NAME

       XkbAddGeomOverlayRow - Add a row to an existing overlay

SYNOPSIS

       XkbOverlayRowPtr XkbAddGeomOverlayRow (XkbOverlayPtr overlay, XkbRowPtr
              row_under, int sz_keys);

ARGUMENTS

       - overlay
              overlay to be updated

       - row_under
              row to be overlayed in the section overlay overlays

       - sz_keys
              number of keys to reserve in the row

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.

       XkbAddGeomOverlayRow adds one row to the overlay.  The new row contains
       space for sz_keys keys. If row_under specifies a row that doesn’t exist
       on  the  underlying  section,  XkbAddGeomOverlayRow  returns  NULL  and
       doesn’t  change  the overlay.  XkbAddGeomOverlayRow returns NULL if any
       of the parameters is empty or if it was not able to allocate space  for
       the overlay.
