XkbAddGeomRow(3)                                XKB FUNCTIONS                               XkbAddGeomRow(3)



NAME
       XkbAddGeomRow - Add a row to a section

SYNOPSIS
       XkbRowPtr XkbAddGeomRow ( section, sz_keys )
             XkbSectionPtr section;
             int sz_keys;

ARGUMENTS
       - section
              section to be updated

       - sz_keys
              number of keys to be reserved

DESCRIPTION
       Xkb  provides  functions to add a single new element to the top-level keyboard geometry. In each case
       the num_ * fields of the corresponding structure is incremented by 1. These functions do  not  change
       sz_*  unless  there  is  no more room in the array. Some of these functions fill in the values of the
       element's structure from the arguments. For other functions, you must explicitly write code  to  fill
       the structure's elements.

       The top-level geometry description includes a list of geometry properties.  A geometry property asso-ciates associates
       ciates an arbitrary string with an equally arbitrary name. Programs that display images of  keyboards
       can  use  geometry properties as hints, but they are not interpreted by Xkb. No other geometry struc-tures structures
       tures refer to geometry properties.

       One of the components of a keyboard geometry section is one or more rows of keys.  XkbAddGeomRow adds
       one row to the specified section.  The newly created row contains space for the number of keys speci-fied specified
       fied in sz_keys.  They are allocated and zeroed, but otherwise uninitialized.  XkbAddGeomRow  returns
       NULL  if any of the parameters is empty or if it was not able to allocate space for the row. To allo-cate allocate
       cate space for an arbitrary number of rows to a section, use the XkbAllocGeomRows function.

STRUCTURES
       typedef struct _XkbRow {
               short           top;
               short           left;
               unsigned short  num_keys;
               unsigned short  sz_keys;
               int             vertical;
               XkbKeyPtr       keys;
               XkbBoundsRec    bounds;
       } XkbRowRec, *XkbRowPtr;
