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


NAME
       XWarpPointer - move pointer

SYNTAX
       XWarpPointer(display, srcw, destw, srcx, srcy, srcwidth,
       srcheight, destx,
                       desty)
               Display *display;
               Window srcw, destw;
               int srcx, srcy;
               unsigned int srcwidth, srcheight;
               int destx, desty;

ARGUMENTS
       destw    Specifies the destination window or None.

       destx
       desty    Specify the x and y coordinates within the destination
                 window.

       display   Specifies the connection to the X server.

       srcx
       srcy
       srcwidth
       srcheight
                 Specify a rectangle in the source window.

       srcw     Specifies the source window or None.

DESCRIPTION
       If dest_w is None, XWarpPointer moves the pointer by the offsets
       (dest_x, dest_y) relative to the current position of the pointer.  If
       dest_w is a window, XWarpPointer moves the pointer to the offsets
       (dest_x, dest_y) relative to the origin of dest_w.  However, if src_w
       is a window, the move only takes place if the window src_w contains
       the pointer and if the specified rectangle of src_w contains the
       pointer.

       The src_x and src_y coordinates are relative to the origin of src_w.
       If src_height is zero, it is replaced with the current height of
       src_w minus src_y.  If src_width is zero, it is replaced with the
       current width of src_w minus src_x.

       There is seldom any reason for calling this function.  The pointer
       should normally be left to the user.  If you do use this function,
       however, it generates events just as if the user had instantaneously
       moved the pointer from one position to another.  Note that you cannot
       use XWarpPointer to move the pointer outside the confine_to window of
       an active pointer grab.  An attempt to do so will only move the
       pointer as far as the closest edge of the confine_to window.

       XWarpPointer can generate a BadWindow error.
