Details

An input shape is typically used with RGBA windows. The alpha channel of the window defines which pixels are invisible and allows for nicely antialiased borders, and the input shape controls where the window is "clickable". On the X11 platform, this requires version 1.1 of the shape extension. On the Win32 platform, this functionality is not present and the function does nothing. Since 2.10
