- drawable
Drawable to get the screen from.

Description
Creates a pixmap. The pixmap can only be used on the same screen as drawable is on and only with drawables of the same depth.
Return Value
Returns an xcb_void_cookie_t. Errors (if any) have to be handled in the event loop.
If you want to handle errors directly with xcb_request_check instead, use xcb_create_pixmap_checked. See xcb-requests(3) for details.
Errors
- xcb_alloc_error_t
The X server could not allocate the requested resources (no memory?).
