XkbKeyNumSyms(3)                                XKB FUNCTIONS                               XkbKeyNumSyms(3)



NAME
       XkbKeyNumSyms - Returns the total number of keysyms for the key corresponding to keycode

SYNOPSIS
       int XkbKeyNumSyms macro ( xkb, keycode )
             XkbDescPtr xkb;
             KeyCode keycode;

ARGUMENTS
       - xkb  Xkb description of interest

       - keycode
              keycode of interest

DESCRIPTION
       The  key  width  and  number of groups associated with a key are used to form a small two-dimensional
       array of KeySyms for a key. This array may be different sizes for different keys.  The  array  for  a
       single  key is stored as a linear list, in row-major order. The arrays for all of the keys are stored
       in the syms field of the client map. There is one row for each group associated with a  key  and  one
       column for each level. The index corresponding to a given group and shift level is computed as:

            idx = group_index * key_width + shift_level

       The offset field of the key_sym_map entry for a key is used to access the beginning of the array.

       XkbKeyNumSyms returns the total number of keysyms for the key corresponding to keycode.
