# [EVENT FIELDS](#EVENT_FIELDS)

[*response\_type*](#response_type)

The type of this event, in this case *XCB\_CLIENT\_MESSAGE*. This field is also present in the *xcb\_generic\_event\_t* and can be used to tell events apart from each other.

[*sequence*](#sequence)

The sequence number of the last request processed by the X11 server.

[*format*](#format)

Specifies how to interpret *data*. Can be either 8, 16 or 32.

[*window*](#window)

NOT YET DOCUMENTED.

[*type*](#type)

An atom which indicates how the data should be interpreted by the receiving client.

[*data*](#data)

The data itself (20 bytes max).

# [DESCRIPTION](#DESCRIPTION)

This event represents a ClientMessage, sent by another X11 client. An example is a client sending the *\_NET\_WM\_STATE* ClientMessage to the root window to indicate the fullscreen window state, effectively requesting that the window manager puts it into fullscreen mode.
