NAME [Toc] [Back]
XmStringTableProposeTablist - A convenience function that returns a
tab list
SYNOPSIS [Toc] [Back]
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
XmTabList XmStringTableProposeTablist(
XmStringTable strings,
Cardinal num_strings,
Widget widget,
float pad_value,
XmOffsetModel offset_model);
DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
XmStringTableProposeTablist takes an XmStringTable structure
containing tabbed compound strings, information on padding between
columns, and rendering information and returns a tab list that, if
used to render the strings in the table, would cause the strings to
line up in columns with no overlap and with the specified amount of
padding between the widest item in each column and the start of the
next column. Each tab in the tablist would have the same unit type as
units, an offset model of offset_model, and an alignment type of
XmALIGNMENT_BEGINNING.
strings Specifies an array of compound strings.
num_strings
Specifies the number of compound strings in strings.
widget Specifies the widget used for deriving any necessary
information for creating the rendition. In particular, the
XmNunitType of widget will be used to specify the unit type
to be used in determining the amount of padding separating
columns and for the tabs in the proposed tab list. Also,
widget's render table will be used in interpreting rendition
tags within the strings.
pad_value Specifies the value of the amount of padding to be used to
separate columns. The units for this parameter are
specified as the XmNunitType set for the widget parameter.
Refer to the XmNunitType resource of the XmGadget,
XmManager, or XmPrimitive reference page.
offset_model
Specifies the offset model to be used in creating the tabs.
Can be XmABSOLUTE or XmRELATIVE.
RETURN [Toc] [Back]
Returns a new XmTabList. The function allocates space to hold the
returned tab list. The application is responsible for managing the
allocated space. The application can recover the allocated space by
