XLIB FUNCTIONS                                XCreateRegion(3x11)



NAME
     XCreateRegion, XSetRegion, XDestroyRegion - create or des-
     troy regions

SYNTAX
     cc [ flag... ] file... -lX11 [ library... ]

     Region XCreateRegion(void);

     int XSetRegion(Display *display, GC gc, Region r);

     int XDestroyRegion(Region r);

ARGUMENTS
     display   Specifies the connection to the X server.

     gc        Specifies the GC.

     r         Specifies the region.

DESCRIPTION
     The XCreateRegion function creates a new empty region.

     The XSetRegion function sets the clip-mask in the GC to the
     specified region.  The region is specified relative to the
     drawable's origin.  The resulting GC clip origin is
     implementation-dependent.  Once it is set in the GC, the
     region can be destroyed.

     The XDestroyRegion function deallocates the storage associ-
     ated with a specified region.
