okay bestie, welcome to XPresentNotifyMSC(3) from X Version 11 — it’s giving X Present Extension, and we’re gonna get you fluent in it 💅✨

🎀 NAME 🎀

XPresentNotifyMSC — the X Present Extension cutie that asks the server to send you a PresentCompleteNotifyEvent later, on purpose, with matching vibes 🌸

🦋 SYNTAX 🦋

#include <X11/extensions/Xpresent.h>

void XPresentNotifyMSC (Display *display,
     Window window,
     uint32_t serial,
     uint64_t target_msc,
     uint64_t divisor,
     uint64_t remainder);

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so XPresentNotifyMSC requests that the X server specified by display deliver a PresentCompleteNotifyEvent with kind PresentCompleteKindNotifyMSC after the time specified by target-msc, divisor and remainder. literally scheduling your little event glow-up ⭐

serial is an arbitrary client-specified value which will be returned in the event so that the client can associate the event and request. bestie, it’s your personal lil tracking number 🎀

If target-msc is greater than the current Media Stream Counter (msc) for window, the event will be delivered at (or after) the target-msc field. Otherwise, the event delivery will occur after the next field where msc % divisor == remainder. math but make it fashion 🔥

If window is destroyed before the event is delivered, then the event delivery will not be completed. no event for a gone window, periodt 💀
