XSetDeviceButtonMapping(3X11) X11 SDE 5.4R3.00 XSetDeviceButtonMapping(3X11)


NAME
       XSetDeviceButtonMapping, XGetDeviceButtonMapping - query or change
       device button mappings

SYNTAX
       int XSetDeviceButtonMapping(display, device, map, nmap)
             Display *display;
             XDevice *device;
             unsigned char map[];
             int nmap;

       int XGetDeviceButtonMapping(display, device, mapreturn, nmap)
             Display *display;
             XDevice *device;
             unsigned char mapreturn[];
             int nmap;

ARGUMENTS
       display     Specifies the connection to the X server.

       device      Specifies the device whose button mapping is to be
                   queried or changed.

       map         Specifies the mapping list.

       mapreturn  Returns the mapping list.

       nmap        Specifies the number of items in the mapping list.

DESCRIPTION
       The XSetDeviceButtonMapping request sets the mapping of the specified
       device.  If it succeeds, the X server generates a DeviceMappingNotify
       event, and XSetDeviceButtonMapping returns MappingSuccess.  Element
       map[i] defines the logical button number for the physical button i+1.
       The length of the list must be the same as XGetDeviceButtonMapping
       would return, or a BadValue error results.  A zero element disables a
       button, and elements are not restricted in value by the number of
       physical buttons.  However, no two elements can have the same nonzero
       value, or a BadValue error results.  If any of the buttons to be
       altered are logically in the down state, XSetDeviceButtonMapping
       returns MappingBusy, and the mapping is not changed.

       XSetDeviceButtonMapping can generate BadDevice, BadMatch, and
       BadValue errors.

       The XGetDeviceButtonMapping request returns the current mapping of
       the specified device.  Buttons are numbered starting from one.
       XGetDeviceButtonMapping returns the number of physical buttons
       actually on the device.  The nominal mapping for a device is
       map[i]=i+1.  The nmap argument specifies the length of the array
       where the device mapping is returned, and only the first nmap
       elements are returned in map_return.

       XGetDeviceButtonMapping can generate BadDevice or BadMatch errors.

DIAGNOSTICS
       BadDevice   An invalid device was specified.  The specified device
                   does not exist or has not been opened by this client via
                   XOpenInputDevice.  This error may also occur if the
                   specified device is the X keyboard or X pointer device.

       BadMatch    This error may occur if an XGetDeviceButtonMapping or
                   XSetDeviceButtonMapping request was made specifying a
                   device that has no buttons.

       BadValue    Some numeric value falls outside the range of values
                   accepted by the request.  Unless a specific range is
                   specified for an argument, the full range defined by the
                   argument's type is accepted.  Any argument defined as a
                   set of alternatives can generate this error.
