NAME
XmStringDraw-A compound string function that draws a
compound string in an X window
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
void XmStringDraw (d, w, fontlist, string, gc, x, y, width, alignment, layout_direction, clip)
Display * d;
Window w;
XmFontListfontlist;
XmString string;
GC gc;
Position x;
Position y;
Dimension width;
unsigned charalignment;
unsigned charlayout_direction;
XRectangle* clip;
DESCRIPTION
XmStringDraw draws a compound string in an X Window. If a
compound string segment uses a font list entry that defines
a font set, the graphic context passed to this routine will
have the GC font member left in an undefined state. The
underlying XmbStringDraw function called by this routine
modifies the font id field of the GC passed into it and does
not attempt to restore the font id to the incoming value.
If the compound string segment is not drawn using a font
set, the graphic context must contain a valid font member.
Graphic contexts created by XtGetGC are not valid for this
routine; instead, use XtAllocateGC to create a graphic
context.
d Specifies the display.
w Specifies the window.
fontlist Specifies the font list.
string Specifies the string.
gc Specifies the graphics context to use.
x Specifies a coordinate of the rectangle that
will contain the displayed compound string.
y Specifies a coordinate of the rectangle that
will contain the displayed compound string.

width Specifies the width of the rectangle that will
contain the displayed compound string.
alignment Specifies how the string will be aligned within
the specified rectangle. It is either
XmALIGNMENTBEGINNING, XmALIGNMENTCENTER, or
XmALIGNMENTEND.
layout_direction
Controls the direction in which the segments of
the compound string will be laid out. It also
determines the meaning of the alignment
parameter.
clip Allows the application to restrict the area into
which the compound string will be drawn. If
NULL, no clipping will be done.
