the X11 protocol.
</p><p>
The restriction of rectangular windows within the X protocol is a significant
limitation in the implementation of many styles of user interface.  For
example, many transient windows would like to display a
“drop shadow” to give the illusion of 3 dimensions.  As
another example, some user interface style guides call for buttons with
rounded corners; the full simulation of a nonrectangular shape,
particularly with respect to event distribution and cursor shape, is not
possible within the core X protocol.  As a final example, round clocks
and nonrectangular icons are desirable visual addition to the desktop.
</p><p>
This extension provides mechanisms for changing the visible shape of a
window to an arbitrary, possibly disjoint, nonrectangular form.  The intent
of the extension is to supplement the existing semantics, not replace them.
In particular, it is desirable for clients that are unaware of the
extension to still be able to cope reasonably with shaped windows.  For
example, window managers should still be able to negotiate screen
real estate in rectangular pieces.  Toward this end, any shape specified for
a window is clipped by the bounding rectangle for the window as specified by
the window's geometry in the core protocol.  An expected convention would be
that client programs expand their shape to fill the area offered by the
window manager.
</p></div><div class="chapter"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h1 class="title"><a id="description"></a>Chapter 2. Description</h1></div></div></div><p>
Each window (even with no shapes specified) is defined by two regions:  the
<span class="olink">bounding region</span>
and the
<span class="olink">clip region</span>.
The bounding region is the
area of the parent window that the window will occupy (including border).
The clip region is the subset of the bounding region that is available for
subwindows and graphics.  The area between the bounding region and the
clip region is defined to be the border of the window.
</p><p>
A nonshaped window will have a bounding region that is a rectangle spanning
the window, including its border; the clip region will be a rectangle
filling the inside dimensions (not including the border).  In this document,
these areas are referred to as the
<span class="olink">
default bounding region</span> and the
<span class="olink">
default clip region</span>.  For a window with
inside size of <span class="emphasis"><em>width</em></span> by
<span class="emphasis"><em>height</em></span> and border width
<span class="emphasis"><em>bwidth</em></span>, the default bounding and clip
regions are the rectangles (relative to the window origin):
</p><div class="literallayout"><p><br />
bounding.x = -<span class="emphasis"><em>bwidth</em></span><br />
bounding.y = -<span class="emphasis"><em>bwidth</em></span><br />
bounding.width = <span class="emphasis"><em>width</em></span> + 2 * <span class="emphasis"><em>bwidth</em></span><br />
bounding.height = <span class="emphasis"><em>height</em></span> + 2 * <span class="emphasis"><em>bwidth</em></span><br />
<br />
clip.x = 0<br />
clip.y = 0<br />
clip.width = <span class="emphasis"><em>width</em></span><br />
clip.height = <span class="emphasis"><em>height</em></span><br />
</p></div><p>
This extension allows a client to modify either or both of the bounding or
clip regions by specifying new regions that combine with the default
regions.  These new regions are called the
<span class="olink">
client bounding region</span> and the
<span class="olink">
client clip region</span>.  They are specified
relative to the origin of the window and are always defined by offsets
relative to the window origin (that is, region adjustments are not
required when the window is moved).  Three mechanisms for specifying
regions are provided:  a list of rectangles, a bitmap, and an existing
bounding or clip region from a window.  This is modeled on the specification
of regions in graphics contexts in the core protocol and allows a variety
of different uses of the extension.
</p><p>
When using an existing window shape as an operand in specifying a new shape,
the client region is used, unless none has been set, in which case the
default region is used instead.
</p><p>
The <span class="olink">
effective bounding region</span> of a window is
defined to be the intersection of the client bounding region with the default
bounding region.  Any portion of the client bounding region that is not
included in the default bounding region will not be included in the
effective bounding region on the screen.  This means that window managers
(or other geometry managers) used to dealing with rectangular client windows
will be able to constrain the client to a rectangular area of the screen.
</p><p>
Construction of the effective bounding region is dynamic; the client bounding
region is not mutated to obtain the effective bounding region.  If a client
bounding region is specified that extends beyond the current default bounding
region, and the window is later enlarged, the effective bounding region will
be enlarged to include more of the client bounding region.
</p><p>
The <span class="olink">
effective clip region</span> of a window is
defined to be the intersection of the client clip region with both the
default clip region and the client bounding region.  Any portion of the
client clip region that is not included in both the default clip region
and the client bounding region will not be included in the effective clip
region on the screen.
</p><p>
Construction of the effective clip region is dynamic; the client clip region is
not mutated to obtain the effective clip region.  If a client clip region is
specified that extends beyond the current default clip region and the
window or its bounding region is later enlarged, the effective clip region will
be enlarged to include more of the client clip region if it is included in
the effective bounding region.
</p><p>
The border of a window is defined to be the difference between the effective
bounding region and the effective clip region.  If this region is empty, no
border is displayed.  If this region is nonempty, the border is filled
using the border-tile or border-pixel of the window as specified in the core
protocol.  Note that a window with a nonzero border width will never be able
to draw beyond the default clip region of the window.  Also note that a zero
border width does not prevent a window from having a border, since the clip
shape can still be made smaller than the bounding shape.
</p><p>
All output to the window and visible regions of any subwindows will be
clipped to the effective clip region.  The server must not retain window
contents beyond the effective bounding region with backing store.  The window's
origin (for graphics operations, background tiling, and subwindow placement)
is not affected by the existence of a bounding region or clip region.
</p><p>
Areas that are inside the default bounding region but outside the effective
bounding region are not part of the window; these areas of the screen will
be occupied by other windows.  Input events that occur within the default
bounding region but outside the effective bounding region will be delivered as
if the window was not occluding the event position.  Events that occur in
a nonrectangular border of a window will be delivered to that window, just
as for events that occur in a normal rectangular border.
</p><p>An
<span class="olink">
InputOnly</span>
window can have its bounding region set, but it is a
<span class="olink">Match</span>
error to attempt to set a clip region on an
<span class="olink">InputOnly</span>
window or to specify its clip region as a source to a request
in this extension.
</p><p>
The server must accept changes to the clip region of a root window, but
the server is permitted to ignore requested changes to the bounding region
of a root window.  If the server accepts bounding region changes, the contents
of the screen outside the bounding region are implementation dependent.
