xseticfocus

XSetICFocus(3X11)						  XLIB FUNCTIONS						 XSetICFocus(3X11)

NAME

       XSetICFocus, XUnsetICFocus - set and unset input context focus

SYNTAX

       void XSetICFocus(ic)
	     XIC ic;

       void XUnsetICFocus(ic)
	     XIC ic;

ARGUMENTS

       ic	 Specifies the input context.

DESCRIPTION

       The XSetICFocus function allows a client to notify an input method that the focus window attached to the specified input context has
       received keyboard focus.  The input method should take action to provide appropriate feedback.  Complete feedback specification is a matter
       of user interface policy.

       Calling XSetICFocus does not affect the focus window value.

       The XUnsetICFocus function allows a client to notify an input method that the specified input context has lost the keyboard focus and that
       no more input is expected on the focus window attached to that input context.  The input method should take action to provide appropriate
       feedback.  Complete feedback specification is a matter of user interface policy.

       Calling XUnsetICFocus does not affect the focus window value; the client may still receive events from the input method that are directed
       to the focus window.
