XtConfigureWidget(3)             XT FUNCTIONS             XtConfigureWidget(3)

NAME
       XtConfigureWidget, XtMoveWidget, XtResizeWidget - move and resize
       widgets

SYNTAX
       #include <X11/Intrinsic.h>

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

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

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

       void XtResizeWindow(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.
