# xcb\_fill\_poly(3)

## NAME

xcb\_fill\_poly -

## SYNOPSIS

**#include \<xcb/xproto.h\>**

### Request function

xcb\_void\_cookie\_t **xcb\_fill\_poly**(xcb\_connection\_t \**conn*, xcb\_drawable\_t *drawable*, xcb\_gcontext\_t *gc*, uint8\_t *shape*, uint8\_t *coordinate\_mode*, uint32\_t *points\_len*, const xcb\_point\_t \**points*);\

## REQUEST ARGUMENTS

- *conn*

  The XCB connection to X11.

- *drawable*

- *coordinate\_mode*

  One of the following values:

  - *XCB\_COORD\_MODE\_ORIGIN*

    Treats all coordinates as relative to the origin.

  - *XCB\_COORD\_MODE\_PREVIOUS*

    Treats all coordinates after the first as relative to the previous coordinate.

## DESCRIPTION

## RETURN VALUE

Returns an *xcb\_void\_cookie\_t*. Errors (if any) have to be handled in the event loop.

If you want to handle errors directly with *xcb\_request\_check* instead, use *xcb\_fill\_poly\_checked*. See **[xcb-requests(3)](/xcb-requests/3.md)** for details.

## ERRORS

This request does never generate any errors.
