Inheritance diagram for Gdk::Display:

[legend]
List of all members.

## Detailed Description

Gdk::Display object's purpose is two fold: To grab/ungrab keyboard focus and mouse pointer To manage and provide information about the Gdk::Screen(s) available for this Gdk::Display.

Gdk::Display objects are the GDK representation of the X Display which can be described as a workstation consisting of a keyboard a pointing device (such as a mouse) and one or more screens. It is used to open and keep track of various Gdk::Screen objects currently instantiated by the application. It is also used to grab and release the keyboard and the mouse pointer.

| ) |

void Gdk::Display::store_clipboard | ( | const Glib::RefPtr<Gdk::Window>& | clipboard_window,
|  | guint32 | time_
| ) |

bool Gdk::Display::supports_clipboard_persistence | ( |  | ) | const

| Returns whether the speicifed display supports clipboard persistance; i.e. if it's possible to store the clipboard data after an application has quit. On X11 this checks if a clipboard daemon is running. Returns: `true` if the display supports clipboard persistance. Since gtkmm 2.6:

void Gdk::Display::sync | ( |  | ) |

| Flushes any requests queued for the windowing system and waits until all requests have been handled. This is often used for making sure that the display is synchronized with the current state of the program. Calling sync() before gdk_error_trap_pop() makes sure that any errors generated from earlier requests are handled before the error trap is removed. This is most useful for X11. On windowing systems where requests are handled synchronously, this function will do nothing. Since gtkmm 2.2:

GdkDisplayPointerHooks* Gdk::Display::unset_pointer_hooks | ( |  | ) |

void Gdk::Display::warp_pointer | ( | const Glib::RefPtr<Screen>& | screen,
|  | int | x,
|  | int | y
| ) |

  | Warps the pointer of display to the point x , y on the screen screen , unless the pointer is confined to a window by a grab, in which case it will be moved as far as allowed by the grab. Warping the pointer creates events as if the user had moved the mouse instantaneously to the destination. Note that the pointer should normally be under the control of the user. This function was added to cover some rare use cases like keyboard navigation support for the color picker in the Gtk::ColorSelectionDialog. Since gtkmm 2.8: Parameters:
  | screen | The screen of display to warp the pointer to.
  | x | The x coordinate of the destination.
  | y | The y coordinate of the destination.
