     sizes

SYNTAX
     Status XQueryBestSize(display, class, which_screen, width, height,
     width_return, height_return)
           Display *display;
           int class;
           Drawable which_screen;
           unsigned int width, height;
           unsigned int *width_return, *height_return;

     Status XQueryBestTile(display, which_screen, width, height, width_return,
     height_return)
           Display *display;
           Drawable which_screen;
           unsigned int width, height;
           unsigned int *width_return, *height_return;

     Status XQueryBestStipple(display, which_screen, width, height,
     width_return, height_return)
           Display *display;
           Drawable which_screen;
           unsigned int width, height;
           unsigned int *width_return, *height_return;

ARGUMENTS
     class     Specifies the class that you are interested in.  You can pass
               TileShape, CursorShape, or StippleShape.

     display   Specifies the connection to the X server.

     width
     height    Specify the width and height.

     which_screen
               Specifies any drawable on the screen.

     width_return
     height_return
               Return the width and height of the object best supported by the
               display hardware.

DESCRIPTION
     The XQueryBestSize function returns the best or closest size to the
     specified size.  For CursorShape, this is the largest size that can be
     fully displayed on the screen specified by which_screen.  For TileShape,
     this is the size that can be tiled fastest.  For StippleShape, this is
     the size that can be stippled fastest.  For CursorShape, the drawable
     indicates the desired screen.  For TileShape and StippleShape, the
     drawable indicates the screen and possibly the window class and depth.
     An InputOnly window cannot be used as the drawable for TileShape or
     StippleShape, or a BadMatch error results.

     XQueryBestSize can generate BadDrawable, BadMatch, and BadValue errors.

     The XQueryBestTile function returns the best or closest size, that is,
     the size that can be tiled fastest on the screen specified by
     which_screen.  The drawable indicates the screen and possibly the window
     class and depth.  If an InputOnly window is used as the drawable, a

     BadMatch error results.

     XQueryBestTile can generate BadDrawable and BadMatch errors.

     XQueryBestTile can generate BadDrawable and BadMatch errors.

     The XQueryBestStipple function returns the best or closest size, that is,
     the size that can be stippled fastest on the screen specified by
     which_screen.  The drawable indicates the screen and possibly the window
     class and depth.  If an InputOnly window is used as the drawable, a
     BadMatch error results.

     XQueryBestStipple can generate BadDrawable and BadMatch errors.

DIAGNOSTICS
     BadMatch  An InputOnly window is used as a Drawable.

     BadDrawable
               A value for a Drawable argument does not name a defined Window
               or Pixmap.

     BadMatch  The values do not exist for an InputOnly window.

     BadValue  Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted
               by the request.  Unless a specific range is specified for an
               argument, the full range defined by the argument's type is
               accepted.  Any argument defined as a set of alternatives can
               generate this error.
