.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
\fIXSetDeviceMode\fP
|
|
request changes the mode of an input device that is capable of reporting
|
|
either absolute positional information or relative motion information.
|
|
Not all input devices are capable of reporting motion data, and not
|
|
all are capable of changing modes from \fIAbsolute\fP to \fIRelative\fP.
|
|
.LP

.SH DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
.TP 12
|
|
\fIBadDevice\fP
|
|
An invalid device was specified. The specified device does not exist or has
|
|
not been opened by this client via \fIXOpenInputDevice\fP. This error may
|
|
also occur if some other client has caused the specified device to become
|
|
the X keyboard or X pointer device via the \fIXChangeKeyboardDevice\fP or
|
|
\fIXChangePointerDevice\fP requests.
|
|
.TP 12
|
|
\fIBadMatch\fP
|
|
This error may occur if an \fIXSetDeviceMode\fP request is made
|
|
specifying a device that has no valuators and reports no axes of motion.
|
|
.TP 12
|
|
\fIBadMode\fP
|
|
An invalid mode was specified. This error will also be returned if the
|
|
specified device is not capable of supporting the \fIXSetDeviceMode\fP
|
|
request.
