NAME
XDrawImageString, XDrawImageString16 - draw image text
SYNTAX
int XDrawImageString\^(\^Display *display\^, Drawable d\^, GC
gc\^, int x\^, int y\^, char *string\^, int
length\^);
int XDrawImageString16\^(\^Display *display\^, Drawable d\^, GC
gc\^, int x\^, int y\^, XChar2b *string\^, int
length\^);
ARGUMENTS
d
Specifies the drawable.
display
Specifies the connection to the X server.
gc
Specifies the GC.
length
Specifies the number of characters in the string argument.
string
Specifies the character string.
x
y
Specify the x and y coordinates.
DESCRIPTION
The
function is similar to
except that it uses 2-byte or 16-bit characters.
Both functions also use both the foreground and background pixels
of the GC in the destination.
The effect is first to fill a
destination rectangle with the background pixel defined in the GC and then
to paint the text with the foreground pixel.
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 would be returned by
using gc and string.
The function and fill-style defined in the GC are ignored for these functions.
The effective function is
and the effective fill-style is
For fonts defined with 2-byte matrix indexing
and used with
each byte is used as a byte2 with a byte1 of zero.
Both functions use these GC components:
plane-mask, foreground, background, font, subwindow-mode, clip-x-origin,
clip-y-origin, and clip-mask.
and
can generate
and
errors.
DIAGNOSTICS
A value for a Drawable argument does not name a defined Window or Pixmap.
A value for a GContext argument does not name a defined GContext.
An
window is used as a Drawable.
Some argument or pair of arguments has the correct type and range but fails
to match in some other way required by the request.
