Name

XtManageChild — add a widget to its parent’s list of managed children. 

Synopsis

void XtManageChild(w)

    Widget w;

Arguments

wSpecifies the child widget to be managed. 

Description

XtManageChild brings a child widget created with XtCreateWidget under the geometry management of its parent.  A widget cannot be made visible until it is managed. 

XtManageChild constructs a WidgetList of length one and calls XtManageChildren.  Calling XtManageChild or XtManageChildren can be bypassed if widgets are created with XtCreateManagedWidget. 

Note that XtManageChild, XtManageChildren, XtUnmanageChild, and XtUnmanageChildren are low-level routines that are used by generic composite widget building routines.  In addition, composite widgets can provide widget-specific, high-level convenience procedures to let applications create and manage children more easily.
