otherwise, the event is reported with respect to the +grab_window. +Both +.ZN KeyPress +and +.ZN KeyRelease +events are always reported, +independent of any event selection made by the client. +.LP +If the keyboard_mode argument is +.ZN GrabModeAsync , +keyboard event processing continues +as usual. +If the keyboard is currently frozen by this client, +then processing of keyboard events is resumed. +If the keyboard_mode argument is +.ZN GrabModeSync , +the state of the keyboard (as seen by client applications) appears to freeze, +and the X server generates no further keyboard events until the +grabbing client issues a releasing +.ZN XAllowEvents +call or until the keyboard grab is released. +Actual keyboard changes are not lost while the keyboard is frozen; +they are simply queued in the server for later processing. +.LP +If pointer_mode is +.ZN GrabModeAsync , +pointer event processing is unaffected +by activation of the grab. +If pointer_mode is +.ZN GrabModeSync , +the state of the pointer (as seen by client applications) appears to freeze, +and the X server generates no further pointer events +until the grabbing client issues a releasing +.ZN XAllowEvents +call or until the keyboard grab is released. +Actual pointer changes are not lost while the pointer is frozen; +they are simply queued in the server for later processing. +.LP +If the keyboard is actively grabbed by some other client, +.ZN XGrabKeyboard +fails and returns +.ZN AlreadyGrabbed . +If grab_window is not viewable, +it fails and returns +.ZN GrabNotViewable . +If the keyboard is frozen by an active grab of another client, +it fails and returns +.ZN GrabFrozen . +If the specified time is earlier than the last-keyboard-grab time +or later than the current X server time, +it fails and returns +.ZN GrabInvalidTime . +Otherwise, the last-keyboard-grab time is set to the specified time +.Pn ( CurrentTime +is replaced by the current X server time). +.LP +.ZN XGrabKeyboard +can generate +.ZN BadValue +and +.ZN BadWindow +errors. +.LP +The +.ZN XUngrabKeyboard +function +releases the keyboard and any queued events if this client has it actively grabbed from +either +.ZN XGrabKeyboard +or +.ZN XGrabKey . +.ZN XUngrabKeyboard +does not release the keyboard and any queued events +if the specified time is earlier than +the last-keyboard-grab time or is later than the current X server time. +It also generates +.ZN FocusIn +and +.ZN FocusOut +events. +The X server automatically performs an +.ZN UngrabKeyboard +request if the event window for an +active keyboard grab becomes not viewable. +.SH DIAGNOSTICS +.TP 1i +.ZN BadValue +Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted by the request. +Unless a specific range is specified for an argument, the full range defined +by the argument's type is accepted.
