XkbSetDeviceButtonActions(3Xkb)                XKBLIB FUNCTION               XkbSetDeviceButtonActions(3Xkb)



NAME
       XkbSetDeviceButtonActions - Change only the button actions for an input extension device

SYNTAX
       Bool XkbSetDeviceButtonActions ( dpy, device, first_button, num_buttons, actions )
             Display * dpy;
             XkbDeviceInfoPtr device;
             unsigned int first_button;
             unsigned int num_buttons;
             *** MISSING *** actions;

ARGUMENTS
       - dpy  connection to X server

       - device
              structure defining the device and modifications

       - first_button
              number of first button to update, 0 relative

       - num_buttons
              number of buttons to update

       - actions
              *** MISSING ***

DESCRIPTION
       XkbSetDeviceButtonActions   assigns   actions   to   the   buttons   of   the   device  specified  in
       device_info->device_spec.  Actions are assigned to num_buttons buttons  beginning  with  first_button
       and are taken from the actions specified in device_info->btn_acts.

       If  the  server does not support assignment of Xkb actions to extension device buttons, XkbSetDevice-ButtonActions XkbSetDeviceButtonActions
       ButtonActions has no effect and returns False. If the device has no buttons  or  if  first_button  or
       num_buttons  specify  buttons  outside of the valid range as determined by device_info->num_btns, the
       function has no effect and returns False. Otherwise, XkbSetDeviceButtonActions sends a request to the
       server to change the actions for the specified buttons and returns True.

       If  the  actual request sent to the server involved illegal button numbers, a BadValue protocol error
       is generated. If an invalid device identifier is specified in device_info->device_spec, a BadKeyboard
       protocol  error  results. If the actual device specified in device_info->device_spec does not contain
       buttons and a request affecting buttons is made, a BadMatch protocol error is generated.

DIAGNOSTICS
       BadKeyboard    The device specified was not a valid core or input extension device

       BadMatch       A compatible version of Xkb was not available in the server or an argument has correct
                      type and range, but is otherwise invalid

       BadValue       An argument is out of range



X Version 11                                     Release 6.1                 XkbSetDeviceButtonActions(3Xkb)
