XkbAddGeomKey(3)                 XKB FUNCTIONS                XkbAddGeomKey(3)

NAME
       XkbAddGeomKey - Add one key at the end of an existing row of keys

SYNOPSIS
       XkbKeyPtr XkbAddGeomKey (XkbRowPtr row);

ARGUMENTS
       row    row to be updated

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.

       Keys are grouped into rows.  XkbAddGeomKey adds one key to the end of
       the specified row.  The key is allocated and zeroed.  XkbAddGeomKey
       returns NULL if row is empty or if it was not able to allocate space
       for the key. To allocate space for an arbitrary number of keys to a
       row, use XkbAllocGeomKeys.

STRUCTURES

           typedef struct _XkbKey {              /* key in a row */
               XkbKeyNameRec   name;             /* key name */
               short           gap;              /* gap in mm/10 from previous key in row */
               unsigned char   shape_ndx;        /* index of shape for key */
               unsigned char   color_ndx;        /* index of color for key body */
           } XkbKeyRec, *XkbKeyPtr;
