41 The XRecolorCursor function changes the color of the specified cursor,
42 and if the cursor is being displayed on a screen, the change is visible
43 immediately. The pixel members of the XColor structures are ignored;
44 only the RGB values are used.
45
46 XRecolorCursor can generate a BadCursor error.
47
48 The XFreeCursor function deletes the association between the cursor
49 resource ID and the specified cursor. The cursor storage is freed when
50 no other resource references it. The specified cursor ID should not be
51 referred to again.
52
53 XFreeCursor can generate a BadCursor error.
54
55 Some displays allow larger cursors than other displays. The
56 XQueryBestCursor function provides a way to find out what size cursors
57 are actually possible on the display. It returns the largest size that
58 can be displayed. Applications should be prepared to use smaller cur‐
59 sors on displays that cannot support large ones.
60
61 XQueryBestCursor can generate a BadDrawable error.
62
64 BadCursor A value for a Cursor argument does not name a defined Cursor.
65
66 BadDrawable
67 A value for a Drawable argument does not name a defined Win‐
68 dow or Pixmap.
