XDrawRectangle(3X11) COMMAND REFERENCE XDrawRectangle(3X11)
NAME
XDrawRectangle, XDrawRectangles - draw rectangles
SYNOPSIS
XDrawRectangle(display, d, gc, x, y, width, height)
Display *display;
Drawable d;
GC gc;
int x, y;
unsigned int width, height;
XDrawRectangles(display, d, gc, rectangles, nrectangles)
Display *display;
Drawable d;
GC gc;
XRectangle rectangles[];
int nrectangles;
ARGUMENTS
d Specifies the drawable.
display Specifies the connection to the X server.
gc Specifies the GC.
nrectangles
Specifies the number of rectangles in the array.
rectangles
Specifies a pointer to an array of rectangles.
width
height Specify the width and height, which specify the
dimensions of the rectangle.
x
y Specify the x and y coordinates, which specify the
upper-left corner of the rectangle.
DESCRIPTION
The XDrawRectangle and XDrawRectangles functions draw the
outlines of the specified rectangle or rectangles as if a
five-point PolyLine protocol request were specified for each
rectangle:
[x,y] [x+width,y] [x+width,y+height] [x,y+height] [x,y]
For the specified rectangle or rectangles, these functions
do not draw a pixel more than once. XDrawRectangles draws
the rectangles in the order listed in the array. If
rectangles intersect, the intersecting pixels are drawn
multiple times.

XDrawRectangle(3X11) COMMAND REFERENCE XDrawRectangle(3X11)
Both functions use these GC components: function, plane-
mask, line-width, line-style, join-style, fill-style,
subwindow-mode, clip-x-origin, clip-y-origin, and clip-mask.
They also use these GC mode-dependent components:
foreground, background, tile, stipple, tile-stipple-x-
origin, tile-stipple-y-origin, dash-offset, and dash-list.
XDrawRectangle and XDrawRectangles can generate BadDrawable,
BadGC, and BadMatch errors.
DIAGNOSTICS
BadDrawable
A value for a Drawable argument does not name a
defined Window or Pixmap.
BadGC A value for a GContext argument does not name a
defined GContext.
BadMatch An InputOnly window is used as a Drawable.
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.
