NAME
pixmap - Xpm pixmap editor for X
SYNOPSIS
pixmap [-options ...]
DESCRIPTION
The pixmap program is a tool for creating or editing rectangular images made up of colored pixels, i.e.,
pixmaps. Pixmaps are intensively used in X to define window backgrounds, icon images, etc.
The pixmap program can have two different interfaces, a Athena widgets version and a Motif widgets
version.
USAGE
Pixmap displays grid in which each square represents a single pixel in the picture being edited. Squares
can be set, cleared, or inverted (this last operation will be detailed later) directly with the buttons
on the pointer and a menu of higher level operations such as draw line and fill circle is provided to the
side of the grid. Another menu on the top of the window allows files operations (Load, Save, ...), edit
operations (Cut/Copy/Paste, attributes of pixmap editing, ...) and colors operations (drawing color,
attributes of colors, ...). Pixmap uses a Pixmap widget to represent the pixmap image.
Pixmaps are stored as a C string array variable suitable for including in applications, using the format
defined by Arnaud Le Hors in his Xpm library (refer to Xpm manual for format description). This format
allows pixmaps to be used indistinctly on monochrome, grey scale or color displays.
OPTIONS
Pixmap accepts the following options:
-display/-d display
This option specifies the name of the X server to use.
-geometry geometry
This option specifies the placement and size of the pixmap program window on the screen. See X for
details.

This option asks for the usage description of pixmap.
-size WIDTHxHEIGHT
This option specifies the size (width and height) in pixels of the pixmap to be edited.
-squares SIZE
This option specifies the size in display points to use to represent each pixel (a square of SIZE
points).
+grid/-grid
This option indicates that the grid lines in the Pixmap widget should be displayed or not.
-stippled
This option turns off stipple drawing of transparent pixels.
-stipple pixmap
This option specifies the depth 1 pixmap to use to draw transparent pixels.
+axes/-axes
This option indicates that the axes in the Pixmap widget should be displayed or not.
+proportional/-proportional
This option indicates that the pixels in the Pixmap widget should be drawn proportional, i.e. in
squares, or not.

PIXELS EDITING WITH MOUSE
Pixels may be set, cleared, or inverted by pointing to them and clicking one of the buttons indicated
below. Multiple pixels can be changed at once by holding the button down and dragging the cursor across
them. Set pixels are filled with the current color; cleared pixels are filled with white; and inverted
pixels are either set if they were originally cleared or cleared otherwise.
Button 1
This button (usually leftmost on the pointer) is used to set one or more pixels.
Button 2
This button (usually in the middle) is used to invert one or more pixels.
Button 3
This button (usually on the right) is used to clear one or more pixels.
Button 4
This button is used to clear one or more pixels.
Button 5
This button is used to clear one or more pixels.
Every button operation can be changed by means of resources in the .Xdefaults file or application
defaults file (/etc/X11/app-defaults/Pixmap).
MENU COMMANDS
To make defining shapes easier, pixmap provides several commands for drawing and manipulating the pixmap
edited, and commands for file management.
Commands are layed in a vertical bar at the left of the Pixmap widget and in a menu bar at the top of the
window. Most of the drawing commands are located in the left bar, where as file management and other
general commands are located in the top menu bar.
In the left bar, some commands are represented by icons. They are, from left to right and up to down,
Flip horizontally, Up, Flip vertically, Left, Fold, Right, Rotate right (counterclock), Down, Rotate left
(clockwise).
Some commands are also available directly through the keyboard when the mouse cursor is located on the
Pixmap widget. They will be mentionned as an accelerator in the following description.
LEFT BAR COMMANDS
Undo
This command is used to undo the last operation. Only one operation can be undone. The
accelerator of this command is Any<Key>u.
Clear
This command is used to clear all of the pixels in the pixmap as if Button 3 had been dragged
through every pixel in the pixmap. The accelerator of this command is [Shift]<Key>c.
Set This command is used to set all of the pixels in the pixmap to the current color, as if Button 1
had been dragged through every pixel in the pixmap. The accelerator of this command is
[Shift]<Key>s.
Redraw
This command is used to redisplay the pixmap. The accelerator of this command is Ctrl<Key>l.
Copy
This command is used to copy a region of the pixmap from one location to another. When this
command is invoked, the region to copy should
be specified by pressing Button 1, dragging the mouse and releasing Button 1. The region can
now be copied by pressing Button 1 with the cursor located on the region selected, dragging the
mouse and releasing it where the upper left corner of the region should be copied. If a region
was already selected with a Mark command, only the second phase of the copy is necessary. The
accelerator of this command is available when a region has already been selected and is
Ctrl<Btn2Down> to drag the region and Ctrl<Btn2Up> to draw it to point. This accelerated command
is identical to the Paste command available through the Edit menu of the top menu bar.
Move
This command is used to move a region of the pixmap from one location to another. When this
command is invoked, the region to move should be specified by pressing Button 1, dragging the
mouse and releasing Button 1. The region can now be moved by pressing Button 1 with the cursor
located on the region selected, dragging the mouse and releasing it where the upper left corner
of the region should be moved. The initial region is cleared. If a region was already selected
with a Mark command, only the second phase of the move is necessary.
Mark
This command is used to mark a region to move or copy it later (commands Move and Copy above),
or to put it in the Cut&Paste buffer (commands Cut and Copy of the Edit menu of the top menu
bar). When this command is invoked, the region should be specified by pressing Button 1,
dragging the mouse and releasing Button 1. Once marked, the region is highlighted. The
accelerator of this command is Ctrl<Btn1Down> to initiate the selection and Ctrl<Btn1Up> to
finish it.
Unmark
This command is used to unmark a region previously marked. It will unhighlight the region. The
accelerator of this command is Ctrl<Btn3Down>.
Flip horizontally
This command is used to flip horizontally the whole pixmap or the marked region. This means
mirroring horizontally the pixmap image. The mirror is placed at the middle of the pixmap
height. The accelerator of this command is [Shift|Ctrl]<Key>h.
Up This command is used to move the whole pixmap or the marked region up. Pixels at the top of the
pixmap are pushed back at the bottom of the new pixmap. The accelerator of this command is
Any<Key>Up (not available in Motif version).
Flip vertically
This command is used to flip vertically the whole pixmap or the marked region. This means
mirroring vertically the pixmap image. The mirror is placed at the middle of the pixmap width.
The accelerator of this command is Any<Key>v.
Left
This command is used to move the whole pixmap or the marked region left. Pixels at the left of
the pixmap are pushed back at the right of the new pixmap. The accelerator of this command is
Any<Key>Left (not available in Motif version).
Fold
This command is used to "Fold" the pixmap. This means splitting the pixmap image in four squares
(top left, top right, bottom left and bottom right) and inverting them (top becomes bottom, left
becomes right, and so on). "Folding" twice a pixmap does no change. The accelerator of this
command is [Shift|Ctrl]<Key>f.
Right
This command is used to move the whole pixmap or the marked region right. Pixels at the right of
the pixmap are pushed back at the left of the new pixmap. The accelerator of this command is
Any<Key>Right (not available in Motif version).
Rotate right
This command is used to rotate the pixmap image or the marked region right (clockwise) of 90
degrees. Four Rotate right operations does no change. The accelerator of this command is
[Shift|Ctrl]<Key>r.
Down
This command is used to move the whole pixmap or the marked region down. Pixels at the bottom of
the pixmap are pushed back at the top of the new pixmap. The accelerator of this command is
Any<Key>Down (not available in Motif version).
Rotate left
This command is used to rotate the pixmap image or the marked region left (counterclock) of 90
degrees. Four Rotate left operations does no change. The accelerator of this command is
[Shift]<Key>l.
Point
This command is used to set, invert or clear a pixel to the current color. It can be considered
as a mode. After selecting it, pixels are set, inverted or cleared depending on the button used
(see Pixels Editing with the Mouse). If the mouse button remains pressed while dragging the
mouse, more than one pixel can be affected. This command has no accelerator.
Curve
This command is used to draw curved lines (set, cleared or inverted). The curve is drawn while
dragging the mouse. This command can be considered as a mode. Quite the same affect can be
obtained by dragging the mouse in point mode, the main difference resides in the fact that
pixels will be drawn contiguously. This command has no accelerator.
Line
This command is used to draw lines between two points (set, cleared or inverted). The lines are
first drawn highlighted while mouse button remains pressed. This command can be considered as a
mode. This command has no accelerator.
Rectangle
This command is used to draw rectangles between two points defining the two opposite corners of
the rectangle (set, cleared or inverted). The rectangles are first drawn highlighted while
mouse button remains pressed. This command can be considered as a mode. This command has no
accelerator.
Filled Rectangle
This command is used to draw filled rectangles between two points defining the two opposite
corners of the rectangle (set, cleared or inverted). The rectangles outlines are first drawn
highlighted while mouse button remains pressed. This command can be considered as a mode. This
command has no accelerator.
Circle
This command will set, invert or clear the pixels on a circle specified by a center and a point
on the curve. Small circles may not look very round because of the size of the pixmap and the
limits of having to work with discrete pixels. This command can be considered as a mode. This
command has no accelerator.
Filled Circle
This command will set, invert or clear all of the pixels in a circle specified by a center and a
point on the curve. All pixels side and including the circle are set. This command can be
considered as a mode. This command has no accelerator.
Flood Fill
This command will set all clear pixels in an enclosed shape. The enclosed shape is determined by
all the pixels whose color is different from the color of the pixel on which the user has
clicked. If the shape is not closed, the entire pixmap will be filled. This command can be
considered as a mode. This command has no accelerator.
Set Hot Spot
This command allows the specification of a Hot Spot. The Hot Spot is selected by clicking the
Set mouse button. Clicking Invert will invert the Hot Spot, set or reset it depending on its
previous state. Hot spot is useful for cursor pixmaps and are used to reference the sensible
part of the pixmap. This command has no accelerator.
Clear Hot Spot
This command clears the current Hot Spot. This command has no accelerator.
Set Port
This command allows to create a Port extension line graphically. It is part of the customized
Port extension editor developped by Tim Wise (SES Inc.). The Port is set on the pixmap image by
clicking any of the mouse button. This command has no acelerator.
Clear Port
This command allows to remove a Port extension line graphically. It is part of the customized
Port extension editor developped by Tim Wise (SES Inc.). The Port onto which any mouse button
was clicked is cancelled. This command has no accelerator.
Move Port
This command allows to move a Port, that is to change the coordinates specified in the Port
extension line. It is part of the customized Port extension editor developped by Tim Wise (SES
Inc.). The Port onto which any mouse button was pressed is moved with the mouse cursor until the
mouse button is released. This command has no accelerator.
Port Info...
This command allows to edit the information associated to a Port, that is contained in a Port
extension line. It is part of the customized Port extension editor developped by Tim Wise (SES
Inc.). The information associated with the Port onto which any mouse button was clicked is
displayed in a dialog window. It can be edited in that dialog and saved by clicking the "Okay"
button of the dialog. This command has no accelerator.
TOP MENU COMMANDS
Info
This command pops up an info window.
File MENU
Load...
This command is used to load a pixmap file in the pixmap editor. A dialog window is poped up in
which a filename has to be provided. The operation can be interrupted with the Cancel button of
the dialog window. The accelerator of this command is Alt<Key>l.
Insert...
This command is used to load a pixmap in the Cut&Paste buffer of the pixmap editor. The contents
of the pixmap file can then be pasted on the current pixmap. A dialog window is poped up in
which a filename has to be provided. The operation can be interrupted with the Cancel button of
the dialog window. The accelerator of this command is Alt<Key>i.
Save
This command is used to save the current pixmap in the current file edited. By default, and
until otherwise changed by a Filename..., Load... or Save As... operation, or by specifying the
filename on the command line, the filename is scratch. The Filename... command can be used to
change this default filename. The accelerator of this command is Alt<Key>s.
Save As...
This command is used to save the current pixmap in a particular file which name has to be
provided in the dialog window which pops up. The operation can be interrupted with the Cancel
button of the dialog window. The accelerator of this command is Alt<Key>a.
Resize...
This command is used to resize the current pixmap to the width and height specified in the
dialog window which pops up. The syntax is WIDTHxHEIGHT. This operation is different from the
Rescale... one in the way that it just add or remove pixels to the current pixmap without
trying to fit the space correctly with the pixmap image. The operation can be interrupted with
the Cancel button of the dialog window. The accelerator of this command is Alt<Key>r.
Rescale...
This command is used to rescale the current pixmap image in order to make it fit a larger or
smaller space. The new width and height have to be specified in the dialog window which pops up
with the syntax WIDTHxHEIGHT. The operation can be interrupted with the Cancel button of the
dialog window. The accelerator of this command is Alt<Key>e.
Filename...
This command is used to change the current filename, i.e., the name of the file in which the
pixmap will be saved with a Save operation. The new filename has to be provided in the dialog
window which pops up. The operation can be interrupted with the Cancel button of the dialog
window. The accelerator of this command is Alt<Key>f.
Hints comment...
This command pops up a dialog window in which the user can specify the hints section comment of
the pixmap file. The operation can be interrupted with the Cancel button of the dialog window.
The accelerator of this command is Alt<Key>h.
Colors comment...
This command pops up a dialog window in which the user can specify the colors section comment of
the pixmap file. The operation can be interrupted with the Cancel button of the dialog window.
The accelerator of this command is Alt<Key>c.
Pixels comment...
This command pops up a dialog window in which the user can specify the pixels section comment of
the pixmap file. The operation can be interrupted with the Cancel button of the dialog window.
The accelerator of this command is Alt<Key>p.
Quit
This command causes pixmap to display a dialog box asking whether or not it should save the
pixmap (if it has changed) and then exit. Answering yes is the same as invoking Save; no causes
pixmap to simply exit; and cancel will abort the Quit command so that more changes may be made.
The accelerator of this command is Alt<Key>q.
Edit MENU
Image
This command pops up a window in which the real size pixmap is shown. This window can be closed
by clicking the mouse in it or by invoking Image once again. When the window is poped up, an X
mark is displayed in the menu at the left of the Image label. The accelerator of this command
is <Key>i.
Grid
This command toggles the display of the grid. When the grid is displayed, an X mark is added at
the left of the Grid label. The accelerator of this command is <Key>g.
Axes
This command toggles the display of axes. When axes are displayed, an X mark is added at the
left of the Axes label. The accelerator of this command is <Key>a.
Proportional
This command toggles the display in proportional mode of the pixmap. Proportional mode means
that the Pixmap widget won't try to fit all the available space within the interface and will
rather display each pixel in a square, probably leaving some space around the pixmap widget.
When the proportional mode is active, an X mark is added at the left of the Proportional label.
The accelerator of this command is <Key>p.
Zoom
This command is used to zoom some pixels of the current pixmap. The zooming region has to be
selected by the use as a rectangle region just as if he was marking a region (see Mark command).
The operation can be interrupted by invoking any other command. When a region is zoomed, an X
mark is added at the left of the Zoom label. Invoking once again the Zoom command zooms out.
The accelerator of this command is <Key>z.
Zoom In
This command is used to incrementaly zoom into the current pixmap. This side effect of this is
to enlarge the size of a square used to represent a single pixel. The accelerator of this
command is <Key>x.
Zoom Out
This command is used to incrementaly zoom out of the current pixmap. This side effect of this
is to reduce the size of a square used to represent a single pixel. The accelerator of this
command is <Key>y.
Zooming Factor
The command pops up a dialog window in which the user can edit the current zooming factor. The
zooming factor is the size of a square used to represent a single pixel. Enlarging the zooming
factor will zoom into the current pixmap, while reducing it will zoom out of the pixmap. The
accelerator of this command is <Key>f.
Cut When a region is marked, this operation is active. It is used to cut the contents of the region
to put it in the Cut&Paste buffer. The Paste command now becomes active and the marked region is
unmarked. The pixels in the marked region are cleared. This command acts as the Move one when a
region is already marked. The accelerator of this command is Ctrl<Key>c.
Copy
When a region is marked, this operation is active. It is used to copy the contents of the region
in the Cut&Paste buffer. The Paste command now becomes active and the marked region is unmarked.
This command acts as the Copy command of the left border when a region is already marked. The
accelerator of this command is Ctrl<Key>x.
Paste
When a region has been cut or copied in the Cut&Paste buffer, this command is active and can be
used to paste the contents of the Cut&Paste buffer where the mouse button is clicked. The paste
operation takes care of the button used to specify the point where to paste the buffer. The
button can remain pressed to move the buffer around and then be released to paste the buffer at
the current location. A Copy and Paste operation can be accelerated by Ctrl<Btn2Down> to
intiate the operation and Ctrl<Btn2Up> to finish the operation, i.e., paste the buffer. The
accelerator of this command is Ctrl<Key>p.
Crop
When a region is marked, or a file has been inserted in the Cut&Paste buffer, this command will
exchange the current pixmap with the marked region, or the Cut&Paste buffer. Cropping twice does
nothing. The accelerator of this command is Ctrl<Key>o.
Foreground Color MENU
Add color...
This command is used to add a new color in the Color Panel (see below). The color name is
specified in the dialog window which pops up either by a real color name found in rgb.txt file
or by a string like #rrggbb where rr, gg and bb represent the red, green and blue components of
the color in hexadecimal format. The operation can be interrupted with the Cancel button of the
dialog window. The accelerator of this command is Ctrl<Key>a.
Symbolic name...
This command is used to set the symbolic name of the current color. The symbolic name is
entered in the dialog window which pops up. The operation can be interrupted with the Cancel
button of the dialog window. The accelerator of this command is Ctrl<Key>s.
Monochrome name...
This command is used to set the monochrome name of the current color, i.e., the name of the
color to use on monochrome displays. The monochrome name is entered in the dialog window which
pops up. The operation can be interrupted with the Cancel button of the dialog window. The
accelerator of this command is Ctrl<Key>m.
Grey scale 4 name...
This command is used to set the grey scale 4 name of the current color, i.e., the name of the
color to use on grey scale 4 displays. The grey scale 4 name is entered in the dialog window
which pops up. The operation can be interrupted with the Cancel button of the dialog window.
The accelerator of this command is Ctrl<Key>4.
Grey scale name...
This command is used to set the grey scale name of the current color, i.e., the name of the
color to use on grey scale (with more then 4 levels) displays. The grey scale name is entered
in the dialog window which pops up. The operation can be interrupted with the Cancel button of
the dialog window. The accelerator of this command is Ctrl<Key>g.
Color name...
This command is used to set the color name of the current color. This change will be considered
when saving the pixmap but to remain visible, it affects the label of the menu item of the
color. This is useful to directly change a specific color for another one or to allow multiple
symbols to represent the same color (the color can be the same on color display but change on
grey scale or monochrome ones). The color name is entered in the dialog window which pops up.
The operation can be interrupted with the Cancel button of the dialog window. The None (not case
sensitive) name is used to change the pixel representing the transparent color. The accelerator
of this command is Ctrl<Key>n.
Xpm Extensions MENU
Add Extension...
This command pops up a dialog window into which the user provides a name for an extension to be
added in the current pixmap extensions list. The operation can be interrupted with the Cancel
button of the dialog window. If the user confirms with the Okay button, another dialog windows
pops up where the user can edit the extension contents. When the user clicks on the Cancel
button into this extension editing window, the edit operation is interrupted but the extension
is added to the extensions list of the current pixmap. If the user wishes to abort the Add
Extension... operation, he/she needs to click on the Remove button. The edition can otherwise be
confirmed by clicking on the Okay button.
Any extension name
WHen an extension is added in the extensions list of the current pixmap, its name appears in the
Xpm Extensions menu. When selected in the menu, the extension edition window pops up. See above
for its description.
In addition the Motif version defines the status label as two active buttons which operate as Filename...
and Resize... commands.
COLOR PANEL
Colors in pixmap are presented in the Color Panel. Each loaded color is associated a square button,
filled with the color pixel. Scrollbars around the panel allow to scan the whole panel. To choose a
color for drawing, the user must click on a color button. At this time, the current name of the color is
displayed as the title of the Foreground Color menu. A color can also be selected by using Shift<BtnDown>
on a pixel of the current pixmap which color should be used. This accelerator is very useful when
modifying small parts of a pixmap locally.
FILE FORMAT
The Save or Save As... commands store pixmaps using the format defined by Arnaud Le Hors in his Xpm
library (version 3.x). Each pixmap is a C string array variable that can be included and used within
programs, or referred to by X Toolkit pixmap resources (assuming that a String to Pixmap converter has
been registered on the server). Here is an example of a pixmap file:
/* XPM */
static char * plaid[] = {
/* plaid pixmap
* width height ncolors chars_per_pixel */
"22 22 4 2 ",
/* colors */
" c red m white s light_color ",
"Y c yellow m black s lines_in_mix ",
"+ c yellow m white s lines_in_dark ",
"x m black s dark_color ",
/* pixels */
"x x x x x x x x x x x x + x x x x x ",
" x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x ",
"x x x x x x x x x x x x + x x x x x ",
" x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x ",
"x x x x x x x x x x x x + x x x x x ",
"Y Y Y Y Y x Y Y Y Y Y + x + x + x + x + x + ",
"x x x x x x x x x x x x + x x x x x ",
" x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x ",
"x x x x x x x x x x x x + x x x x x ",
" x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x ",
"x x x x x x x x x x x x + x x x x x ",
" x x x x Y x x x ",
" x x x Y x x ",
" x x x x Y x x x ",
" x x x Y x x ",
" x x x x Y x x x ",
"x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x ",
" x x x x Y x x x ",
" x x x Y x x ",
" x x x x Y x x x ",
" x x x Y x x ",
" x x x x Y x x x "
} ;
The plaid name used to reference the pixmap variable is constructed from the name of the file in which is
saved the pixmap. Any directories are stripped off the front of the name and any suffix beginning with a
period is stripped off the end.
The pixmap variable is a string array in which the first string of the array contains the width, height,
number of colors and number of characters per pixel.
The following strings represent the color descriptions, one string per color. A color description can be
composed of one or more characters that represent a pixel, and color display name preceded by the `c'
character, and/or a symbolic name preceded by the `s' character, and/or a monochrome display name
preceded by the `m' character, and or a grey scale 4 levels display name preceded by the string `g4' ,
and/or a grey scale display name preceded by the aharacter `g', specified in any order.
Following color description strings, each string represent a line of the pixmap, composed of symbolic
characters assigned to colors.
USING PIXMAPS IN PROGRAMS
The format of pixmap files is designed to make pixmaps easy to use within X programs, whatever your
display is. The following code could be used to create a pixmap to use as a window background, using the
enhanced Xpm library (version 3.3) from Groupe Bull and assuming that the pixmap was stored in a file
name plaid.xpm:
#include "plaid.xpm"
Pixmap pixmap;
XpmCreatePixmapFromData (display, drawable, plaid, &pixmap,
&pixmap_mask, &attributes);
Additional routines are available for reading in pixmap files and returning the data in the file in
Pixmaps.
WIDGET HIERARCHY
The hierarchy of the pixmap editor is discribed here in order to configure the editor by means of X
resources in a .Xdefaults file. The first widget class is the Athena version one, while the second one,
seperated by a | character, is the Motif version one.

Lines where only appears one or the other type of a widget (like Dialog| or |CascadeButtonGadget) mean
that the widget doesn't exist in one or the other version. In the case of dialogs in the Motif version,
the widgets are created by means of convenient routines which assign the name of the widget depending on
the name of the dialog. By the way, we can't provide with a list of types and names for the substructure
of dialog widgets in the Motif version. However, these shouldn't be often modified.

Pixmaps)
BUGS
If you move the pointer too fast while holding a pointer button down, some pixels may be missed. This is
caused by limitations in how frequently the X server can sample the pointer location.
Loading a pixmap file where the same color is used more than once with different symbols and
descriptions, and writing it will loose information concerning the color used more than once. The pixmap
file plaid given as an example in this man won't be saved that way by pixmap.
Accelerators to menu operations don't seem to work with Athena version.
In the Motif version, the Filename... and Resize... commands open their respective dialog window in a
strange mode. The user has to voluntary (;-) give the focus to the text widget inside to be able to
change its content.
