+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.ZN XCreateGC
+function creates a graphics context and returns a GC.
+The GC can be used with any destination drawable having the same root
+and depth as the specified drawable.
+Use with other drawables results in a
+.ZN BadMatch
+error.
+.LP
+.ZN XCreateGC
+can generate
+.ZN BadAlloc ,
+.ZN BadDrawable ,
+.ZN BadFont ,
+.ZN BadMatch ,
+.ZN BadPixmap ,
+and
+.ZN BadValue
+errors.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XCopyGC
+function copies the specified components from the source GC
+to the destination GC.
+The source and destination GCs must have the same root and depth,
+or a
+.ZN BadMatch
+error results.
+The valuemask specifies which component to copy, as for
+.ZN XCreateGC .
+.LP
+.ZN XCopyGC
+can generate
+.ZN BadAlloc ,
+.ZN BadGC ,
+and
+.ZN BadMatch
+errors.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XChangeGC
+function changes the components specified by valuemask for
+the specified GC.
+The values argument contains the values to be set.
+The values and restrictions are the same as for
+.ZN XCreateGC .
+Changing the clip-mask overrides any previous
+.ZN XSetClipRectangles
+request on the context.
+Changing the dash-offset or dash-list
+overrides any previous
+.ZN XSetDashes
+request on the context.
+The order in which components are verified and altered is server dependent.
+If an error is generated, a subset of the components may have been altered.
+.LP
+.ZN XChangeGC
+can generate
+.ZN BadAlloc ,
+.ZN BadFont ,
+.ZN BadGC ,
+.ZN BadMatch ,
+.ZN BadPixmap ,
+and

+and no error occurs,

+Otherwise, it returns a zero status.
+Note that the clip-mask and dash-list (represented by the

+bits, respectively, in the valuemask)
+cannot be requested.
+Also note that an invalid resource ID (with one or more of the three
+most significant bits set to 1) will be returned for
+.ZN GCFont ,
+.ZN GCTile ,
+and
+.ZN GCStipple
+if the component has never been explicitly set by the client.
+.LP
+The

+Many graphics operations depend on either pixel values or planes in a GC.
+.IN "Pixel value"
+The planes attribute is of type long, and it specifies which planes of the
+destination are to be modified, one bit per plane.
+.IN "Plane" "mask"
+A monochrome display has only one plane and
+will be the least significant bit of the word.
+As planes are added to the display hardware, they will occupy more
+significant bits in the plane mask.
+.LP
+In graphics operations, given a source and destination pixel,
+the result is computed bitwise on corresponding bits of the pixels.
+That is, a Boolean operation is performed in each bit plane.
+The plane_mask restricts the operation to a subset of planes.
+A macro constant
+.ZN AllPlanes
+can be used to refer to all planes of the screen simultaneously.
+The result is computed by the following:
+.LP
+.Ds
+((src FUNC dst) AND plane-mask) OR (dst AND (NOT plane-mask))
+.De
+.LP
+Range checking is not performed on the values for foreground,
+background, or plane_mask.
+They are simply truncated to the appropriate
+number of bits.
+The line-width is measured in pixels and either can be greater than or equal to
+one (wide line) or can be the special value zero (thin line).
+.LP
+Wide lines are drawn centered on the path described by the graphics request.
+Unless otherwise specified by the join-style or cap-style,
+the bounding box of a wide line with endpoints [x1, y1], [x2, y2] and
+width w is a rectangle with vertices at the following real coordinates:
+.LP
+.Ds
+.TA .5i 2.5i
+.ta .5i 2.5i
+[x1-(w*sn/2), y1+(w*cs/2)], [x1+(w*sn/2), y1-(w*cs/2)],
+[x2-(w*sn/2), y2+(w*cs/2)], [x2+(w*sn/2), y2-(w*cs/2)]
+.De
+.LP
+Here sn is the sine of the angle of the line,
+and cs is the cosine of the angle of the line.
+A pixel is part of the line and so is drawn
+if the center of the pixel is fully inside the bounding box
+(which is viewed as having infinitely thin edges).
+If the center of the pixel is exactly on the bounding box,
+it is part of the line if and only if the interior is immediately to its right
+(x increasing direction).
+Pixels with centers on a horizontal edge are a special case and are part of
+the line if and only if the interior or the boundary is immediately below
+(y increasing direction) and the interior or the boundary is immediately
+to the right (x increasing direction).
+.LP
+Thin lines (zero line-width) are one-pixel-wide lines drawn using an
+unspecified, device-dependent algorithm.
+There are only two constraints on this algorithm.
+.IP 1. 5
+If a line is drawn unclipped from [x1,y1] to [x2,y2] and
+if another line is drawn unclipped from [x1+dx,y1+dy] to [x2+dx,y2+dy],
+a point [x,y] is touched by drawing the first line
+if and only if the point [x+dx,y+dy] is touched by drawing the second line.
+.IP 2. 5
+The effective set of points comprising a line cannot be affected by clipping.
+That is, a point is touched in a clipped line if and only if the point
+lies inside the clipping region and the point would be touched
+by the line when drawn unclipped.
+.LP
+A wide line drawn from [x1,y1] to [x2,y2] always draws the same pixels
+as a wide line drawn from [x2,y2] to [x1,y1], not counting cap-style
+and join-style.
+It is recommended that this property be true for thin lines,
+but this is not required.
+A line-width of zero may differ from a line-width of one in which pixels are
+drawn.
+This permits the use of many manufacturers' line drawing hardware,
+which may run many times faster than the more precisely specified
+wide lines.
+.LP
+In general,
+drawing a thin line will be faster than drawing a wide line of width one.
+However, because of their different drawing algorithms,
+thin lines may not mix well aesthetically with wide lines.
+If it is desirable to obtain precise and uniform results across all displays,
+a client should always use a line-width of one rather than a line-width of zero.

+The tile/stipple represents an infinite two-dimensional plane,

+The tile/stipple and clip origins are interpreted relative to the
+origin of whatever destination drawable is specified in a graphics

+For stipple operations where the fill-style is

+Storing a pixmap in a GC might or might not result in a copy
+being made.
+If the pixmap is later used as the destination for a graphics request,
+the change might or might not be reflected in the GC.
+If the pixmap is used simultaneously in a graphics request both as
+a destination and as a tile or stipple,
+the results are undefined.
+.LP
+For optimum performance,
+you should draw as much as possible with the same GC
+(without changing its components).
+The costs of changing GC components relative to using different GCs
+depend on the display hardware and the server implementation.

+The clip-mask restricts writes to the destination drawable.

+If clip-mask is set to
+.ZN None ,
+the pixels are always drawn regardless of the clip origin.
+The clip-mask also can be set by calling the

+functions.
+Only pixels where the clip-mask has a bit set to 1 are drawn.
+Pixels are not drawn outside the area covered by the clip-mask
+or where the clip-mask has a bit set to 0.

+You can set the subwindow-mode to

+both source and destination windows are

+children.
+For

+neither source nor destination window is clipped by inferiors.
+This will result in including subwindow contents in the source
+and drawing through subwindow boundaries of the destination.

+a point is inside if
+an infinite ray with the point as origin crosses the path an odd number
+of times.
+For
+.ZN WindingRule ,
+a point is inside if an infinite ray with the
+point as origin crosses an unequal number of clockwise and
+counterclockwise directed path segments.
+A clockwise directed path segment is one that crosses the ray from left to
+right as observed from the point.
+A counterclockwise segment is one that crosses the ray from right to left
+as observed from the point.
+The case where a directed line segment is coincident with the ray is
+uninteresting because you can simply choose a different ray that is not
+coincident with a segment.

+For both
+.ZN EvenOddRule
+and
+.ZN WindingRule ,
+a point is infinitely small,
+and the path is an infinitely thin line.
+A pixel is inside if the center point of the pixel is inside
+and the center point is not on the boundary.
+If the center point is on the boundary,
+the pixel is inside if and only if the polygon interior is immediately to
+its right (x increasing direction).
+Pixels with centers on a horizontal edge are a special case
+and are inside if and only if the polygon interior is immediately below
