XkbAddGeomProperty(3)						   XKB FUNCTIONS					     XkbAddGeomProperty(3)

NAME

       XkbAddGeomProperty - Add one property to an existing keyboard geometry description

SYNOPSIS

       XkbPropertyPtr XkbAddGeomProperty (XkbGeometryPtr geom, char *name, char *value);

ARGUMENTS

       - geom geometry to be updated

       - name name of the new property

       - value
	      value for the new property

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.

       XkbAddGeomProperty adds one property with the specified name and value to the  keyboard	geometry  specified  by  geom.	XkbAddGeomProperty
       returns NULL if any of the parameters is empty or if it was not able to allocate space for the property. To allocate space for an arbitrary
       number of properties, use the XkbAllocGeomProps function.
