XCopyArea(3)                    XLIB FUNCTIONS                    XCopyArea(3)




NAME

       XCopyArea, XCopyPlane - copy areas


SYNTAX

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

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


ARGUMENTS

       dest_x
       dest_y    Specify  the  x  and y coordinates, which are relative 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 relative 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 visible or are retained in backing store.  If the destination is
       a  window  with  a background other than None, corresponding regions of
       the destination are tiled with that background (with plane-mask of  all
       ones  and GXcopy function).  Regardless of tiling or whether the desti-
       nation is a window 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,  subwin-
       dow-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 rec-
       tangle 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 rectan-
       gle  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 contains 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,  fore-
       ground,  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 Win-
                 dow or Pixmap.

       BadGC     A value for a GContext argument does not name a defined GCon-
                 text.

       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.

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