Name
       XClearArea, XClearWindow - clear area or window

Syntax
       XClearArea(display, w, x, y, width, height, exposures)
	  Display *display;
	  Window w;
	  int x, y;
	  unsigned int width, height;
	  Bool exposures;

       XClearWindow(display, w)
	  Display *display;
	  Window w;

Arguments
       display	 Specifies the connection to the X server.

       exposures Specifies a Boolean value that indicates if events are to be generated.

       w	 Specifies the window.

       width
       height	 Specify the width and height, which are the dimensions of the rectangle.

       x
       y	 Specify the x and y coordinates, which are relative to the origin of the window and specify the upper-left corner of the rectan-
		 gle.

Description
       The function paints a rectangular area in the specified window according to the specified dimensions with the window's background pixel or
       pixmap.	The subwindow-mode effectively is If width is zero, it is replaced with the current width of the window minus x.  If height is
       zero, it is replaced with the current height of the window minus y.  If the window has a defined background tile, the rectangle clipped by
       any children is filled with this tile.  If the window has background the contents of the window are not changed.  In either case, if expo-
       sures is one or more events are generated for regions of the rectangle that are either visible or are being retained in a backing store.
       If you specify a window whose class is a error results.

       The function clears the entire area in the specified window and is equivalent to (display, w, 0, 0, 0, 0, If the window has a defined back-
       ground tile, the rectangle is tiled with a plane-mask of all ones and function.	If the window has background the contents of the window

Diagnostics
       An	 window is used as a Drawable.

       Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted by the request.
		 Unless a specific range is specified for an argument, the full range defined by the argument's type is accepted. Any argument
		 defined as a set of alternatives can generate this error.

       A value for a Window argument does not name a defined Window.

NAME

       XClearArea, XClearWindow - clear area or window

SYNOPSIS

       XClearArea(display, w, x, y, width, height, exposures)
	       Display *display;
	       Window w;
	       int x, y;
	       unsigned int width, height;
	       Bool exposures;

       XClearWindow(display, w)
	       Display *display;
	       Window w;

ARGUMENTS

       Specifies  the  connection  to the X server.  Specifies a Boolean value that indicates if Expose events are to be generated.  Specifies the
       window.	Specify the width and height, which are the dimensions of the rectangle. and specify the upper-left corner of the rectangle  Spec-
       ify the x and y coordinates, which are relative to the origin of the window and specify the upper-left corner of the rectangle.

DESCRIPTION

       The  XClearArea	function  paints  a rectangular area in the specified window according to the specified dimensions with the window's back-
       ground pixel or pixmap. The subwindow-mode effectively is ClipByChildren. If width is zero, it is replaced with the current  width  of  the
       window  minus  x.  If  height is zero, it is replaced with the current height of the window minus y. If the window has a defined background
       tile, the rectangle clipped by any children is filled with this tile. If the window has background None, the contents of the window are not
       changed. In either case, if exposures is True, one or more Expose events are generated for regions of the rectangle that are either visible
       or are being retained in a backing store. If you specify a window whose class is InputOnly, a BadMatch error results.

       XClearArea can generate BadMatch, BadValue, and BadWindow errors.

       The XClearWindow function clears the entire area in the specified window and is equivalent to XClearArea (display, w, 0, 0, 0,  0,  False).
       If  the	window	has a defined background tile, the rectangle is tiled with a plane-mask of all ones and GXcopy function. If the window has
       background None, the contents of the window are not changed. If you specify a window whose class is InputOnly, a BadMatch error results.

       XClearWindow can generate BadMatch and BadWindow errors.

DIAGNOSTICS

       An InputOnly window is used as a Drawable.  Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted by the request. Unless a specific
       range  is  specified for an argument, the full range defined by the argument's type is accepted.  Any argument defined as a set of alterna-
       tives can generate this error.  A value for a Window argument does not name a defined Window.
