NAME

       Tk_GetVRootGeometry - Get location and size of virtual root for window


SYNOPSIS

       #include <tk.h>

       Tk_GetVRootGeometry(tkwin, xPtr, yPtr, widthPtr, heightPtr)


ARGUMENTS

       Token  for  window whose virtual root is to be queried.  Points to word
       in which to store x-offset of virtual root.  Points to word in which to
       store y-offset of virtual root.  Points to word in which to store width
       of virtual root.  Points to word in which to store  height  of  virtual
       root.



DESCRIPTION

       Tk_GetVRootGeometry returns geometry information about the virtual root
       window associated with tkwin.  The virtual root is  the  one  in  which
       tkwin's  nearest  top-level  ancestor  (or tkwin itself if it is a top-
       level window) has been reparented by the window manager.   This  window
       is  identified by a __SWM_ROOT or __WM_ROOT property placed on the top-
       level window by the window manager.  If tkwin is not associated with  a
       virtual  root  (e.g.   because  the window manager does not use virtual
       roots) then *xPtr and  *yPtr  will  be  set  to  0  and  *widthPtr  and
       *heightPtr  will  be  set  to  the  dimensions of the screen containing
       tkwin.
