XtGetMultiClickTime(1)

 

Name

XtSetMultiClickTime — set the multi-click time dynamically. 

Synopsis

void XtSetMultiClickTime(dpy, time)

      Display ∗display;
      int time;

Arguments

displaySpecifies the display connection. 

timeSpecifies the multi-click time in milliseconds. 

Description

XtSetMultiClickTime sets the time interval used by the translation manager to determine when multiple events are interpreted as a repeated event.  When a repeat count is specified in a translation entry the time interval between arrival of each pair of repeated events (e.g., between two ButtonPress events) must be less than the multi-click time in order for the translation actions to be taken. 

Translation table entries may specify actions that are taken when two or more identical events occur consecutively, separated by a short time interval called the multi-click time.  The multi-click time value can be specified as an application resource with name multiClickTime and class MultiClickTime; the multi-click time value can also be modified dynamically by the application.  The multi-click time is unique for each Display and is retrieved from the resource database by XtDisplayInitialize.  If no value is specified, the initial value is 200 milliseconds.
