18 int *xPtr (out) Pointer to location in which to store
19 root-window x-coordinate corresponding to
20 left edge of tkwin's border.
21
22 int *yPtr (out) Pointer to location in which to store
23 root-window y-coordinate corresponding to
24 top edge of tkwin's border.

28 This procedure scans through the structural information maintained by
29 Tk to compute the root-window coordinates corresponding to the upper-
30 left corner of tkwin's border. If tkwin has no border, then Tk_Get‐
31 RootCoords returns the root-window coordinates corresponding to loca‐
32 tion (0,0) in tkwin. Tk_GetRootCoords is relatively efficient, since
33 it does not have to communicate with the X server.
