XQueryBestSize(3)		 XLIB FUNCTIONS 	       XQueryBestSize(3)

NAME
     XQueryBestSize,  XQueryBestTile,  XQueryBestStipple  -  determine efficient
     sizes

SYNTAX
     Status XQueryBestSize(Display *display, int class,  Drawable  which_screen,
	    unsigned int width, unsigned int height, unsigned int *width_return,
	    unsigned int *height_return);

     Status XQueryBestTile(Display *display, Drawable which_screen, unsigned int
	    width, unsigned int height, unsigned int *width_return, unsigned int
	    *height_return);

     Status  XQueryBestStipple(Display *display, Drawable which_screen, unsigned
	    int width, unsigned int height, unsigned int *width_return, unsigned
	    int *height_return);

ARGUMENTS
     class     Specifies the class that you are interested  in.   You  can  pass
	       TileShape, CursorShape, or StippleShape.

     display   Specifies the connection to the X server.

     width
     height    Specify the width and height.

     which_screen
	       Specifies any drawable on the screen.

     width_return
     height_return
	       Return  the  width and height of the object best supported by the
	       display hardware.

DESCRIPTION
     The XQueryBestSize function returns the best or closest size to the  speci-
     fied  size.   For	CursorShape,  this is the largest size that can be fully
     displayed on the screen specified by which_screen.  For TileShape, this  is
     the  size	that  can  be tiled fastest.  For StippleShape, this is the size
     that can be stippled fastest.  For CursorShape, the drawable indicates  the
     desired screen.  For TileShape and StippleShape, the drawable indicates the
     screen and possibly the window class and depth.  An InputOnly window cannot
     be  used as the drawable for TileShape or StippleShape, or a BadMatch error
     results.

     XQueryBestSize can generate BadDrawable, BadMatch, and BadValue errors.

     The XQueryBestTile function returns the best or closest size, that is,  the
     size  that  can  be  tiled fastest on the screen specified by which_screen.
     The drawable indicates the screen and possibly the window class and  depth.
     If an InputOnly window is used as the drawable, a BadMatch error results.

     XQueryBestTile can generate BadDrawable and BadMatch errors.

     The  XQueryBestStipple  function returns the best or closest size, that is,
     the  size	that  can  be  stippled  fastest  on  the  screen  specified  by
     which_screen.   The  drawable  indicates the screen and possibly the window
     class and depth.  If an InputOnly window is used as the  drawable,  a  Bad-
     Match error results.

     XQueryBestStipple can generate BadDrawable and BadMatch errors.

DIAGNOSTICS
     BadMatch  An InputOnly window is used as a Drawable.

     BadDrawable
	       A value for a Drawable argument does not name a defined Window or
	       Pixmap.

     BadMatch  The values do not exist for an InputOnly window.

     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.
