XCopyArea(3X11)		XLIB FUNCTIONS	  XCopyArea(3X11)

NAME
       XCopyArea, XCopyPlane - copy areas

SYNTAX
       XCopyArea(display, src, dest, gc, src_x, src_y, width,
       height,	dest_x, dest_y)
	     Display *display;
	     Drawable src, dest;
	     GC gc;
	     int src_x, src_y;
	     unsigned int width, height;
	     int dest_x, dest_y;

       XCopyPlane(display, src, dest, gc, src_x, src_y, width,
       height, dest_x, dest_y, plane)
	     Display *display;
	     Drawable src, dest;
	     GC gc;
	     int src_x, src_y;
	     unsigned int width, height;
	     int dest_x, dest_y;
	     unsigned long plane;

ARGUMENTS
       dest_x
       dest_y	Specify the x and y coordinates, which are rela-
		 tive to the origin of the destination rectangle
		 and specify its upper-left corner.

       display	Specifies the connection to the X server.

       gc	Specifies the GC.

       plane	Specifies the bit plane.  You must set exactly
		 one bit to 1.

       src
       dest	Specify the source and destination rectangles to
		 be combined.

       src_x
       src_y	Specify the x and y coordinates, which are rela-
		 tive to the origin of the source rectangle and
		 specify its upper-left corner.

       width
       height	Specify the width and height, which are the
		 dimensions of both the source and destination
		 rectangles.

DESCRIPTION
       The XCopyArea function combines the specified rectangle of
       src with the specified rectangle of dest.  The drawables
       must have the same root and depth, or a BadMatch error

       results.

       If regions of the source rectangle are obscured and have
       not been retained in backing store or if regions outside
       the boundaries of the source drawable are specified, those
       regions are not copied.	Instead, the following occurs on
       all corresponding destination regions that are either vis-
       ible or are retained in backing store.  If the destination
       is a window with a background other than None, correspond-
       ing regions of the destination are tiled with that back-
       ground (with plane-mask of all ones and GXcopy function).
       Regardless of tiling or whether the destination is a win-
       dow or a pixmap, if graphics-exposures is True, then
       GraphicsExpose events for all corresponding destination
       regions are generated.  If graphics-exposures is True but
       no GraphicsExpose events are generated, a NoExpose event
       is generated.  Note that by default graphics-exposures is
       True in new GCs.

       This function uses these GC components: function, plane-
       mask, subwindow-mode, graphics-exposures, clip-x-origin,
       clip-y-origin, and clip-mask.

       XCopyArea can generate BadDrawable, BadGC, and BadMatch
       errors.

       The XCopyPlane function uses a single bit plane of the
       specified source rectangle combined with the specified GC
       to modify the specified rectangle of dest.  The drawables
       must have the same root but need not have the same depth.
       If the drawables do not have the same root, a BadMatch
       error results.  If plane does not have exactly one bit set
       to 1 and the value of plane is not less than %2 sup n%,
       where n is the depth of src, a BadValue error results.

       Effectively, XCopyPlane forms a pixmap of the same depth
       as the rectangle of dest and with a size specified by the
       source region.  It uses the foreground/background pixels
       in the GC (foreground everywhere the bit plane in src con-
       tains a bit set to 1, background everywhere the bit plane
       in src contains a bit set to 0) and the equivalent of a
       CopyArea protocol request is performed with all the same
       exposure semantics.  This can also be thought of as using
       the specified region of the source bit plane as a stipple
       with a fill-style of FillOpaqueStippled for filling a
       rectangular area of the destination.

       This function uses these GC components: function, plane-
       mask, foreground, background, subwindow-mode, graphics-
       exposures, clip-x-origin, clip-y-origin, and clip-mask.

       XCopyPlane can generate BadDrawable, BadGC, BadMatch, and
       BadValue 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 cor-
		 rect type and range but fails to match in some
		 other way required by the request.

       BadValue Some numeric value falls outside the range of
		 values accepted by the request.  Unless a spe-
		 cific 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.
