1. NAME▲
XkbComputeShapeBounds - Updates the bounding box of a shape
2. SYNOPSIS ▲
Bool XkbComputeShapeBounds (XkbShapePtr shape );
3. ARGUMENTS ▲
- - shape
shape to be examined
4. DESCRIPTION ▲
Xkb provides a number of convenience functions to help use a keyboard geometry. These include functions to return the bounding box of a shape's top surface and to update the bounding box of a shape row or section. A shape is made up of a number of outlines. Each outline is a polygon made up of a number of points. The bounding box of a shape is a rectangle that contains all the outlines of that shape. A ShapeRec contains a BoundsRec that describes the bounds of the shape. If you add or delete an outline to or from a shape, the bounding box must be updated. XkbComputeShapeBoundsupdates the BoundsRec contained in the shapeby examining all the outlines of the shape and setting the BoundsRec to the minimum x and minimum y, and maximum x and maximum y values found in those outlines. XkbComputeShapeBoundsreturns False if shapeis NULL or if there are no outlines for the shape; otherwise, it returns True. If you add or delete a key to or from a row, or if you update the shape of one of the keys in that row, you may need to update the bounding box of that row. To update the bounding box of a row, use XkbComputeRowBounds.
