XkbComputeShapeBounds(3) XKB FUNCTIONS XkbComputeShapeBounds(3)NAMEXkbComputeShapeBounds - Updates the bounding box of a shape
SYNOPSIS
Bool XkbComputeShapeBounds (XkbShapePtr shape);
ARGUMENTS
- shape
shape to be examined
DESCRIPTION
Xkb provides a number of convenience functions to help use a keyboard
geometry. These include functions to return the bounding box of a
shape's top surface and to update the bounding box of a shape row or
section.
A shape is made up of a number of outlines. Each outline is a polygon
made up of a number of points. The bounding box of a shape is a rectan‐
gle that contains all the outlines of that shape.
A ShapeRec contains a BoundsRec that describes the bounds of the shape.
If you add or delete an outline to or from a shape, the bounding box
must be updated.
XkbComputeShapeBounds updates the BoundsRec contained in the shape by
examining all the outlines of the shape and setting the BoundsRec to
the minimum x and minimum y, and maximum x and maximum y values found
in those outlines. XkbComputeShapeBounds returns False if shape is
NULL or if there are no outlines for the shape; otherwise, it returns
True.
If you add or delete a key to or from a row, or if you update the shape
of one of the keys in that row, you may need to update the bounding box
of that row. To update the bounding box of a row, use XkbComputeRow‐
Bounds.
