NAME
XmGadget - The Gadget widget class
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
DESCRIPTION
Gadget is a widget class used as a supporting superclass for other gadget
classes. It handles shadow-border drawing and highlighting, traversal
activation and deactivation, and various callback lists needed by gadgets.
The color and pixmap resources defined by XmManager are directly used by
gadgets. If XtSetValues is used to change one of the resources for a
manager widget, all of the gadget children within the manager also change.
Classes
Gadget inherits behavior and resources from Object and RectObj classes.
The class pointer is xmGadgetClass.
The class name is XmGadget.
New Resources
The following table defines a set of widget resources used by the
programmer to specify data. The programmer can also set the resource
values for the inherited classes to set attributes for this widget. To
reference a resource by name or by class in a .Xdefaults file, remove the
XmN or XmC prefix and use the remaining letters. To specify one of the
defined values for a resource in a .Xdefaults file, remove the Xm prefix
and use the remaining letters (in either lowercase or uppercase, but
include any underscores between words). The codes in the access column
indicate if the given resource can be set at creation time (C), set by
using XtSetValues (S), retrieved by using XtGetValues (G), or is not
applicable (N/A).
XmGadget Resource Set

Type: Pixel
Access: G
XmNhighlightOnEnter
Class: XmCHighlightOnEnter
Default: False
Type: Boolean

XmNhighlightThickness
Class: XmCHighlightThickness
Default: 2
Type: Dimension
Access: CSG

Access: CSG
XmNshadowThickness
Class: XmCShadowThickness
Default: 2
Type: Dimension
Access: CSG
XmNtopShadowColor
Class: XmCTopShadowColor
Default: dynamic
Type: Pixel
Access: G
XmNtraversalOn
Class: XmCTraversalOn
Default: True
Type: Boolean
Access: CSG
XmNunitType
Class: XmCUnitType
Default: dynamic
Type: unsigned char
Access: CSG
XmNuserData
Class: XmCUserData
Default: NULL
Type: XtPointer
Access: CSG
XmNbottomShadowColor
Contains the color to use to draw the bottom and right sides of the
border shadow.
XmNhelpCallback
Specifies the list of callbacks that is called when the help key
sequence is pressed. The reason sent by the callback is XmCR_HELP.
XmNhighlightColor
Contains the color of the highlighting rectangle.
XmNhighlightOnEnter
Specifies if the highlighting rectangle is drawn when the cursor moves
into the widget. If the shell's focus policy is XmEXPLICIT, this
resource is ignored, and the widget is highlighted when it has the
focus. If the shell's focus policy is XmPOINTER and if this resource is
True, the highlighting rectangle is drawn when the cursor moves into
the widget. If the shell's focus policy is XmPOINTER and if this
resource is False, the highlighting rectangle is not drawn when the
cursor moves into the widget. The default is False.
XmNhighlightThickness
Specifies the thickness of the highlighting rectangle.
XmNnavigationType
Determines whether the widget is a tab group.
· XmNONE indicates that the widget is not a tab group.
· XmTAB_GROUP indicates that the widget is a tab group, unless
another widget in the hierarchy has an XmNnavigationType of
XmEXCLUSIVE_TAB_GROUP.
· XmSTICKY_TAB_GROUP indicates that the widget is a tab group, even
if another widget in the hierarchy has an XmNnavigationType of
XmEXCLUSIVE_TAB_GROUP.
· XmEXCLUSIVE_TAB_GROUP indicates that the widget is a tab group and
that widgets in the hierarchy whose XmNnavigationType is
XmTAB_GROUP are not tab groups.
When a parent widget has an XmNnavigationType of
XmEXCLUSIVE_TAB_GROUP, traversal of non-tab-group widgets within
the group is based on the order of those widgets in their parent's
XmNchildren list.
When any widget in a hierarchy has an XmNnavigationType of
XmEXCLUSIVE_TAB_GROUP, traversal of tab groups in the hierarchy
proceeds to widgets in the order in which their XmNnavigationType
resources were specified as XmEXCLUSIVE_TAB_GROUP or
XmSTICKY_TAB_GROUP, whether by creating the widgets with that
value, by calling XtSetValues, or by calling XmAddTabGroup.
XmNshadowThickness
Specifies the size of the drawn border shadow.
XmNtopShadowColor
Contains the color to use to draw the top and left sides of the border
shadow.
XmNtraversalOn
Specifies traversal activation for this gadget.
XmNunitType
Provides the basic support for resolution independence. It defines the
type of units a widget uses with sizing and positioning resources. If
the widget's parent is a subclass of XmManager and if the XmNunitType
resource is not explicitly set, it defaults to the unit type of the
parent widget. If the widget's parent is not a subclass of XmManager,
the resource has a default unit type of XmPIXELS.
XmNunitType can have the following values:
· XmPIXELS--all values provided to the widget are treated as normal
pixel values.
· Xm100TH_MILLIMETERS--all values provided to the widget are treated
as 1/100 millimeter.
· Xm1000TH_INCHES--all values provided to the widget are treated as
1/1000 inch.
· Xm100TH_POINTS--all values provided to the widget are treated as
1/100 point. A point is a unit used in text processing
applications and is defined as 1/72 inch.
· Xm100TH_FONT_UNITS--all values provided to the widget are treated
as 1/100 of a font unit. A font unit has horizontal and vertical
components. These are the values of the XmScreen resources
XmNhorizontalFontUnit and XmNverticalFontUnit.
XmNuserData
Allows the application to attach any necessary specific data to the
gadget. This is an internally unused resource.
Inherited Resources
Gadget inherits the following resources from the named superclass. For a
complete description of each resource, refer to the man page for that
superclass.
RectObj Resource Set
XmNancestorSensitive
Class: XmCSensitive
Default: dynamic
Type: Boolean
Access: G
XmNborderWidth
Class: XmCBorderWidth
Default: 0
Type: Dimension
Access: CSG
XmNheight
Class: XmCHeight
Default: dynamic
Type: Dimension
Access: CSG
XmNsensitive
Class: XmCSensitive
Default: True
Type: Boolean
Access: CSG
XmNwidth
Class: XmCWidth
Default: dynamic
Type: Dimension
Access: CSG
XmNx
Class: XmCPosition
Default: 0
Type: Position
Access: CSG
XmNy
Class: XmCPosition
Default: 0
Type: Position
Access: CSG
Object Resource Set
XmNdestroyCallback
Class: XmCCallback
Default: NULL
Type: XtCallbackList
Access: C
Callback Information
A pointer to the following structure is passed to each callback:
typedef struct
{
int reason;
XEvent * event;
} XmAnyCallbackStruct;
reason
Indicates why the callback was invoked. For this callback, reason is
set to XmCR_HELP.
event
Points to the XEvent that triggered the callback.
Behavior
Gadgets cannot have translations associated with them. Because of this, a
Gadget's behavior is determined by the Manager widget into which the Gadget
is placed. If focus is on a Gadget, events are passed to the Gadget by its
Manager.
