MMAND REFERENXGetWindowAttributes(3X11) y_return Return the x and y coordinates that define the location of the drawable. For a window, these coordinates specify the upper-left outer corner relative to its parent's origin. For pixmaps, these coordinates are always zero. DESCRIPTION The XGetWindowAttributes function returns the current attributes for the specified window to an XWindowAttributes structure. XGetWindowAttributes can generate BadDrawable and BadWindow errors. The XGetGeometry function returns the root window and the current geometry of the drawable. The geometry of the drawable includes the x and y coordinates, width and height, border width, and depth. These are described in the argument list. It is legal to pass to this function a window whose class is InputOnly. DIAGNOSTICS BadDrawable A value for a Drawable argument does not name a defined Window or Pixmap. BadWindow A value for a Window argument does not name a defined Window. SEE ALSO XQueryPointer(3x11), XQueryTree(3x11) Xlib - C Language X Interface X Version 11 1 September 1988 2
