boxfit(6) XScreenSaver manual boxfit(6) NAME boxfit - fills space with a gradient of growing boxes or circles. SYNOPSIS boxfit [--display host:display.screen] [--visual visual] [--window] [--root] [--window-id number] [--delay usecs] [--count int] [--growby int] [--spacing int] [--border int] [--circles | --squares | --random] [--grab] [--peek] [--fps] DESCRIPTION Packs the screen with growing boxes or circles, colored according to a horizontal or vertical gradient. The objects grow until they touch, then stop. When the screen is full, they shrink away and the process restarts. OPTIONS --visual visual Specify which visual to use. Legal values are the name of a visual class, or the id number (decimal or hex) of a specific visual. --window Draw on a newly-created window. This is the default. --root Draw on the root window. --window-id number Draw on the specified window. --delay microseconds How much of a delay should be introduced between steps of the animation. Default 20000, or about 0.02 seconds. --count int How many boxes or circles to animate simultaneously; default 50. Smaller numbers yield larger boxes/circles. --growby int How many pixels the objects should grow by, each frame. De- fault 1. --spacing int How many pixels of space should be left between the objects. Default 1. --border int Thickness of the colored border around each object. Default 1. --circles | --squares | --random Draw circles, squares, or choose randomly (the default). --grab Normally it colors the boxes with a horizontal or vertical gra- dient. If --grab is specified, it will instead load a random image, and color the boxes according to the colors in that im- age. As the picture fills in, some features of the underlying image may become recognisable. When grabbing images, the image will be grabbed from the por- tion of the screen underlying the window, or from the system's video input, or from a random file on disk, as indicated by the grabDesktopImages, grabVideoFrames, and chooseRandomImages op- tions in the ~/.xscreensaver file; see xscreensaver-settings(1) for more details. --peek This option says to briefly show you the underlying image be- fore beginning. The default is not to show the unadulterated image at all. (This only has an effect when --grab is used.) --fps Display the current frame rate and CPU load. ENVIRONMENT DISPLAY to get the default host and display number. XENVIRONMENT to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property. XSCREENSAVER_WINDOW The window ID to use with --root. SEE ALSO X(1), xscreensaver(1) xscreensaver-settings(1), xscreensaver-getim- age(6) COPYRIGHT Copyright (C) 2005 by Jamie Zawinski.
