Get_Geometry(4)




Get_Geometry(4)	 DEVICES AND NETWORK INTERFACES	  Get_Geometry(4)

NAME
     Get_Geometry request - get	a tool's on-screen geometry

SYNOPSIS
     Get_Geometry(out width w,
		  out height h,
		  out xOffset x,
		  out yOffset y
		  [in messageID	commission]);

DESCRIPTION
     The Get_Geometry request reports the on-screen  geometry  of
     the  optionally specified window, or of the window	primarily
     associated	with the recipient procid (if no window	is speci-
     fied).

     The w, h, x and y arguments are integer geometry values,  in
     pixels,  representing  width,  height,  x-coordinate  and y-
     coordinate, respectively.	Negative offset	values are inter-
     preted according to the X11(7) man	page.

     The commission argument is	the ID of the ongoing request, if
     any,  that	 resulted  in the creation of the window in ques-
     tion.

APPLICATION USAGE
     The ttdt_session_join(3), and ttdt_message_accept(3),  func-
     tions  can	 be  used by Xt	applications to	register for, and
     transparently  process,  the  Get_Geometry	 request.   Also,
     Get_Geometry can be sent by ttdt_sender_imprint_on(3).

SEE ALSO
     ttdt_message_accept(3), ttdt_sender_imprint_on(3),
     ttdt_session_join(3); Set_Geometry	request.
