NAME¶
XFilterEvent - filter X events for an input method
SYNTAX¶
Bool XFilterEvent(XEvent *event, Window w);
ARGUMENTS¶
- event
- Specifies the event to filter.
- w
- Specifies the window for which the filter is to be applied.
DESCRIPTION¶
If the window argument is
None,
XFilterEvent applies the filter to
the window specified in the
XEvent structure. The window argument is
provided so that layers above Xlib that do event redirection can indicate to
which window an event has been redirected.
If
XFilterEvent returns
True, then some input method has filtered
the event, and the client should discard the event. If
XFilterEvent
returns
False, then the client should continue processing the event.
If a grab has occurred in the client and
XFilterEvent returns
True, the client should ungrab the keyboard.
