XCreateRegion(3)          XLIB FUNCTIONS         XCreateRegion(3)



NAME
       XCreateRegion, XSetRegion, XDestroyRegion - create or
       destroy regions

SYNTAX
       Region XCreateRegion(void);

       int XSetRegion(Display *display, GC gc, Region r);

       int XDestroyRegion(Region r);

ARGUMENTS
       display   Specifies the connection to the X server.

       gc        Specifies the GC.

       r         Specifies the region.

DESCRIPTION
       The XCreateRegion function creates a new empty region.

       The XSetRegion function sets the clip-mask in the GC to
       the specified region.  The region is specified relative to
       the drawable's origin.  The resulting GC clip origin is
       implementation-dependent.  Once it is set in the GC, the
       region can be destroyed.

       The XDestroyRegion function deallocates the storage asso-
       ciated with a specified region.
