xcb_image_text_8(3) XCB Requests xcb_image_text_8(3) NAME xcb_image_text_8 - Draws text SYNOPSIS #include <xcb/xproto.h> Request function xcb_void_cookie_t xcb_image_text_8(xcb_connection_t *conn, uint8_t string_len, xcb_drawable_t drawable, xcb_gcontext_t gc, int16_t x, int16_t y, const char *string); REQUEST ARGUMENTS conn The XCB connection to X11. string_len The length of the string. Note that this parameter limited by 255 due to using 8 bits! drawable The drawable (Window or Pixmap) to draw text on. gc The graphics context to use. The following graphics context components are used: plane- mask, foreground, background, font, subwindow-mode, clip-x- origin, clip-y-origin, and clip-mask. x The x coordinate of the first character, relative to the origin of drawable. y The y coordinate of the first character, relative to the origin of drawable. string The string to draw. Only the first 255 characters are relevant due to the data type of string_len. DESCRIPTION Fills the destination rectangle with the background pixel from gc, then paints the text with the foreground pixel from gc. The upper-left corner of the filled rectangle is at [x, y - font-ascent]. The width is overall-width, the height is font-ascent + font-descent. The overall- width, font-ascent and font-descent are as returned by xcb_query_text_extents (TODO). Note that using X core fonts is deprecated (but still supported) in favor of client-side rendering using Xft. RETURN VALUE Returns an xcb_void_cookie_t. Errors (if any) have to be handled in the event loop. If you want to handle errors directly with xcb_request_check instead, use xcb_image_text_8_checked. See xcb-requests(3) for details. ERRORS xcb_drawable_error_t The specified drawable (Window or Pixmap) does not exist. xcb-requests(3), xcb_image_text_16(3) AUTHOR Generated from xproto.xml.
