+.SH NAME
+DMXGetScreenAttributes \- determine back-end screen attributes
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B #include <X11/extensions/dmxext.h>
+.sp
+.nf
+.BI "Bool DMXGetScreenAttributes(Display " *dpy ,
+.BI " int " screen ,
+.BI " DMXScreenAttributes " *attr );
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B DMXGetScreenAttributes()
+returns the attributes for the single DMX screen specified in
+.IR screen .
+.PP
+The
+.I DMXScreenAttributes
+structure is:
+.sp
+.nf
+typedef struct {
+ char *displayName;
+ int logicalScreen;
+
+ unsigned int screenWindowWidth;
+ unsigned int screenWindowHeight;
+ int screenWindowXoffset;
+ int screenWindowYoffset;
+
+ unsigned int rootWindowWidth;
+ unsigned int rootWindowHeight;
+ int rootWindowXoffset;
+ int rootWindowYoffset;
+
+ int rootWindowXorigin;
+ int rootWindowYorigin;
+} DMXScreenAttributes;
+.fi
+.PP
+.I displayName
+is the name used to open the display, either from the
+.BR Xdmx (1)
+command-line or from the configuration file.
+.PP
+.I logicalScreen
+is the value of the screen that that
+.BR Xdmx (1)
+server exports to clients. When Xinerama is in use, this value is
+typically 0 for all values of physicalScreen. If Xinerama is in
+use,
+.I rootWindowXorigin
+and
+.I rootWindowYorigin
+specify where the physical screen is positioned in the global Xinerama
+coordinate system. Otherwise, these values are set to 0.
+.PP
+.IR screenWindowWidth ", " screenWindowHeight ", "
+.IR screenWindowXoffset ", and " screenWindowYoffset
+are a geometry specification (see
+.BR X (7x))
+for the location of the DMX screen on the back-end screen. The
+coordinant system of the back-end display is used for these values.
+.PP
+.IR rootWindowWidth ", " rootWindowHeight ", "
+.IR rootWindowXoffset ", and " rootWindowYoffset
+are a geometry specification (see
+.BR X (7x))
+for the location of the root window on the screen window. The
+coordinant system of the screen window is used. In most cases, the root
+window will have the same geometry as the DMX screen window, and will
+occupy the same area of the back-end display. (This would not be the
+case, for example, if automatic projector alignment is used.)
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+.B DMXGetScreenAttributes()
+returns
+.B True
+unless there is a protocol error.
+.PP
+.B DMXGetScreenAttributes()
+can generate
+.B BadValue
+errors.
