.SH ARGUMENTS
.IP \fIclass\fP 1i
Specifies the class of the screen.
.IP \fIdepth\fP 1i
Specifies the depth of the screen.
.IP \fIdisplay\fP 1i
Specifies the connection to the X server.
.IP \fInitems_return\fP 1i
Returns the number of matching visual structures.
.IP \fIscreen\fP 1i
Specifies the screen.
.IP \fIvisual\fP 1i
Specifies the visual type.
.IP \fIvinfo_mask\fP 1i
Specifies the visual mask value.
.IP \fIvinfo_return\fP 1i
Returns the matched visual information.
.IP \fIvinfo_template\fP 1i
Specifies the visual attributes that are to be used in matching the visual
structures.
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.ZN XGetVisualInfo
function returns a list of visual structures that have attributes
equal to the attributes specified by vinfo_template.
If no visual structures match the template using the specified vinfo_mask,
.ZN XGetVisualInfo
returns a NULL.
To free the data returned by this function, use
.ZN XFree .
.LP
The
.ZN XMatchVisualInfo
function returns the visual information for a visual that matches the specified
depth and class for a screen.
Because multiple visuals that match the specified depth and class can exist,
the exact visual chosen is undefined.
If a visual is found,
.ZN XMatchVisualInfo
returns nonzero and the information on the visual to vinfo_return.
Otherwise, when a visual is not found,
.ZN XMatchVisualInfo
returns zero.
.LP
The
.ZN XVisualIDFromVisual
function returns the visual ID for the specified visual type.
.SH STRUCTURES
The
.ZN XVisualInfo
structure contains:
