.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.B XChangePointerControl
|
|
function defines how the pointing device moves.
|
|
The acceleration, expressed as a fraction, is a
|
|
multiplier for movement.
|
|
For example,
|
|
specifying 3/1 means the pointer moves three times as fast as normal.
|
|
The fraction may be rounded arbitrarily by the X server.
|
|
Acceleration
|
|
only takes effect if the pointer moves more than threshold pixels at
|
|
once and only applies to the amount beyond the value in the threshold argument.
|
|
Setting a value to \-1 restores the default.
|
|
The values of the do_accel and do_threshold arguments must be
|
|
.B True
|
|
for the pointer values to be set,
|
|
or the parameters are unchanged.
|
|
Negative values (other than \-1) generate a
|
|
.B BadValue
|
|
error, as does a zero value
|
|
for the accel_denominator argument.
|
|
.LP
|
|
.B XChangePointerControl
|
|
can generate a
|
|
.B BadValue
|
|
error.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The
|
|
.B XGetPointerControl
|
|
function returns the pointer's current acceleration multiplier
|
|
and acceleration threshold.
|
|
.SH DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
.TP 1i
|
|
.B 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.
