     X Version 11 (1 September 1988)        XtConfigureWidget(Xt)



     NAME
          XtConfigureWidget, XtMoveWidget, XtResizeWidget - move and
          resize widgets


     SYNTAX
          void XtConfigureWidget(w, x, y, width, height, border_width)
                Widget w;
                Position x;
                Position y;
                Dimension width;
                Dimension height;
                Dimension border_width;

          void XtMoveWidget(w, x, y)
                Widget w;
                Position x;
                Position y;

          void XtResizeWidget(w, width, height, border_width)
                Widget w;
                Dimension width;
                Dimension height;
                Dimension border_width;

          void XtResizeWindow(w)
                Widget w;


     ARGUMENTS
          width
          height
          border_width
                    Specify the new widget size.

          w         Specifies the widget.

          x
          y         Specify the new widget x and y coordinates.


     DESCRIPTION
          The XtConfigureWidget function returns immediately if the
          specified geometry fields are the same as the old values.
          Otherwise, XtConfigureWidget writes the new x, y, width,
          height, and border_width values into the widget and, if the
          widget is realized, makes an Xlib XConfigureWindow call on
          the widget's window.

          If either the new width or height is different from its old
          value, XtConfigureWidget calls the widget's resize procedure
          to notify it of the size change; otherwise, it simply
          returns.

          The XtMoveWidget function returns immediately if the
          specified geometry fields are the same as the old values.
          Otherwise, XtMoveWidget writes the new x and y values into
          the widget and, if the widget is realized, issues an Xlib
          XMoveWindow call on the widget's window.

          The XtResizeWidget function returns immediately if the
          specified geometry fields are the same as the old values.
          Otherwise, XtResizeWidget writes the new width, height, and
          border_width values into the widget and, if the widget is
          realized, issues an XConfigureWindow call on the widget's
          window.

          If the new width or height are different from the old
          values, XtResizeWidget calls the widget's resize procedure
          to notify it of the size change.

          The XtResizeWindow function calls the XConfigureWindow Xlib
          function to make the window of the specified widget match
          its width, height, and border width. This request is done
          unconditionally because there is no way to tell if these
          values match the current values.  Note that the widget's
          resize procedure is not called.

          There are very few times to use XtResizeWindow; instead, you
          should use XtResizeWidget.
