XkbSAPtrDfltValue(3)


NAME

   XkbSAPtrDfltValue  -  Returns  the valueXXX field of act converted to a
   signed int

SYNOPSIS

   int XkbSAPtrDfltValue (XkbAction act);

ARGUMENTS

   - act  action from which to extract group

DESCRIPTION

   Actions associated  with  the  XkbPtrDfltAction  structure  change  the
   mk_dflt_btn attribute of the MouseKeys control.

   If the MouseKeys control is not enabled, KeyPress and KeyRelease events
   are treated as though the action  is  XkbSA_NoAction.  Otherwise,  this
   action changes the mk_dflt_btn attribute of the MouseKeys control.

   The  type  field  of  the  XkbPtrDfltAction  structure should always be
   XkbSA_SetPtrDflt.

   The flags field is composed of the bitwise inclusive OR of  the  values
   shown in Table 1 (currently there is only one value defined).

                    Table 1 Pointer Default Flags
   
   Flag                    Meaning
   
   XkbSA_DfltBtnAbsolute   If  set,  the  value field represents an
                           absolute pointer button. Otherwise,  the
                           value  field represents the amount to be
                           added to the current default button.

   The affect field specifies what changes as a result of this action. The
   only valid value for the affect field is XkbSA_AffectDfltBtn.

   The valueXXX field is a signed character that represents the new button
   value for the  mk_dflt_btn  attribute  of  the  MouseKeys  control.  If
   XkbSA_DfltBtnAbsolute is set in flags, valueXXX specifies the button to
   be used; otherwise, valueXXX specifies the amount to be  added  to  the
   current  default  button.  In  either  case, illegal button choices are
   wrapped back around into range. Xkb provides macros, to convert between
   the integer and signed character values in XkbPtrDfltAction structures.

   XkbSAPtrDfltValue  returns  the  valueXXX  field  of act converted to a
   signed int.
