       plane mask, and function components for the specified GC.

       XSetState can generate BadAlloc, BadGC, and BadValue
       errors.

       XSetFunction sets a specified value in the specified GC.

       XSetFunction can generate BadAlloc, BadGC, and BadValue
       errors.

       The XSetPlaneMask function sets the plane mask in the
       specified GC.

       XSetPlaneMask can generate BadAlloc and BadGC errors.

       The XSetForeground function sets the foreground in the
       specified GC.

       XSetForeground can generate BadAlloc and BadGC errors.

       The XSetBackground function sets the background in the
       specified GC.

       XSetBackground can generate BadAlloc and BadGC errors.

DIAGNOSTICS
       BadAlloc	 The server failed to allocate the requested
		 resource or server memory.

       BadGC	 A value for a GContext argument does not name a
		 defined GContext.

       BadValue	 Some numeric value falls outside the range of
		 values accepted by the request.  Unless a spe
		 cific range is specified for an argument, the
		 full range defined by the argument's type is
		 accepted.  Any argument defined as a set of
		 alternatives can generate this error.
