.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
X provides a set of standard cursor shapes in a special font named
|
|
cursor.
|
|
Applications are encouraged to use this interface for their cursors
|
|
because the font can be customized for the individual display type.
|
|
The shape argument specifies which glyph of the standard fonts
|
|
to use.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The hotspot comes from the information stored in the cursor font.
|
|
The initial colors of a cursor are a black foreground and a white
|
|
background (see
|
|
.ZN XRecolorCursor ).
|
|
.LP
|
|
.ZN XCreateFontCursor
|
|
can generate
|
|
.ZN BadAlloc
|
|
and
|
|
.ZN BadValue
|
|
errors.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The
|
|
.ZN XCreatePixmapCursor
|
|
function creates a cursor and returns the cursor ID associated with it.
|
|
The foreground and background RGB values must be specified using
|
|
foreground_color and background_color,
|
|
even if the X server only has a
|
|
.ZN StaticGray
|
|
or
|
|
.ZN GrayScale
|
|
screen.
|
|
The foreground color is used for the pixels set to 1 in the
|
|
source, and the background color is used for the pixels set to 0.
|
|
Both source and mask, if specified, must have depth one (or a
|
|
.ZN BadMatch
|
|
error results) but can have any root.
|
|
The mask argument defines the shape of the cursor.
|
|
The pixels set to 1 in the mask define which source pixels are displayed,
|
|
and the pixels set to 0 define which pixels are ignored.
|
|
If no mask is given,
|
|
all pixels of the source are displayed.
|
|
The mask, if present, must be the same size as the pixmap defined by the
|
|
source argument, or a
|
|
.ZN BadMatch
|
|
error results.
|
|
The hotspot must be a point within the source,
|
|
or a
|
|
.ZN BadMatch
|
|
error results.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The components of the cursor can be transformed arbitrarily to meet
|
|
display limitations.
|
|
The pixmaps can be freed immediately if no further explicit references
|
|
to them are to be made.
|
|
Subsequent drawing in the source or mask pixmap has an undefined effect on the
|
|
cursor.
|
|
The X server might or might not make a copy of the pixmap.
|
|
.LP
|
|
.ZN XCreatePixmapCursor
|
|
can generate
|
|
.ZN BadAlloc
|
|
and
|
|
.ZN BadPixmap
|
|
errors.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The
|
|
.ZN XCreateGlyphCursor
|
|
function is similar to
|
|
.ZN XCreatePixmapCursor
|
|
except that the source and mask bitmaps are obtained from the specified
|
|
font glyphs.
|
|
The source_char must be a defined glyph in source_font,
|
|
or a
|
|
.ZN BadValue
|
|
error results.
|
|
If mask_font is given,
|
|
mask_char must be a defined glyph in mask_font,
|
|
or a
|
|
.ZN BadValue
|
|
error results.
|
|
The mask_font and character are optional.
|
|
The origins of the source_char and mask_char (if defined) glyphs are
|
|
positioned coincidently and define the hotspot.
|
|
The source_char and mask_char need not have the same bounding box metrics,
|
|
and there is no restriction on the placement of the hotspot relative to the bounding
|
|
boxes.
|
|
If no mask_char is given, all pixels of the source are displayed.
|
|
You can free the fonts immediately by calling
|
|
.ZN XFreeFont
|
|
if no further explicit references to them are to be made.
|
|
.LP
|
|
For 2-byte matrix fonts,
|
|
the 16-bit value should be formed with the byte1
|
|
member in the most significant byte and the byte2 member in the
|
|
least significant byte.
|
|
.LP
|
|
.ZN XCreateGlyphCursor
|
|
can generate
|
|
.ZN BadAlloc ,
|
|
.ZN BadFont ,
|
|
and
|
|
.ZN BadValue
|
|
errors.
|
|
.SH DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
.TP 1i
|
|
.ZN BadAlloc
|
|
The server failed to allocate the requested resource or server memory.
|
|
.TP 1i
|
|
.ZN BadFont
|
|
A value for a Font or GContext argument does not name a defined Font.
|
|
.TP 1i
|
|
.ZN BadMatch
|
|
Some argument or pair of arguments has the correct type and range but fails
|
|
to match in some other way required by the request.
|
|
.TP 1i
|
|
.ZN BadPixmap
|
|
A value for a Pixmap argument does not name a defined Pixmap.
|
|
.TP 1i
|
|
.ZN 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.
