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.
