.sp
.if n \{\

.\}
.nf
If dest_w is None, XIWarpPointer moves the pointer by the
offsets (dest_x, dest_y) relative to the current position of
the pointer\&. If dest_w is a window, XIWarpPointer moves the
pointer to the offsets (dest_x, dest_y) relative to the origin
of dest_w\&. However, if src_w is a window, the move only takes
place if the window src_w contains the pointer and if the
specified rectangle of src_w contains the pointer\&.
.fi
.if n \{\
.RE
.\}
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
The src_x and src_y coordinates are relative to the origin of
src_w\&. If src_height is zero, it is replaced with the current
height of src_w minus src_y\&. If src_width is zero, it is
replaced with the current width of src_w minus src_x\&.

There is seldom any reason for calling this function\&. The
pointer should normally be left to the user\&. If you do use this
function, however, it generates events just as if the user had
instantaneously moved the pointer from one position to another\&.
Note that you cannot use XIWarpPointer to move the pointer
outside the confine_to window of an active pointer grab\&. An
attempt to do so will only move the pointer as far as the
closest edge of the confine_to window\&.

XIWarpPointer is identical to XWarpPointer but specifies the
device explicitly\&.

XIWarpPointer can generate a BadDevice and a BadWindow error\&.

BadDevice
       An invalid device was specified\&. The device does not
       exist or is not a pointer device\&.

       A value for a Window argument does not name a defined
