XmCreateScrolledText(3X)      SDK X11 R4.11MU05     XmCreateScrolledText(3X)


NAME
       XmCreateScrolledText--The TextScrolledText convenience creation
       function

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Xm/Text.h>

       Widget XmCreateScrolledText (parent, name, arglist, argcount)
            Widget    parent;
            String    name;
            ArgList   arglist;
            Cardinal  argcount;


DESCRIPTION
       XmCreateScrolledText creates an instance of a Text widget that is
       contained within a ScrolledWindow.  All ScrolledWindow subarea
       widgets are automatically created by this function. The ID returned
       by this function is that of the Text widget.  Use this ID for all
       normal Text operations, as well as those that are relevant for the
       ScrolledText widget.

       The Text widget defaults to single-line text edit; therefore, no
       ScrollBars are displayed.  The Text resource XmNeditMode must be set
       to XmMULTILINEEDIT to display the ScrollBars.  The results of
       placing a Text widget inside a ScrolledWindow when the Text's
       XmNeditMode is XmSINGLELINEEDIT are undefined.

       All arguments to either the Text or the ScrolledWindow widget can be
       specified at creation time using 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.

       This function forces the following initial values for ScrolledWindow
       resources:


         ·  XmNscrollingPolicy is set to XmAPPLICATIONDEFINED.

         ·  XmNvisualPolicy is set to XmVARIABLE.

         ·  XmNscrollBarDisplayPolicy is set to XmSTATIC.

         ·  XmNshadowThickness is set to 0.


       To obtain the ID of the ScrolledWindow widget associated with the
       ScrolledText, 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.


        parent Specifies the parent widget ID

        name   Specifies the name of the created widget

        arglist
               Specifies the argument list

        argcount
               Specifies the number of attribute/value pairs in the argument
               list (arglist)


       For a complete definition of Text and its associated resources, see
       XmText(3X).


RETURN VALUE
       Returns the Text widget ID.
