NAME
XmScaleSetTicks — A Scale function that controls tick marks
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Scale.h>
void XmScaleSetTicks(
Widget scale,
int big_every,
Cardinal num_medium,
Cardinal num_small,
Dimension size_big,
Dimension size_medium,
Dimension size_small);
DESCRIPTION
XmScaleSetTicks controls the number, location, and size of the tick
marks on a Scale. Each tick mark is a SeparatorGadget oriented
perpendicular to the Scale’s orientation. For example, if the Scale is
oriented horizontally, the tick marks will be oriented vertically.
If you specify tick marks for a Scale and then change the Scale’s
orientation, you will have to do the following:
· Remove all the tick marks. To remove tick marks from a Scale, you
must destroy (with XtDestroyChildren) the SeparatorGadget tick
marks. The first two children of a Scale are its title and
scroll bar, and all additional children are tick marks.
· Recreate the tick marks by calling XmScaleSetTicks.
scale Specifies the Scale widget ID that is getting the tick marks.
big_every Specifies the number of scale values between big ticks.
num_medium
Specifies the number of medium ticks between big values.
num_small Specifies the number of small ticks between medium values.
size_big Specifies the size (either width or height) of the big ticks.
size_medium
Specifies the size (either width or height) of the medium
ticks.
size_small
Specifies the size (either width or height) of the small
ticks.
