.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.ZN XGrabKey
|
|
function establishes a passive grab on the keyboard.
|
|
In the future,
|
|
the keyboard is actively grabbed (as for
|
|
.ZN XGrabKeyboard ),
|
|
the last-keyboard-grab time is set to the time at which the key was pressed
|
|
(as transmitted in the
|
|
.ZN KeyPress
|
|
event), and the
|
|
.ZN KeyPress
|
|
event is reported if all of the following conditions are true:
|
|
.IP \(bu 5
|
|
The keyboard is not grabbed and the specified key
|
|
(which can itself be a modifier key) is logically pressed
|
|
when the specified modifier keys are logically down,
|
|
and no other modifier keys are logically down.
|
|
.IP \(bu 5
|
|
Either the grab_window is an ancestor of (or is) the focus window,
|
|
or the grab_window is a descendant of the focus window and contains the pointer.
|
|
.IP \(bu 5
|
|
A passive grab on the same key combination does not exist
|
|
on any ancestor of grab_window.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The interpretation of the remaining arguments is as for
|
|
.ZN XGrabKeyboard .
|
|
The active grab is terminated automatically when the logical state of the
|
|
keyboard has the specified key released
|
|
(independent of the logical state of the modifier keys),
|
|
at which point a
|
|
.ZN KeyRelease
|
|
event is reported to the grabbing window.
|
|
.LP
|
|
Note that the logical state of a device (as seen by client applications)
|
|
may lag the physical state if device event processing is frozen.
|
|
.LP
|
|
A modifiers argument of
|
|
.ZN AnyModifier
|
|
is equivalent to issuing the request for all
|
|
possible modifier combinations (including the combination of no
|
|
modifiers).
|
|
It is not required that all modifiers specified have
|
|
currently assigned KeyCodes.
|
|
A keycode argument of
|
|
.ZN AnyKey
|
|
is equivalent to issuing
|
|
the request for all possible KeyCodes.
|
|
Otherwise, the specified keycode must be in
|
|
the range specified by min_keycode and max_keycode in the connection
|
|
setup,
|
|
or a
|
|
.ZN BadValue
|
|
error results.
|
|
.LP
|
|
If some other client has issued a
|
|
.ZN XGrabKey
|
|
with the same key combination on the same window, a
|
|
.ZN BadAccess
|
|
error results.
|
|
When using
|
|
.ZN AnyModifier
|
|
or
|
|
.ZN AnyKey ,
|
|
the request fails completely,
|
|
and a
|
|
.ZN BadAccess
|
|
error results (no grabs are established)
|
|
if there is a conflicting grab for any combination.
|
|
.LP
|
|
.ZN XGrabKey
|
|
can generate
|
|
.ZN BadAccess ,
|
|
.ZN BadValue ,
|
|
and
|
|
.ZN BadWindow
|
|
errors.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The
|
|
.ZN XUngrabKey
|
|
function releases the key combination on the specified window if it was grabbed
|
|
by this client.
|
|
It has no effect on an active grab.
|
|
A modifiers of
|
|
.ZN AnyModifier
|
|
is equivalent to issuing
|
|
the request for all possible modifier combinations
|
|
(including the combination of no modifiers).
|
|
A keycode argument of
|
|
.ZN AnyKey
|
|
is equivalent to issuing the request for all possible key codes.
|
|
.LP
|
|
.ZN XUngrabKey
|
|
can generate
|
|
.ZN BadValue
|
|
and
|
|
.ZN BadWindow
|
|
error.
|
|
.SH DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
.TP 1i
|
|
.ZN BadAccess
|
|
A client attempted
|
|
to grab a key/button combination already grabbed by another client.
|
|
.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.
|
|
.TP 1i
|
|
.ZN BadWindow
|
|
A value for a Window argument does not name a defined Window.
