NAME
       tickit_window_set_steal_input - control whether windows steal all input events


SYNOPSIS
       #include <tickit.h>

       bool tickit_window_is_steal_input(const TickitWindow *win);
       void tickit_window_set_steal_input(TickitWindow *win, bool steal);

       Link with -ltickit.


DESCRIPTION
       tickit_window_is_steal_input()  returns the current state of the input-stealing setting on
       the window. If true, this causes the window to have special behaviour on input events that
       are  likely to be useful to implement popup windows. Specifically, the window receives all
       key events on its parent even before the sibling  with  the  input  focus  receives  them,
       provided  it  is the front-most child of its parent. Additionally, the window will receive
       all mouse events, even those outside of its geometry.

       tickit_window_set_steal_input() changes the value of this setting.

       The initial value is normally false, unless the TICKIT_WINDOW_STEAL_INPUT flag was  passed
       to the tickit_window_new(3) function call that created the window.

       This  function  is  discouraged  in  favour  of using the TICKIT_WINCTL_STEAL_INPUT window
       control with tickit_window_setctl_int(3).


RETURN VALUE
       tickit_window_is_steal_input() returns a boolean. tickit_window_set_steal_input()  returns
       no value.
