XSetClipOrigin(3)		 XLIB FUNCTIONS 	       XSetClipOrigin(3)

NAME
     XSetClipOrigin, XSetClipMask, XSetClipRectangles - GC convenience routines

SYNTAX
     int   XSetClipOrigin(Display   *display,  GC  gc,	int  clip_x_origin,  int
	    clip_y_origin);

     int XSetClipMask(Display *display, GC gc, Pixmap pixmap);

     int XSetClipRectangles(Display *display,  GC  gc,	int  clip_x_origin,  int
	    clip_y_origin, XRectangle rectangles[], int n, int ordering);

ARGUMENTS
     display   Specifies the connection to the X server.

     clip_x_origin
     clip_y_origin
	       Specify the x and y coordinates of the clip-mask origin.

     gc        Specifies the GC.

     n	       Specifies the number of rectangles.

     ordering  Specifies the ordering relations on the rectangles.  You can pass
	       Unsorted, YSorted, YXSorted, or YXBanded.

     pixmap    Specifies the pixmap or None.

     rectanglesSpecifies an array of rectangles that define the clip-mask.

DESCRIPTION
     The  XSetClipOrigin function sets the clip origin in the specified GC.  The
     clip-mask origin is interpreted relative to the origin of whatever destina-
     tion drawable is specified in the graphics request.

     XSetClipOrigin can generate BadAlloc and BadGC errors.

     The XSetClipMask function sets the clip-mask in the  specified  GC  to  the
     specified	pixmap.  If the clip-mask is set to None, the pixels are are al-
     ways drawn (regardless of the clip-origin).

     XSetClipMask can generate BadAlloc, BadGC, BadMatch, and BadValue errors.

     The XSetClipRectangles function changes the clip-mask in the  specified  GC
     to  the  specified list of rectangles and sets the clip origin.  The output
     is clipped to remain contained within the rectangles.  The  clip-origin  is
     interpreted  relative  to	the  origin  of whatever destination drawable is
     specified in a graphics request.  The rectangle coordinates are interpreted
     relative to the clip-origin.  The rectangles should be nonintersecting,  or
     the  graphics  results will be undefined.	Note that the list of rectangles
     can be empty, which effectively disables output.  This is the  opposite  of
     passing None as the clip-mask in XCreateGC, XChangeGC, and XSetClipMask.

     If  known by the client, ordering relations on the rectangles can be speci-
     fied with the ordering argument.  This may provide faster operation by  the
     server.  If an incorrect ordering is specified, the X server may generate a
     BadMatch error, but it is not required to do so.  If no error is generated,
     the  graphics  results are undefined.  Unsorted means the rectangles are in
     arbitrary order.  YSorted means that the rectangles  are  nondecreasing  in
     their Y origin.  YXSorted additionally constrains YSorted order in that all
     rectangles  with  an  equal  Y  origin are nondecreasing in their X origin.
     YXBanded additionally constrains YXSorted by requiring that, for every pos-
     sible Y scanline, all rectangles that include that scanline have an identi-
     cal Y origins and Y extents.

     XSetClipRectangles can generate BadAlloc, BadGC, BadMatch, and BadValue er-
     rors.

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.

     BadValue  Some  numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted by
	       the request.  Unless a specific range is specified for  an  argu-
	       ment,  the full range defined by the argument's type is accepted.
	       Any argument defined as a set of alternatives can  generate  this
	       error.
