XWMOVEFOCUS(3Xh)  —  Stardent Computer Inc.

NAME

XwMoveFocus − move the keyboard focus (and the pointer) to a new toplevel widget. 

SYNOPSIS

#include <X11/Intrinsic.h>
#include <Xw/Xw.h> void XwMoveFocus (w)
Widget w;

ARGUMENTS

wThis is the ID of the widget to which the application wishes to move the focus. It should be the toplevel widget in a widget hierarchy and it should be a subclass of XwManager. 

DESCRIPTION

XwMoveFocus is a very specialized function which can be used to move the keyboard and pointer focus to another toplevel widget hierarchy.  It is useful when an application using keyboard traversal has multiple toplevel widget hierarchies and wishes to be able to move between these hierarchies without using the pointer device.  Specifically, this function will warp the pointer to (1,1) in the specified widget and will also make a call to XSetInputFocus (this is necessary for use with window managers using an explicit listener mode). 

ORIGIN
