XkbActionCtrls(3)		 XKB FUNCTIONS		     XkbActionCtrls(3)



NAME
       XkbActionCtrls  -  Returns  the	ctrls  fields  of  act converted to an
       unsigned int

SYNOPSIS
       unsigned int XkbActionCtrls macro ( act )

	     XkbCtrlsAction act;

ARGUMENTS
       - act  action from which to extract controls

DESCRIPTION
       Actions associated with the XkbCtrlsAction structure change  the  state
       of the boolean controls.

       The type field can have any one of the values shown in Table 1.


		       Table 1 Controls Action Types

       --------------------------------------------------------------
       Type		    Effect
       --------------------------------------------------------------
       XkbSA_SetControls    A key press enables any boolean controls
			    specified in the ctrls fields that	were
			    not  already  enabled at the time of the
			    key press.	A key release  disables  any
			    controls enabled by the key press.	This
			    action   can   cause   XkbControlsNotify
			    events.
       XkbSA_LockControls   If	the  XkbSA_LockNoLock bit is not set
			    in the flags field, a key press  enables
			    any  controls  specified  in  the  ctrls
			    fields that were not already enabled  at
			    the time of the key press.
			    If the XkbSA_LockNoUnlock bit is not set
			    in the flags field, a key  release	dis-
			    ables  any	controls  specified  in  the
			    ctrls fields that were not already	dis-
			    abled at the time of the key press.
			    This  action can cause XkbControlsNotify
			    events.

       The flags field is composed of the bitwise inclusive OR	of  the  masks
       shown in Table 2.


		       Table 2 Control Action Flags

       --------------------------------------------------------------
       Flag		    Meaning
       --------------------------------------------------------------
       XkbSA_LockNoLock     If	 set,	and   the   action  type  is
			    XkbSA_LockControls, the server only dis-
			    ables controls.
       XkbSA_LockNoUnlock   If	 set,	and   the   action  type  is
			    XkbSA_LockControls,  the   server	only
			    enables controls.

       The  XkbSA_SetControls  action  implements a key that enables a boolean
       control when pressed and disables it when released. The	XkbSA_LockCon-
       trols  action  is  used	to implement a key that toggles the state of a
       boolean control each time it is pressed and  released.  The  XkbSA_Loc-
       kNoLock	and  XkbSA_LockNoUnlock  flags	allow  modifying  the toggling
       behavior to only unlock or only lock the boolean control.

       The ctrls0, ctrls1, ctrls2, and ctrls3  fields  represent  the  boolean
       controls  in  the  enabled_ctrls  field	of the controls structure. Xkb
       macros, to convert between the two formats.

       XkbActionCtrls returns the ctrls fields of act converted to an unsigned
       int.
