NAME
Set_Geometry request - set a tool's on-screen geometry
SYNOPSIS
Set_Geometry(inout width w,
inout height h,
inout xOffset x,
inout yOffset y
[in messageID commission]);
DESCRIPTION
The Set_Geometry request sets 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. If any of these
arguments are unset, that part of the geometry need not be
changed. The return values are the actual new values, in
case they differ from the requested new values.
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 Set_Geometry request.
EXAMPLES
The Set_Geometry request can be sent as in the following
example:
Tt_message msg = tttk_message_create(0, TT_REQUEST, TT_SESSION,
the_recipient_procid, TTDT_SET_GEOMETRY,
my_callback);
tt_message_iarg_add(msg, TT_INOUT, Tttk_width, 500);
tt_message_iarg_add(msg, TT_INOUT, Tttk_height, 500);
tt_message_arg_add(msg, TT_INOUT, Tttk_xoffset, 0); /* no value */
tt_message_arg_add(msg, TT_INOUT, Tttk_yoffset, 0); /* no value */
tt_message_send(msg);
