NAME
XmCreateScrolledText - the Text ScrolledText
convenience creation function.
AES SUPPORT LEVEL
full-use
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 XmMULTI-LINE-EDIT
to display the ScrollBars.
Other aspects of the appearance and behavior of the
ScrolledText should be controlled by using the
ScrolledWindow widget resources. For instance, if an
application writer wishes to specify the x,y location
of a ScrolledText within a larger manager, set the XmNx
and XmNy resources of the ScrolledWindow rather than of
the Text widget.
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.
