State-Mask Keyboard state wanted at window + entry and focus in + x:Exposure-Mask Any exposure wanted + x:Visibility-Change-Mask Any change in visibility wanted + x:Structure-Notify-Mask Any change in window structure wanted + x:Resize-Redirect-Mask Redirect resize of this window + x:Substructure-Notify-Mask Substructure notification wanted + x:Substructure-Redirect-Mask Redirect structure requests on + children + x:Focus-Change-Mask Any change in input focus wanted + x:Property-Change-Mask Any change in property wanted + x:Colormap-Change-Mask Any change in colormap wanted + x:Owner-Grab-Button-Mask Automatic grabs should activate with + owner_events set to True + + - Attribute: x:CW-Dont-Propagate + The do-not-propagate-mask attribute defines which events should + not be propagated to ancestor windows when no client has the event + type selected in this x:Input-Output or x:Input-Only window. The + do-not-propagate-mask is the bitwise inclusive OR of zero or more + of the following masks: x:Key-Press, x:Key-Release, x:Button-Press, + x:Button-Release, x:Pointer-Motion, x:Button1Motion, + x:Button2Motion, x:Button3Motion, x:Button4Motion, + x:Button5Motion, and x:Button-Motion. You can specify that all + events are propagated by setting x:No-Event-Mask (default). + + - Attribute: x:CW-Colormap + The colormap attribute specifies which colormap best reflects the + true colors of the x:Input-Output window. The colormap must have + the same visual type as the window. X servers capable of + supporting multiple hardware colormaps can use this information, + and window managers can use it for calls to X:Install-Colormap. + You can set the colormap attribute to a colormap or to + x:Copy-From-Parent (default). + + If you set the colormap to x:Copy-From-Parent, the parent window's + colormap is copied and used by its child. However, the child + window must have the same visual type as the parent. The parent + window must not have a colormap of x:None. The colormap is copied + by sharing the colormap object between the child and parent, not + by making a complete copy of the colormap contents. Subsequent + changes to the parent window's colormap attribute do not affect + the child window. + + - Attribute: x:CW-Cursor + The cursor attribute specifies which cursor is to be used when the + pointer is in the x:Input-Output or x:Input-Only window. You can + set the cursor to a cursor or x:None (default). + + If you set the cursor to x:None, the parent's cursor is used when + the pointer is in the x:Input-Output or x:Input-Only window, and + any change in the parent's cursor will cause an immediate change + in the displayed cursor. On the root window, the default cursor + is restored. + + +File: Xlibscm.info, Node: Window Visibility, Next: Graphics Context, Prev: Window, Up: Top + +Window Visibility +***************** + +In X parlance, a window which is hidden even when not obscured by other +windows is "unmapped"; one which shows is "mapped". It is an +unfortunate name-collision with Scheme, and is ingrained in the +attribute names. + + - Function: x:map-window WINDOW + Maps the WINDOW and all of its subwindows that have had map + requests. Mapping a window that has an unmapped ancestor does not + display the window but marks it as eligible for display when the + ancestor becomes mapped. Such a window is called unviewable. + When all its ancestors are mapped, the window becomes viewable and + will be visible on the screen if it is not obscured by another + window. This function has no effect if the WINDOW is already + mapped. + + If the override-redirect of the window is False and if some other + client has selected x:Substructure-Redirect-Mask on the parent + window, then the X server generates a MapRequest event, and the + `x:map-window' function does not map the WINDOW. Otherwise, the + WINDOW is mapped, and the X server generates a MapNotify event. + + If the WINDOW becomes viewable and no earlier contents for it are + remembered, the X server tiles the WINDOW with its background. If + the window's background is undefined, the existing screen contents + are not altered, and the X server generates zero or more x:Expose + events. If backing-store was maintained while the WINDOW was + unmapped, no x:Expose events are generated. If backing-store will + now be maintained, a full-window exposure is always generated. + Otherwise, only visible regions may be reported. Similar tiling + and exposure take place for any newly viewable inferiors. + + If the window is an Input-Output window, `x:map-window' generates + x:Expose events on each Input-Output window that it causes to be + displayed. If the client maps and paints the window and if the + client begins processing events, the window is painted twice. To + avoid this, first ask for x:Expose events and then map the window, + so the client processes input events as usual. The event list + will include x:Expose for each window that has appeared on the + screen. The client's normal response to an x:Expose event should + be to repaint the window. This method usually leads to simpler + programs and to proper interaction with window managers. + + - Function: x:map-raised WINDOW + This procedure is similar to `x:map-window' in that it maps the + WINDOW and all of its subwindows that have had map requests. + However, it also raises the specified WINDOW to the top of the + stack. + + - Function: x:map-subwindows WINDOW + Maps all subwindows of a specified WINDOW in top-to-bottom + stacking order. The X server generates x:Expose events on each + newly displayed window. This may be much more efficient than + mapping many windows one at a time because the server needs to + perform much of the work only once, for all of the windows, rather + than for each window. + + - Function: x:unmap-window WINDOW + Unmaps the specified WINDOW and causes the X server to generate an + UnmapNotify event. If the specified WINDOW is already unmapped, + `x:unmap-window' has no effect. Normal exposure processing on + formerly obscured windows is performed. Any child window will no + longer be visible until another map call is made on the parent. + In other words, the subwindows are still mapped but are not + visible until the parent is mapped. Unmapping a WINDOW will + generate x:Expose events on windows that were formerly obscured by + it. + + - Function: x:unmap-subwindows WINDOW + Unmaps all subwindows for the specified WINDOW in bottom-to-top + stacking order.

The function in a GC defines how the new destination + bits are to be computed from the source bits and the old + destination bits. x:G-Xcopy is typically the most useful because + it will work on a color display, but special applications may use + other functions, particularly in concert with particular planes of + a color display.

The planes attribute is an integer which specifies which + planes of the destination are to be modified, one bit per plane. + A monochrome display has only one plane and will be the least + significant bit of the integer. As planes are added to the + display hardware, they will occupy more significant bits in the + plane mask. + + In graphics operations, given a source and destination pixel, the + result is computed bitwise on corresponding bits of the pixels. + That is, a Boolean operation is performed in each bit plane.

They are simply truncated to the appropriate number of + bits. + + Note that foreground and background are not initialized to any + values likely to be useful in a window. + + - Attribute: x:GC-Line-Width + The line-width is measured in pixels and either can be greater + than or equal to one (wide line) or can be the special value zero + (thin line). + + Thin lines (zero line-width) are one-pixel-wide lines drawn using + an unspecified, device-dependent algorithm. There are only two + constraints on this algorithm. + + * If a line is drawn unclipped from [x1,y1] to [x2,y2] and if + another line is drawn unclipped from [x1+dx,y1+dy] to + [x2+dx,y2+dy], a point [x,y] is touched by drawing the first + line if and only if the point [x+dx,y+dy] is touched by + drawing the second line. + + * The effective set of points comprising a line cannot be + affected by clipping. That is, a point is touched in a + clipped line if and only if the point lies inside the + clipping region and the point would be touched by the line + when drawn unclipped. + + A wide line drawn from [x1,y1] to [x2,y2] always draws the same + pixels as a wide line drawn from [x2,y2] to [x1,y1], not counting + cap-style and join-style. It is recommended that this property be + true for thin lines, but this is not required. A line-width of + zero may differ from a line-width of one in which pixels are + drawn. This permits the use of many manufacturers' line drawing + hardware, which may run many times faster than the more precisely + specified wide lines. + + In general, drawing a thin line will be faster than drawing a wide + line of width one. However, because of their different drawing + algorithms, thin lines may not mix well aesthetically with wide + lines. If it is desirable to obtain precise and uniform results + across all displays, a client should always use a line-width of + one rather than a linewidth of zero. + + - Attribute: x:GC-Line-Style + The line-style defines which sections of a line are drawn: + + x:Line-Solid + The full path of the line is drawn. + + x:Line-Double-Dash + The full path of the line is drawn, but the even dashes are + filled differently from the odd dashes (see fill-style) with + x:Cap-Butt style used where even and odd dashes meet. + + x:Line-On-Off-Dash + Only the even dashes are drawn, and cap-style applies to all + internal ends of the individual dashes, except x:Cap-Not-Last + is treated as x:Cap-Butt. + + - Attribute: x:GC-Cap-Style + The cap-style defines how the endpoints of a path are drawn: + + x:Cap-Not-Last + This is equivalent to x:Cap-Butt except that for a line-width + of zero the final endpoint is not drawn. + + x:Cap-Butt + The line is square at the endpoint (perpendicular to the + slope of the line) with no projection beyond. + + x:Cap-Round + The line has a circular arc with the diameter equal to the + line-width, centered on the endpoint. (This is equivalent to + x:Cap-Butt for line-width of zero). + + x:Cap-Projecting + The line is square at the end, but the path continues beyond + the endpoint for a distance equal to half the line-width. + (This is equivalent to x:Cap-Butt for line-width of zero). + + - Attribute: x:GC-Join-Style + The join-style defines how corners are drawn for wide lines: + + x:Join-Miter + The outer edges of two lines extend to meet at an angle. + However, if the angle is less than 11 degrees, then a + x:Join-Bevel join-style is used instead. + + x:Join-Round + The corner is a circular arc with the diameter equal to the + line-width, centered on the x:Join-point. + + x:Join-Bevel + The corner has x:Cap-Butt endpoint styles with the triangular + notch filled. + + - Attribute: x:GC-Fill-Style + The fill-style defines the contents of the source for line, text, + and fill requests.

A counterclockwise + segment is one that crosses the ray from right to left as observed + from the point. The case where a directed line segment is + coincident with the ray is uninteresting because you can simply + choose a different ray that is not coincident with a segment. + + For both x:Even-Odd-Rule and x:Winding-Rule, a point is infinitely + small, and the path is an infinitely thin line. A pixel is inside + if the center point of the pixel is inside and the center point is + not on the boundary.
