XSetStipple(3)


NAME

   XSetTile, XSetStipple, XSetTSOrigin - GC convenience routines

SYNTAX

   int XSetTile(Display *display, GC gc, Pixmap tile);

   int XSetStipple(Display *display, GC gc, Pixmap stipple);

   int XSetTSOrigin(Display *display, GC gc, int ts_x_origin, int
          ts_y_origin);

ARGUMENTS

   display   Specifies the connection to the X server.

   gc        Specifies the GC.

   stipple   Specifies the stipple you want to set for the specified GC.

   tile      Specifies the fill tile you want to set for the specified GC.

   ts_x_origin
   ts_y_origin
             Specify the x and y coordinates of the tile and stipple
             origin.

DESCRIPTION

   The XSetTile function sets the fill tile in the specified GC.  The tile
   and GC must have the same depth, or a BadMatch error results.

   XSetTile can generate BadAlloc, BadGC, BadMatch, and BadPixmap errors.

   The XSetStipple function sets the stipple in the specified GC.  The
   stipple must have a depth of one, or a BadMatch error results.

   XSetStipple can generate BadAlloc, BadGC, BadMatch, and BadPixmap
   errors.

   The XSetTSOrigin function sets the tile/stipple origin in the specified
   GC.  When graphics requests call for tiling or stippling, the parent's
   origin will be interpreted relative to whatever destination drawable is
   specified in the graphics request.

   XSetTSOrigin can generate BadAlloc and BadGC errors.

DIAGNOSTICS

   BadAlloc  The server failed to allocate the requested resource or
             server memory.

   BadGC     A value for a GContext argument does not name a defined
             GContext.

   BadMatch  Some argument or pair of arguments has the correct type and
             range but fails to match in some other way required by the
             request.

   BadPixmap A value for a Pixmap argument does not name a defined Pixmap.
