venience routines
int XSetClipOrigin(Display *display, GC gc, int
clip_x_origin, int clip_y_origin);
int XSetClipMask(Display *display, GC gc, Pixmap pixmap);
int XSetClipRectangles(Display *display, GC gc, int
clip_x_origin, int clip_y_origin, XRectangle rectan-
gles[], int n, int ordering);
display Specifies the connection to the X server.
clip_x_origin
clip_y_origin
Specify the x and y coordinates of the clip-mask
origin.
gc Specifies the GC.
n Specifies the number of rectangles.
ordering Specifies the ordering relations on the rectan-
gles. You can pass Unsorted, YSorted, YXSorted, or
YXBanded.
pixmap Specifies the pixmap or None.
rectangles
Specifies an array of rectangles that define the
clip-mask.
The XSetClipOrigin function sets the clip origin in the
specified GC. The clip-mask origin is interpreted relative
to the origin of whatever destination drawable is specified
in the graphics request.
XSetClipOrigin can generate BadAlloc and BadGC errors.
The XSetClipMask function sets the clip-mask in the speci-
fied GC to the specified pixmap. If the clip-mask is set to
None, the pixels are are always drawn (regardless of the
clip-origin).
XSetClipMask can generate BadAlloc, BadGC, BadMatch, and
BadValue errors.

XSetClipOrigin(3X11) XLIB FUNCTIONS XSetClipOrigin(3X11)
The XSetClipRectangles function changes the clip-mask in the
specified GC to the specified list of rectangles and sets
the clip origin. The output is clipped to remain contained
within the rectangles. The clip-origin is interpreted rela-
tive to the origin of whatever destination drawable is
specified in a graphics request. The rectangle coordinates
are interpreted relative to the clip-origin. The rectangles
should be nonintersecting, or the graphics results will be
undefined. Note that the list of rectangles can be empty,
which effectively disables output. This is the opposite of
passing None as the clip-mask in XCreateGC, XChangeGC, and
XSetClipMask.
If known by the client, ordering relations on the rectangles
can be specified with the ordering argument. This may pro-
vide faster operation by the server. If an incorrect order-
ing is specified, the X server may generate a BadMatch
error, but it is not required to do so. If no error is gen-
erated, the graphics results are undefined. Unsorted means
the rectangles are in arbitrary order. YSorted means that
the rectangles are nondecreasing in their Y origin. YXSorted
additionally constrains YSorted order in that all rectangles
with an equal Y origin are nondecreasing in their X origin.
YXBanded additionally constrains YXSorted by requiring that,
for every possible Y scanline, all rectangles that include
that scanline have an identical Y origins and Y extents.
XSetClipRectangles can generate BadAlloc, BadGC, BadMatch,
and BadValue errors.
BadAlloc The server failed to allocate the requested
resource or server memory.
BadGC A value for a GContext argument does not name a
defined GContext.
BadMatch Some argument or pair of arguments has the correct
type and range but fails to match in some other
way required by the request.
BadValue Some numeric value falls outside the range of
values accepted by the request. Unless a specific
range is specified for an argument, the full range
defined by the argument's type is accepted. Any
argument defined as a set of alternatives can gen-
erate this error.
