xcb_ungrab_pointer3
Release the pointer
Usage
Request function
xcb_void_cookie_t xcb_ungrab_pointer(xcb_connection_t
*conn,
xcb_timestamp_t
time);
Request arguments
- conn
-
The XCB connection to X11.
- time
-
Timestamp to avoid race conditions when running X over the network.
The pointer will not be released if time is earlier than the last-pointer-grab time or later than the current X server time.
Overview
Releases the pointer and any queued events if you actively grabbed the pointer before using xcb_grab_pointer, xcb_grab_button or within a normal button press.
EnterNotify and LeaveNotify events are generated.
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_ungrab_pointer_checked. See xcb-requests(3) for details.
Errors
This request does never generate any errors.
