XSetWindowBorder

Syntax

XSetWindowBorder(display, w, border_pixel)
      Display *display;
      Window w;
      unsigned long border_pixel;

Arguments

display Specifies the connection to the X server.
w Specifies the window.
border_pixel Specifies the entry in the colormap.

Description

The XSetWindowBorder() function sets the border of the window to the pixel value you specify. If you attempt to perform this on an InputOnly window, a BadMatch error results.

XSetWindowBorder() can generate BadMatch and BadWindow errors.

Diagnostics

BadMatch An InputOnly window is used as a Drawable.
BadMatch Some argument or pair of arguments has the correct type and range but fails to match in some other way required by the request.
BadWindow A value for a Window argument does not name a defined Window.
