 "NAME"
XDeviceBell - ring a bell on a device supported through the input extension

 "SYNOPSIS"
#include <X11/extensions/XInput.h>



Status XDeviceBell( Display *display,
 XDevice *device,
 XID feedbackclass,
 XID feedbackid,
 int percent);
display
 Specifies the connection to the X server.



device
 Specifies the device with which the bell is associated.



feedbackclass
 Specifies the class of the feedback with which the bell
 is associated.



feedbackid
 Specifies the id of the feedback with which the bell is
 associated.



percent
 Specifies the volume in the range -100 to 100 at which
 the bell should be rung.



 "DESCRIPTION"

.\}

The XDeviceBell request causes the server to ring a bell on the
specified feedback of the specified device, if possible. The
specified volume is relative to the base volume for the bell.
If an invalid device is specified, a BadDevice error will be
returned. The feedbackclass and feedbackid parameters contain
values returned by an XGetFeedbackControl request and uniquely
identify the bell to ring. If a feedbackclass is specified that
does not support a bell, or if a nonexistent feedbackid is
specified, or a percent value is specified that is not in the
range -100 to 100, a BadValue error will be returned.




.\}


.\}

The volume at which the bell is rung when the percent argument
is nonnegative is: base - [(base * percent) / 100] + percent




.\}


.\}

The volume at which the bell rings when the percent argument is
negative is: base + [(base * percent) / 100]




.\}


.\}

To change the base volume of the bell, use
XChangeFeedbackControl.




.\}


.\}

XDeviceBell can generate a BadDevice or a BadValue error.




.\}

 "DIAGNOSTICS"

.\}

BadDevice
 An invalid device was specified. The specified device
 does not exist, or has not been opened by this client
 via XOpenInputDevice.




.\}


.\}

BadValue
 An invalid feedbackclass, feedbackid, or percent value
 was specified.
