 display
        Specifies the connection to the X server.
 
 device
        Specifies the device that is to be grabbed or released
 
 num_modifiers
        Number of elements in modifiers or modifiers_return
 
 modifiers
        Specifies the set of latched and base modifiers or
        XIAnyModifier to ungrab. The data type is for
        consistency with the respective grab request and the
        status code of the XIGrabModifiers struct is ignored.
 
 modifiers_inout
        Specifies the set of latched and base modifiers or
        XIAnyModifier to grab. Returns the modifiers that could
        not be grabbed and their status code.
 
 grab_window
        Specifies the grab window.
 
 owner_events
        Specifies a Boolean value that indicates whether the are
        to be reported as usual or reported with respect to the
        grab window.
 
 mask
        Specifies the event mask.
 
 grab_mode
        Specifies further processing of events from this device.
        You can pass GrabModeSync or GrabModeAsync.
 
 paired_device_mode
        Specifies further processing of events from the paired
        master device. You can pass GrabModeSync or
        GrabModeAsync. If deviceid specifies a floating slave
        device, this parameter is ignored.
 

DESCRIPTION

 XIGrabEnter and XIGrabFocusIn establish a passive grab. The
 modifier device for a enter grab is the paired master device if
 deviceid specifies a master pointer. Otherwise, the modifier
 device is the device specified with deviceid.
 
 For XIGrabEnter and XIGrabFocusIn, in the future, the device is
 actively grabbed (as for XIGrabDevice, the last-grab time is
 set to the time at which the pointer/focus entered window) if
 the device is not grabbed and the pointer has entered the
 grab_window or the focus has been set to the grab_window when
 the specified modifier keys are logically down on the modifier
 device and no other buttons or modifier keys are logically
 down.
 
 The interpretation of the remaining arguments is as for
 XIGrabDevice. The active grab is terminated automatically when
 the pointer leaves the window or the focus is set to a
 different window (independent of the logical state of the
 modifier keys).
 
 If the device is an attached slave device, the device is
 automatically detached from the master device when the grab
 activates and reattached to the same master device when the
 grab deactivates. If the master device is removed while the
 device is floating as a result of a grab, the device remains
 floating once the grab deactivates.
 
 Note that the logical state of a device (as seen by client
 applications) may lag the physical state if device event
 processing is frozen.
 
 This request overrides all previous grabs by the same client of
 the same type and modifier combinations on the same window. A
 modifiers of XIAnyModifier is equivalent to issuing the grab
 request for all possible modifier combinations (including the
 combination of no modifiers). It is not required that all
 modifiers specified have currently assigned KeyCodes.
 
 If some other client has already issued a XIGrabEnter or
 XIGrabFocusIn  on the same window, a BadAccess error results.
 When using XIAnyModifier, the request fails completely, and a
 XIBadAccess error results (no grabs are established) if there
 is a conflicting grab for any combination. XIGrabEnter and
 XIGrabFocusin have no effect on an active grab.
 
 XIGrabEnter and XIGrabFocusIn can generate BadDevice,
 BadMatch, BadValue, and BadWindow errors.
 
 XIUngrabEnter and XIUngrabFocusIn releases the passive grab on
 the specified window if it was grabbed by this client. A
 modifier of XIAnyModifier is equivalent to issuing the ungrab
 request for all possible modifier combinations, including the
 combination of no modifiers. XIUngrabEnter and XIUngrabFocusIn
 have no effect on an active grab.
 
 XIUngrabEnter and XIUngrabFocusIn can generate BadDevice,
 BadMatch, BadValue and BadWindow errors.
 

DIAGNOSTICS

 BadDevice
        An invalid deviceid was specified.
 
 BadMatch
        This error may occur if XIGrabEnter specified a device
        that has no valuators, or XIGrabFocusIn specified a device
        that has no keys.
 
 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. Any argument defined as a
        set of alternatives can generate this error.
 
 BadWindow
        A value for a Window argument does not name a defined
        Window.
