STRUCTURES

9       The structure for EnterNotify and LeaveNotify events contains:
10
11       typedef struct {
12               int type;       /* EnterNotify or LeaveNotify */
13               unsigned long serial;   /* # of last request processed by server */
14               Bool send_event;        /* true if this came from a SendEvent request */
15               Display *display;       /* Display the event was read from */
16               Window window;  /* “event” window reported relative to */
17               Window root;    /* root window that the event occurred on */
18               Window subwindow;       /* child window */
19               Time time;      /* milliseconds */
20               int x, y;       /* pointer x, y coordinates in event window */
21               int x_root, y_root;     /* coordinates relative to root */
22               int mode;       /* NotifyNormal, NotifyGrab, NotifyUngrab */
23               int detail;
24                       /*
25                       * NotifyAncestor, NotifyVirtual, NotifyInferior,
26                       * NotifyNonlinear,NotifyNonlinearVirtual
27                       */
28               Bool same_screen;       /* same screen flag */
29               Bool focus;     /* boolean focus */
30               unsigned int state;     /* key or button mask */
31       } XCrossingEvent;
32       typedef XCrossingEvent XEnterWindowEvent;
33       typedef XCrossingEvent XLeaveWindowEvent;
34
35       When  you  receive  these events, the structure members are set as fol‐
36       lows.
37
38       The type member is set to the event type constant  name  that  uniquely
39       identifies it.  For example, when the X server reports a GraphicsExpose
40       event to a client application, it sends an XGraphicsExposeEvent  struc‐
41       ture with the type member set to GraphicsExpose.  The display member is
42       set to a pointer to the display the event was read on.  The  send_event
43       member  is  set to True if the event came from a SendEvent protocol re‐
44       quest.  The serial member is set from the serial number reported in the
45       protocol  but expanded from the 16-bit least-significant bits to a full
46       32-bit value.  The window member is set to the window that is most use‐
47       ful to toolkit dispatchers.
48
49       The  window  member  is  set  to the window on which the EnterNotify or
50       LeaveNotify event was generated and is referred to as the event window.
51       This  is  the  window  used by the X server to report the event, and is
52       relative to the root window on which the event occurred.  The root mem‐
53       ber  is  set  to  the  root window of the screen on which the event oc‐
54       curred.
55
56       For a LeaveNotify event, if a child of the event  window  contains  the
57       initial position of the pointer, the subwindow component is set to that
58       child.  Otherwise, the X server sets the subwindow member to None.  For
59       an EnterNotify event, if a child of the event window contains the final
60       pointer position, the subwindow component is set to that child or None.
61
62       The time member is set to the time when the event was generated and  is
63       expressed  in milliseconds.  The x and y members are set to the coordi‐
64       nates of the pointer position in the event window.   This  position  is
65       always  the pointer's final position, not its initial position.  If the
66       event window is on the same screen as the root window, x and y are  the
67       pointer  coordinates relative to the event window's origin.  Otherwise,
68       x and y are set to zero.  The x_root and y_root members are set to  the
69       pointer's  coordinates relative to the root window's origin at the time
70       of the event.
71
72       The same_screen member is set to indicate whether the event  window  is
73       on  the same screen as the root window and can be either True or False.
74       If True, the event and root windows are on the same screen.  If  False,
75       the event and root windows are not on the same screen.
76
77       The focus member is set to indicate whether the event window is the fo‐
78       cus window or an inferior of the focus window.  The X  server  can  set
79       this  member to either True or False.  If True, the event window is the
80       focus window or an inferior of the focus window.  If False,  the  event
81       window is not the focus window or an inferior of the focus window.
82
83       The  state  member  is set to indicate the state of the pointer buttons
84       and modifier keys just prior to the event.  The X server can  set  this
85       member to the bitwise inclusive OR of one or more of the button or mod‐
86       ifier key masks: Button1Mask,  Button2Mask,  Button3Mask,  Button4Mask,
87       Button5Mask,  ShiftMask,  LockMask,  ControlMask,  Mod1Mask,  Mod2Mask,
88       Mod3Mask, Mod4Mask, Mod5Mask.
89
90       The mode member is set  to  indicate  whether  the  events  are  normal
91       events,  pseudo-motion  events  when a grab activates, or pseudo-motion
92       events when a grab deactivates.  The X server can set  this  member  to
93       NotifyNormal, NotifyGrab, or NotifyUngrab.
94
95       The detail member is set to indicate the notify detail and can be Noti‐
96       fyAncestor, NotifyVirtual, NotifyInferior,  NotifyNonlinear,  or  Noti‐
97       fyNonlinearVirtual.
