NAME
XmCreateScrolledText — The Text ScrolledText convenience creation
function
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Text.h>
Widget XmCreateScrolledText(
Widget parent,
String name,
ArgList arglist,
Cardinal argcount);
DESCRIPTION
XmCreateScrolledText creates an instance of a Text widget that is
contained within a ScrolledWindow. The ScrolledWindow parent is
created managed. All ScrolledWindow subarea widgets are automatically
created by this function. The ID returned by this function is that of
the Text widget (not the ScrolledWindow widget). Use this widget ID
for all operations on the Text widget. Use the widget ID of the Text
widget’s parent for all operations on the ScrolledWindow. To obtain
the ID of the ScrolledWindow widget associated with the Text widget,
use the Xt Intrinsics XtParent function. The name of the
ScrolledWindow created by this function is formed by concatenating the
letters SW onto the end of the name specified in the parameter list.
The Text widget defaults to single-line text edit; therefore, no
ScrollBars are displayed. The Text resource XmNeditMode must be set to
XmMULTI_LINE_EDIT to display the ScrollBars. The results of placing a
Text widget inside a ScrolledWindow when the Text’s XmNeditMode is
XmSINGLE_LINE_EDIT are undefined.
All arguments to either the Text or the ScrolledWindow widget can be
specified at creation time with this function. Changes to initial
position and size are sent only to the ScrolledWindow widget. Other
resources are sent to the Text or the ScrolledWindow widget as
appropriate. Note that the result of providing the XmNdestroyCallback
resource in the creation arglist is unspecified. The application should
use the XtAddCallback function to add callbacks to the appropriate
widget (Text or ScrolledWindow) after creating it.
This function forces the following initial values for ScrolledWindow
resources:
· XmNscrollingPolicy is set to XmAPPLICATION_DEFINED.
· XmNvisualPolicy is set to XmVARIABLE.
· XmNscrollBarDisplayPolicy is set to XmSTATIC.
· XmNshadowThickness is set to 0 (zero).
