XOSD_IS_ONSCREEN(3)													       XOSD_IS_ONSCREEN(3)

NAME
xosd_is_onscreen - Returns wether the XOSD window is shown
SYNOPSIS
#include <xosd.h> xosd *xosd_is_onscreen (xosd *osd);
DESCRIPTION
osd_is_onscreen determines weather a XOSD window, is currently being shown (is mapped to the X display). Because XOSD displays data asyn- chronously (see xosd_display(3) for details) it can be difficult to know if data is being displayed, xosd_is_onscreen solves this problem. Call xosd_show(3) or xosd_hide(3) to alter the visibility of the XOSD window.
ARGUMENTS
osd The XOSD window to query.
RETURN VALUE
A 1 is returned if the window is onscreen (mapped), or 0 if it is hidden (unmapped). On error, -1 is returned and xosd_error is set to in- dicate the reason for the error.
ENVIRONMENT
char *xosd_error A string to a text string describing the error, if one occurred.
HISTORY
The xosd_is_onscreen function first appeared in version 2.1 of the XOSD library.
