XSETDEVICEVALUATORS(3)                                  XSETDEVICEVALUATORS(3)


NAME

       XSetDeviceValuators - initialize the valuators on an extension input
       device


SYNOPSIS

       #include <X11/extensions/XInput.h>

       XSetDeviceValuators( Display *display,
                            XDevice *device,
                            int *valuators,
                            int first_valuator,
                            int num_valuators);

       display
              Specifies the connection to the X server.

       device
              Specifies the device whose valuators are to be
              initialized.

       valuators
              Specifies a pointer to an array of integer values to be
              used to initialize the device valuators.

       first_valuator
              Specifies the first valuator to be set. Valuators are
              numbered beginning with zero.

       num_valuators
              Specifies the number of valuators to be set.


DESCRIPTION

           The XSetDeviceValuators request sets the current values of the
           valuators of an input device. The valuators in the range
           first_valuator to (first_valuator + num_valuators) are set to
           the specified values. Valuators are numbered beginning with 0.
           Not all input devices support initialization of valuator
           values. If this request is made to a device that does not
           support valuators initialization, a BadMatch error will occur.

           If the request succeeds, a status of Success is returned. If
           another client has the device grabbed, a status of
           AlreadyGrabbed is returned.

           XSetDeviceValuators can generate a BadLength, BadDevice,
           BadMatch, or BadValue error.


DIAGNOSTICS

           BadDevice
                  An invalid device was specified. The specified device
                  does not exist or has not been opened by this client via
                  XOpenInputDevice.

           BadMatch
                  This error may occur if an XSetDeviceValuators request
                  is made specifying a device that has no valuators and
                  reports no axes of motion, or if such a request is made
                  specifying a device that does not support valuator
                  initialization.

           BadValue
                  An invalid first_valuator or num_valuators values was
                  specified.
