27 Xkb provides functions to add a single new element to the top-level
28 keyboard geometry. In each case the num_ * fields of the corresponding
29 structure is incremented by 1. These functions do not change sz_* un‐
30 less there is no more room in the array. Some of these functions fill
31 in the values of the element's structure from the arguments. For other
32 functions, you must explicitly write code to fill the structure's ele‐
33 ments.
34 The top-level geometry description includes a list of geometry proper‐
36 ties. A geometry property associates an arbitrary string with an
37 equally arbitrary name. Programs that display images of keyboards can
38 use geometry properties as hints, but they are not interpreted by Xkb.
39 No other geometry structures refer to geometry properties.
40 A keyboard geometry contains an arbitrary number of sections. XkbAd‐
42 dGeomSection adds one section to an existing keyboard geometry geom.
43 The new section contains space for the number of rows, doodads, and
44 overlays specified by sz_rows, sz_doodads, and sz_overlays. The new
45 section is allocated and zeroed and given the name specified by name.
46 If a section with name name already exists in the geometry, a pointer
47 to the existing section is returned. XkbAddGeomSection returns NULL if
48 any of the parameters is empty or if it was not able to allocate space
49 for the section. To allocate space for an arbitrary number of sections
50 to a geometry, use XkbAllocGeomSections.
