XmScreen - The Screen widget class
#include <Xm/Screen.h>
The XmScreen object is used by Motif widgets to store
information that is specific to a screen. It also allows
the toolkit to store certain information on widget hierarchies
that would otherwise be unavailable. Each client has
one XmScreen object for each screen that it accesses.
An XmScreen object is automatically created when the
application creates the first shell on a screen (usually
accomplished by a call to XtAppInitialize or XtAppCreateShell).
It is not necessary to create an XmScreen
object by any other means. An application can use the
function XmGetXmScreen to obtain the widget ID of the
XmScreen object for a given screen.
An application cannot supply initial values for XmScreen
resources as arguments to a call to any function that creates
widgets. The application or user can supply initial
values in a resource file. After creating the first shell
on the screen, the application can use XmGetXmScreen to
obtain the widget ID of the XmScreen object and then call
XtSetValues to set the XmScreen resources.
Classes [Toc] [Back]
Screen inherits behavior and resources from Core.
The class pointer is xmScreenClass.
The class name is XmScreen.
New Resources [Toc] [Back]
The following table defines a set of widget resources used
by the programmer to specify data. The programmer can
also set the resource values for the inherited classes to
set attributes for this widget. To reference a resource by
name or by class in an .Xdefaults file, remove the XmN or
XmC prefix and use the remaining letters. To specify one
of the defined values for a resource in an .Xdefaults
file, remove the Xm prefix and use the remaining letters
(in either lowercase or uppercase, but include any underscores
between words). The codes in the access column
indicate if the given resource can be set at creation time
(C), set by using XtSetValues (S), retrieved by using
XtGetValues (G), or is not applicable (N/A).

An integer between 0 and 100, inclusive, that specifies
a level of perceived brightness for a color.
If the perceived brightness of the background color
is below this level, Motif treats the background as
"dark" when computing default shadow and select
colors. If this resource is specified for a particular
screen, it applies to widgets created on that
screen; otherwise it applies to widgets created on
all screens. The default value is implementation
specific. Specifies the DragIcon used during a
drag operation when the operation is a copy and no
other pixmap is specified by the application. If
NULL, a system default icon is used. Specifies the
DragIcon used to indicate that the cursor is over
an invalid drop site during a drag operation when
no other pixmap symbol is specified by the application.
If NULL, a system default icon is used.
Specifies the DragIcon used during a drag operation
when the operation is a link and no other pixmap
is specified by the application. If NULL, a system
default icon is used. Specifies the DragIcon used
during a drag operation when the operation is a
move and no other pixmap is specified by the application.
If NULL, a system default icon is used.
Specifies the DragIcon used to indicate that the
cursor is not over a drop site during a drag operation
when no other pixmap is specified by the
application. If NULL, a system default icon is
used. Specifies the depth-1 pixmap used as a cursor
when an XmNsourceCursorIcon is not provided by
the DragContext, or it is not usable. If NULL, a
system default icon is used. Specifies the DragIcon
used to indicate that the cursor is over a
valid drop site during a drag operation when no
other pixmap is specified by the application. If
NULL, a system default icon is used. Specifies a
font for use in computing values for XmNhorizontalFontUnit
and XmNverticalFontUnit. When an application
is initialized, this resource can be supplied
in a resource file or through the standard command
line options -fn, -font, and -xrm. An integer
between 0 and 100, inclusive, that specifies a
level of perceived brightness for a color. If the
perceived brightness of the background color is
equal to or below this level, Motif treats the
background as "dark" when computing the default
foreground and highlight colors. If the perceived
brightness of the background color is above this
level, Motif treats the background as "light" when
computing the default foreground and highlight colors.
When the background is "dark", the default
foreground and highlight is white; when the background
is "light", the default foreground and highlight
is black. If this resource is specified for
a particular screen, it applies to widgets created
on that screen; otherwise, it applies to widgets
created on all screens. The default value is
implementation specific. Specifies the horizontal
component of the font units used by XmConvertUnits,
and is used to interpret the values of geometry
resources when the XmNshellUnitType resource of
VendorShell or the XmNunitType resource of Gadget,
Manager, or Primitive has the value
Xm100TH_FONT_UNITS. If no initial value is supplied
for this resource, the default is computed from the
font specified in XmNfont. If no initial value is
supplied for this resource or for XmNfont, the
default is 10.
If a call to XtSetValues specifies a value for XmNhorizontalFontUnit,
this resource is set to that
value. If a call to XtSetValues specifies a value
for XmNfont but not for XmNhorizontalFontUnit, this
resource is set to a value computed from the new
XmNfont.
A horizontal font unit is derived from a font as
follows: If the font has an AVERAGE_WIDTH property,
the horizontal font unit is the AVERAGE_WIDTH property
divided by 10. If the font has no AVERAGE_WIDTH
property but has a QUAD_WIDTH property,
the horizontal font unit is the QUAD_WIDTH property.
If the font has no AVERAGE_WIDTH or
QUAD_WIDTH property, the horizontal font unit is
the sum of the font structure's min_bounds.width
and max_bounds.width divided by 2.3. An integer
between 0 and 100, inclusive, that specifies a
level of perceived brightness for a color. If the
perceived brightness of the background color is
above this level, Motif treats the background as
"light" when computing default shadow and select
colors. If this resource is specified for a particular
screen, it applies to widgets created on
that screen; otherwise, it applies to widgets created
on all screens. The default value is implementation
specific. Sets a variable that controls
the cursor used whenever this application posts a
menu. This resource can be specified only once at
application startup time, either by placing it
within a defaults file or by using the -xrm command
line argument. For example:
myProg -xrm "*menuCursor: arrow"
The menu cursor can also be selected in the program
through the function XmSetMenuCursor. The following
is a list of acceptable cursor names. If the
application does not specify a cursor or if an
invalid name is supplied, the default cursor (an
arrow pointing up and to the right) is used.
X_cursor fleur sailboat

based_arrow_down gumby sb_h_double_arrow

Specifies whether an interactive operation that
moves a window, such as tearing off and dragging a
tear-off menu or moving a window in MWM, displays
an outline of the window or a representation of the
window itself during the move. If the value is
True, the operation displays a representation of
the window during the move. If the value is False,
the operation displays an outline of the window.
Specifies the behavior of an active menu posted in
traversal mode when a subsequent menu button selection
is made outside the posted menu. When the
value is XmUNPOST_AND_REPLAY, the resource unposts
the menu hierarchy and causes the server to replay
the event to the window in which the pointer is
located. When the value is XmUNPOST, the resource
unposts the hierarchy without replaying the event.
Specifies the vertical component of the font units
used by XmConvertUnits and used to interpret the
values of geometry resources when the XmNshellUnitType
resource of VendorShell or the XmNunitType
resource of Gadget, Manager, or Primitive has the
value Xm100TH_FONT_UNITS. If no initial value is
supplied for this resource, the default is computed
from the font specified in XmNfont. If no initial
value is supplied for this resource or for XmNfont,
the default is 10.
If a call to XtSetValues specifies a value for XmNverticalFontUnit,
this resource is set to that
value. If a call to XtSetValues specifies a value
for XmNfont but not for XmNverticalFontUnit, this
resource is set to a value computed from the new
XmNfont.
A vertical font unit is derived from a font as follows:
If the font has a PIXEL_SIZE property, the
vertical font unit is the PIXEL_SIZE property
divided by 1.8. If the font has no PIXEL_SIZE
property but has POINT_SIZE and RESOLUTION_Y properties,
the vertical font unit is the product of
the POINT_SIZE and RESOLUTION_Y properties divided
by 1400. If the font has no PIXEL_SIZE,
POINT_SIZE, or RESOLUTION_Y properties, the vertical
font unit is the sum of the font structure's
max_bounds.ascent and max_bounds.descent divided by
2.2.
