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, un-
	      signed int *height_return);

       Status XQueryBestStipple(Display	*display, Drawable  which_screen,  un-
	      signed  int  width, unsigned int height, unsigned	int *width_re-
	      turn, 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
       specified size.	For CursorShape, this is the largest size that can  be
       fully  displayed	 on  the  screen specified by which_screen.  For Tile-
       Shape, 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 Tile-
       Shape 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  win-
       dow 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 win-
       dow class and depth.  If	an InputOnly window is used as the drawable, a
       BadMatch	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  Win-
		 dow 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
		 argument, the full range defined by the  argument's  type  is
		 accepted.   Any argument defined as a set of alternatives can
		 generate this error.
