XkbAddGeomRow(3)                  XKB FUNCTIONS                 XkbAddGeomRow(3)




NAME

       XkbAddGeomRow - Add a row to a section


SYNOPSIS

       XkbRowPtr XkbAddGeomRow (XkbSectionPtr section, int sz_keys);


ARGUMENTS

       section
              section to be updated

       sz_keys
              number of keys to be reserved


DESCRIPTION

       Xkb provides functions to add a single new element to the top-level
       keyboard geometry. In each case the num_ * fields of the corresponding
       structure is incremented by 1. These functions do not change sz_* unless
       there is no more room in the array. Some of these functions fill in the
       values of the element's structure from the arguments. For other
       functions, you must explicitly write code to fill the structure's
       elements.

       The top-level geometry description includes a list of geometry
       properties.  A geometry property associates an arbitrary string with an
       equally arbitrary name. Programs that display images of keyboards can use
       geometry properties as hints, but they are not interpreted by Xkb. No
       other geometry structures refer to geometry properties.

       One of the components of a keyboard geometry section is one or more rows
       of keys.  XkbAddGeomRow adds one row to the specified section.  The newly
       created row contains space for the number of keys specified in sz_keys.
       They are allocated and zeroed, but otherwise uninitialized.
       XkbAddGeomRow returns NULL if any of the parameters is empty or if it was
       not able to allocate space for the row. To allocate space for an
       arbitrary number of rows to a section, use the XkbAllocGeomRows function.


STRUCTURES

       typedef struct _XkbRow {
               short           top;
               short           left;
               unsigned short  num_keys;
               unsigned short  sz_keys;
               int             vertical;
               XkbKeyPtr       keys;
               XkbBoundsRec    bounds;
       } XkbRowRec, *XkbRowPtr;
