NAME

       XkbAddGeomDoodad - Add one doodad to a section of a keyboard geometry or to the top-level geometry

SYNOPSIS


       XkbDoodadPtr XkbAddGeomDoodad (XkbGeometryPtr geom, XkbSectionPtr section, Atom name);

ARGUMENTS

       geom   geometry to which the doodad is added

       section
              section, if any, to which the doodad is added

       name   name of the new doodad

DESCRIPTION

       Xkb  provides  functions to add a single new element to the top-level keyboard geometry. In each case the
       num_ * fields of the corresponding structure is incremented by 1. These  functions  do  not  change  sz_*
       unless  there  is  no more room in the array. Some of these functions fill in the values of the element's
       structure from the arguments. For other functions, you must explicitly write code to fill the structure's
       elements.

       The top-level geometry  description  includes  a  list  of  geometry  properties.   A  geometry  property
       associates  an arbitrary string with an equally arbitrary name. Programs that display images of keyboards
       can use geometry properties as hints, but they are not interpreted by Xkb. No other  geometry  structures
       refer to geometry properties.

       A  doodad  describes  some  visible  aspect  of  the  keyboard  that  is  not a key and is not a section.
       XkbAddGeomDoodad adds a doodad with name specified by name to the geometry geom if section is NULL or  to
       the  section  of the geometry specified by section if section is not NULL.  XkbAddGeomDoodad returns NULL
       if any of the parameters is empty or if it was not able to allocate space for the  doodad.  If  there  is
       already  a  doodad  with  the  name name in the doodad array for the geometry (if section is NULL) or the
       section (if section is non-NULL), a pointer to  that  doodad  is  returned.  To  allocate  space  for  an
       arbitrary  number of doodads to a section, use the XkbAllocGeomSectionDoodads function. To allocate space
       for an arbitrary number of doodads to a keyboard geometry, use the XkbAllocGeomDoodads function.
