XkbAddGeomDoodad(3)						   XKB FUNCTIONS					       XkbAddGeomDoodad(3)

NAME

       XkbAddGeomDoodad - Add one doodad to a section of a keyboard geometry or to the top-level geometry

SYNOPSIS

       XkbDoodadPtr XkbAddGeomDoodad ( geom , section, name )
	     XkbGeometryPtr geom;
	     XkbSectionPtr section;
	     Atom name;

ARGUMENTS

       - geom geometry to which the doodad is added

       - section
	      section, if any, to which the doodad is added

       - name name of the new doodad

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.

       A doodad describes some visible aspect of the keyboard that is not a key and is not a section.  XkbAddGeomDoodad adds a	doodad	with  name
       specified  by  name  to the geometry geom if section is NULL or to the section of the geometry specified by section if section is not NULL.
       XkbAddGeomDoodad returns NULL if any of the parameters is empty or if it was not able to allocate space for the doodad. If there is already
       a doodad with the name name in the doodad array for the geometry (if section is NULL) or the section (if section is non-NULL), a pointer to
       that doodad is returned. To allocate space for an arbitrary number of doodads to a section, use the XkbAllocGeomSectionDoodads function. To
       allocate space for an arbitrary number of doodads to a keyboard geometry, use the XkbAllocGeomDoodads function.
