XmbDrawText(3X11)														 XmbDrawText(3X11)

NAME

       XmbDrawText, XwcDrawText - draw text using multiple font sets

SYNOPSIS

       void XmbDrawText(display, d, gc, x, y, items, nitems)
	       Display *display;
	       Drawable d;
	       GC gc;
	       int x, y;
	       XmbTextItem *items;
	       int nitems;

       void XwcDrawText(display, d, gc, x, y, items, nitems)
	       Display *display;
	       Drawable d;
	       GC gc;
	       int x, y;
	       XwcTextItem *items;
	       int nitems;

ARGUMENTS

       Specifies  the  drawable.   Specifies  the connection to the X server.  Specifies the GC.  Specifies an array of text items.  Specifies the
       number of text items in the array.  Specify the x and y coordinates.

DESCRIPTION

       The XmbDrawText and XwcDrawText functions allow complex spacing and font set shifts between text strings.  Each text item is  processed	in
       turn,  with  the  origin of a text element advanced in the primary draw direction by the escapement of the previous text item.  A text item
       delta specifies an additional escapement of the text item drawing origin in the primary draw direction. A font_set member other	than  None
       in  an  item  causes  the font set to be used for this and subsequent text items in the text_items list. Leading text items with a font_set
       member set to None will not be drawn.

       XmbDrawText and XwcDrawText do not perform any context-dependent rendering between text segments. Clients may compute the  drawing  metrics
       by  passing  each  text segment to XmbTextExtents and XwcTextExtents or XmbTextPerCharExtents and XwcTextPerCharExtents.  When the XFontSet
       has missing charsets, each unavailable character is drawn with the default string returned by XCreateFontSet. The behavior for  an  invalid
       codepoint is undefined.

STRUCTURES

       The XmbTextItem structure contains:

       typedef struct {
	       char *chars;    /* pointer to string */
	       int nchars;     /* number of bytes */
	       int delta;      /* pixel delta between strings */
	       XFontSet font_set;      /* fonts, None means do not change */ } XmbTextItem;

       The XwcTextItem structure contains:

       typedef struct {
	       wchar_t *chars; /* pointer to wide char string */
	       int nchars;     /* number of wide characters */
	       int delta;      /* pixel delta between strings */
	       XFontSet font_set;      /* fonts, None means do not change */ } XwcTextItem;
