ImageByteOrder(XS) X Version 11 (Release 5) ImageByteOrder(XS)
6 January 1993
Name
ImageByteOrder - image format functions and macros
Syntax
XPixmapFormatValues *XListPixmapFormats(display, count_return)
Display *display;
int *count_return;
ImageByteOrder(display)
BitmapBitOrder(display)
BitmapPad(display)
BitmapUnit(display)
DisplayHeight(display, screen_number)
DisplayHeightMM(display, screen_number)
DisplayWidth(display, screen_number)
DisplayWidthMM(display, screen_number)
Arguments
display Specifies the connection to the X server.
countreturn Returns the number of pixmap formats that are supported by
the display.
screennumber Specifies the appropriate screen number on the host
server.
Description
The XListPixmapFormats function returns an array of XPixmapFormatValues
structures that describe the types of Z format images supported by the
specified display. If insufficient memory is available, XListPixmapFor-
mats returns NULL. To free the allocated storage for the XPixmapFormat-
Values structures, use XFree.
The ImageByteOrder macro specifies the required byte order for images for
each scanline unit in XY format (bitmap) or for each pixel value in Z
format.
The BitmapBitOrder macro returns ``LSBFirst'' or ``MSBFirst'' to indicate
whether the leftmost bit in the bitmap as displayed on the screen is the
least or most significant bit in the unit.
The BitmapPad macro returns the number of bits that each scanline must be
padded.
The BitmapUnit macro returns the size of a bitmap's scanline unit in
bits.
The DisplayHeight macro returns the height of the specified screen in
pixels.
The DisplayHeightMM macro returns the height of the specified screen in
millimeters.
The DisplayWidth macro returns the width of the screen in pixels.
The DisplayWidthMM macro returns the width of the specified screen in
millimeters.
Structures
The XPixmapFormatValues structure provides an interface to the pixmap
format information that is returned at the time of a connection setup.
It contains:
typedef struct {
int depth;
int bits_per_pixel;
int scanline_pad;
} XPixmapFormatValues;
