NAME

       XkbSetNamedIndicator  -  Names an indicator if it is not already named;
       toggles the state of the indicator; sets the indicator to  a  specified
       state and sets the indicator map for the indicator

SYNOPSIS

       Bool XkbSetNamedIndicator (Display *dpy, unsigned int device_spec, Atom
              name,  Bool   change_state,   Bool   state,   Bool   create_new,
              XkbIndicatorMapPtr map);

ARGUMENTS

       - dpy  connection to the X server

       - device_spec
              device ID, or XkbUseCoreKbd

       - name name of the indicator to change

       - change_state
              whether to change the indicator state or not

       - state
              desired new state for the indicator

       - create_new
              whether  a  new  indicator  with  the  specified  name should be
              created when necessary

       - map  new map for the indicator

DESCRIPTION

       If a compatible version of the Xkb extension is not  available  in  the
       server,  XkbSetNamedIndicator  returns  False.  Otherwise,  it  sends a
       request to the X server to change the indicator specified by  name  and
       returns True.

       If  change_state  is  True,  and  the optional parameter, state, is not
       NULL, XkbSetNamedIndicator tells the server to change the state of  the
       named indicator to the value specified by state.

       If an indicator with the name specified by name does not already exist,
       the create_new parameter tells the server whether it  should  create  a
       new  named indicator. If create_new is True, the server finds the first
       indicator that doesn’t have a name and gives it the name  specified  by
       name.     If    the    optional    parameter,   map,   is   not   NULL,
       XkbSetNamedIndicator tells the server to change the indicator’s map  to
       the values specified in map.

       In    addition,   it   can   also   generate   XkbIndicatorStateNotify,
       XkbIndicatorMapNotify, and XkbNamesNotify events.

RETURN VALUES

       True           The XkbSetNamedIndicator  function  returns  True  if  a
                      compatible  version of the Xkb extension is available in
                      the server.

       False          The XkbSetNamedIndicator function  returns  False  if  a
                      compatible version of the Xkb extension is not available
                      in the server.

       BadImplementation
