XLIB FUNCTIONS                        XTranslateCoordinates(3x11)



NAME
     XTranslateCoordinates - translate window coordinates

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

     Bool XTranslateCoordinates(Display *display, Window src_w,
          dest_w, int src_x, int src_y, int *dest_x_return, int
          *dest_y_return, Window *child_return);

ARGUMENTS
     child_return
               Returns the child if the coordinates are contained
               in a mapped child of the destination window.

     dest_w    Specifies the destination window.

     dest_x_return
     dest_y_return
               Return the x and y coordinates within the destina-
               tion window.

     display   Specifies the connection to the X server.

     src_w     Specifies the source window.

     src_x
     src_y     Specify the x and y coordinates within the source
               window.

DESCRIPTION
     If XTranslateCoordinates returns True, it takes the src_x
     and src_y coordinates relative to the source window's origin
     and returns these coordinates to dest_x_return and
     dest_y_return relative to the destination window's origin.
     If XTranslateCoordinates returns False, src_w and dest_w are
     on different screens, and dest_x_return and dest_y_return
     are zero.  If the coordinates are contained in a mapped
     child of dest_w, that child is returned to child_return.
     Otherwise, child_return is set to None.

     XTranslateCoordinates can generate a BadWindow error.

DIAGNOSTICS
     BadWindow A value for a Window argument does not name a
               defined Window.
