X11R6
NAME
  XtConfigureWidget, XtMoveWidget, XtResizeWidget - move and resize widgets

SYNOPSIS
  void XtConfigureWidget(w, x, y, width, height, border_width)
	  Widget w;
	  Position x;
	  Position y;
	  Dimension width;
	  Dimension height;
	  Dimension border_width;

  void XtMoveWidget(w, x, y)
	  Widget w;
	  Position x;
	  Position y;

  void XtResizeWidget(w, width, height, border_width)
	  Widget w;
	  Dimension width;
	  Dimension height;
	  Dimension border_width;

  void XtResizeWindow(w)
	  Widget w;

ARGUMENTS
  width

  height

  border_width
      Specify the new widget size.

  w   Specifies the widget.

  x

  y   Specify the new widget x and y coordinates.

DESCRIPTION
  The XtConfigureWidget function returns immediately if the specified
  geometry fields are the same as the old values. Otherwise,
  XtConfigureWidget writes the new x, y, width, height, and border_width
  values into the widget and, if the widget is realized, makes an Xlib
  XConfigureWindow call on the widget's window.

  If either the new width or height is different from its old value,
  XtConfigureWidget calls the widget's resize procedure to notify it of the
  size change; otherwise, it simply returns.

  The XtMoveWidget function returns immediately if the specified geometry
  fields are the same as the old values. Otherwise, XtMoveWidget writes the
  new x and y values into the widget and, if the widget is realized, issues
  an Xlib XMoveWindow call on the widget's window.

  The XtResizeWidget function returns immediately if the specified geometry
  fields are the same as the old values. Otherwise, XtResizeWidget writes the
  new width, height, and border_width values into the widget and, if the
  widget is realized, issues an XConfigureWindow call on the widget's window.

  If the new width or height are different from the old values,
  XtResizeWidget calls the widget's resize procedure to notify it of the size
  change.

  The XtResizeWindow function calls the XConfigureWindow Xlib function to
  make the window of the specified widget match its width, height, and border
  width. This request is done unconditionally because there is no way to tell
  if these values match the current values.  Note that the widget's resize
  procedure is not called.

  There are very few times to use XtResizeWindow; instead, you should use
  XtResizeWidget.
