18 XkbOutOfRangeGroupNumber returns the out-of-range group number, repre‐
19 sented as a group index, from the group_info field of an XkbSymMapRec
20 structure.
21 The group_info field of an XkbSymMapRec is an encoded value containing
23 the number of groups of symbols bound to the key as well as the speci‐
24 fication of the treatment of out-of-range groups. It is legal for a key
25 to have zero groups, in which case it also has zero symbols and all
26 events from that key yield NoSymbol. To obtain the number of groups of
27 symbols bound to the key, use XkbKeyNumGroups. To change the number of
28 groups bound to a key, use XkbChangeTypesOfKey. To obtain a mask that
29 determines the treatment of out-of-range groups, use XkbKeyGroupInfo
30 and XkbOutOfRangeGroupInfo.
31 The keyboard controls contain a groups_wrap field specifying the han‐
33 dling of illegal groups on a global basis. That is, when the user per‐
34 forms an action causing the effective group to go out of the legal
35 range, the groups_wrap field specifies how to normalize the effective
36 keyboard group to a group that is legal for the keyboard as a whole,
37 but there is no guarantee that the normalized group will be within the
38 range of legal groups for any individual key. The per-key group_info
39 field specifies how a key treats a legal effective group if the key
40 does not have a type specified for the group of concern. For example,
41 the Enter key usually has just one group defined. If the user performs
42 an action causing the global keyboard group to change to Group2, the
43 group_info field for the Enter key describes how to handle this situa‐
44 tion.
45 Out-of-range groups for individual keys are mapped to a legal group
47 using the same options as are used for the overall keyboard group. The
48 particular type of mapping used is controlled by the bits set in the
49 group_info flag, as shown in Table 1.
