21 The type field can have any one of the values shown in Table 1.

28 XkbSA_SetControls A key press enables any boolean controls
29 specified in the ctrls fields that were
30 not already enabled at the time of the
31 key press. A key release disables any
32 controls enabled by the key press. This
33 action can cause XkbControlsNotify
34 events.
35 XkbSA_LockControls If the XkbSA_LockNoLock bit is not set
36 in the flags field, a key press enables
37 any controls specified in the ctrls
38 fields that were not already enabled at
39 the time of the key press.
40 If the XkbSA_LockNoUnlock bit is not set
41 in the flags field, a key release dis‐
42 ables any controls specified in the
43 ctrls fields that were not already dis‐
44 abled at the time of the key press.
45 This action can cause XkbControlsNotify
46 events.
47
48 The flags field is composed of the bitwise inclusive OR of the masks
49 shown in Table 2.

56 XkbSA_LockNoLock If set, and the action type is
57 XkbSA_LockControls, the server only dis‐
58 ables controls.
59 XkbSA_LockNoUnlock If set, and the action type is
60 XkbSA_LockControls, the server only en‐
61 ables controls.
62
63 The XkbSA_SetControls action implements a key that enables a boolean
64 control when pressed and disables it when released. The XkbSA_LockCon‐
65 trols action is used to implement a key that toggles the state of a
66 boolean control each time it is pressed and released. The XkbSA_Loc‐
67 kNoLock and XkbSA_LockNoUnlock flags allow modifying the toggling be‐
68 havior to only unlock or only lock the boolean control.
69
70 The ctrls0, ctrls1, ctrls2, and ctrls3 fields represent the boolean
71 controls in the enabled_ctrls field of the controls structure. Xkb
72 macros, to convert between the two formats.
73
74 XkbActionSetCtrls sets the ctrls0 through ctrls3 fields of act from
75 ctrls.
