XTranslateCoordinates(3X11) X11 SDE 5.4R3.00 XTranslateCoordinates(3X11)
NAME
XTranslateCoordinates - translate window coordinates
SYNTAX
Bool XTranslateCoordinates(display, srcw, destw, srcx, srcy,
destxreturn,
destyreturn, childreturn)
Display *display;
Window srcw, destw;
int srcx, srcy;
int *destxreturn, *destyreturn;
Window *childreturn;
ARGUMENTS
childreturn
Returns the child if the coordinates are contained in a
mapped child of the destination window.
destw Specifies the destination window.
destxreturn
destyreturn
Return the x and y coordinates within the destination
window.
display Specifies the connection to the X server.
srcw Specifies the source window.
srcx
srcy Specify the x and y coordinates within the source window.
DESCRIPTION
If XTranslateCoordinates returns True, it takes the src_x and src_y
coordinates relative to the source window's origin and returns these
coordinates to dest_x_return and dest_y_return relative to the
destination window's origin. If XTranslateCoordinates returns False,
src_w and dest_w are on different screens, and dest_x_return and
dest_y_return are zero. If the coordinates are contained in a mapped
child of dest_w, that child is returned to child_return. Otherwise,
child_return is set to None.
XTranslateCoordinates can generate a BadWindow error.
DIAGNOSTICS
BadWindow A value for a Window argument does not name a defined
Window.
