NAME

6       xcb_configure_window - Configures window attributes
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <xcb/xproto.h>
10
11   Request function
12       xcb_void_cookie_t xcb_configure_window(xcb_connection_t *conn,
13              xcb_window_t window, uint16_t value_mask, const
14              void *value_list);
15

REQUEST ARGUMENTS

17       conn      The XCB connection to X11.
18
19       window    The window to configure.
20
21       value_mask
22                 Bitmask of attributes to change.
23
24       value_list
25                 New values, corresponding to the attributes in value_mask.
26                 The order has to correspond to the order of possible val‐
27                 ue_mask bits. See the example.

DESCRIPTION

30       Configures a window's size, position, border width and stacking order.
31

RETURN VALUE

33       Returns an xcb_void_cookie_t. Errors (if any) have to be handled in the
34       event loop.
35
36       If you want to handle errors directly with xcb_request_check instead,
37       use xcb_configure_window_checked. See xcb-requests(3) for details.
38

ERRORS

40       xcb_match_error_t
41                 You specified a Sibling without also specifying StackMode or
42                 the window is not actually a Sibling.
