NAME

XmCreateTemplateDialog − A MessageBox TemplateDialog convenience creation function

SYNOPSIS

#include <Xm/MessageB.h>
Widget XmCreateTemplateDialog (parent, name, arglist, argcount)
Widgetparent;
Stringname;
ArgListarglist;

DESCRIPTION

XmCreateTemplateDialog is a convenience creation function that creates a DialogShell and an unmanaged MessageBox child of the DialogShell. The MessageBox widget’s XmNdialogType resource is set to XmDIALOG_TEMPLATE.  By default, the TemplateDialog widget contains only the separator child.  You can build a customized dialog by adding children to the TemplateDialog. 

You can create the standard MessageBox pushbuttons, Cancel, Help, and OK, by specifying the associated callback and label string resources.  Setting XmNsymbolPixmap or XmNmessageString creates a symbol or message label. 

Use XtManageChild to pop up the TemplateDialog (passing the MessageBox as the widget parameter); use XtUnmanageChild to pop it down. 

parentSpecifies the parent widget ID

nameSpecifies the name of the created widget

arglistSpecifies the argument list

argcountSpecifies the number of attribute/value pairs in the argument list (arglist)

For a complete definition of MessageBox and its associated resources, see XmMessageBox(3X). 

RETURN VALUE

Returns the MessageBox widget ID.
