WMShell(3X) UNIX System V WMShell(3X)
NAME
WMShell-The WMShell widget class
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
#include <X11/Shell.h>
DESCRIPTION
WMShell is a top-level widget that encapsulates the
interaction with the window manager.
Classes
WMShell inherits behavior and resources from Core,
Composite, and Shell classes.
The class pointer is wmShellWidgetClass.
The class name is WMShell.
New Resources
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 a .Xdefaults file, remove the XmN or XmC
prefix and use the remaining letters. To specify one of the
defined values for a resource in a .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).

XmNbaseHeight
Specifies the base for a progression of preferred
heights for the window manager to use in sizing
the widget. The preferred heights are
XmNbaseHeight plus integral multiples of
XmNheightInc, with a minimum of XmNminHeight and a
maximum of XmNmaxHeight. If an initial value is
not supplied for XmNbaseHeight but is supplied for
XmNbaseWidth, the value of XmNbaseHeight is set to
0 when the widget is realized.
XmNbaseWidth
Specifies the base for a progression of preferred
widths for the window manager to use in sizing the
widget. The preferred widths are XmNbaseWidth
plus integral multiples of XmNwidthInc, with a
minimum of XmNminWidth and a maximum of
XmNmaxWidth. If an initial value is not supplied
for XmNbaseWidth but is supplied for
XmNbaseHeight, the value of XmNbaseWidth is set to
0 when the widget is realized.
XmNheightInc
Specifies the increment for a progression of
preferred heights for the window manager to use in
sizing the widget. The preferred heights are
XmNbaseHeight plus integral multiples of
XmNheightInc, with a minimum of XmNminHeight and a
maximum of XmNmaxHeight. If an initial value is
not supplied for XmNheightInc but is supplied for
XmNwidthInc, the value of XmNheightInc is set to 1
when the widget is realized.
XmNiconMask
2 (printed 6/8/92)
WMShell(3X) UNIX System V WMShell(3X)
Specifies a bitmap that could be used by the
window manager to clip the XmNiconPixmap bitmap to
make the icon nonrectangular.
XmNiconPixmap
Specifies a bitmap that could be used by the
window manager as the application's icon.
XmNiconWindow
Specifies the ID of a window that could be used by
the window manager as the application's icon.
XmNiconX Specifies a suitable place to put the
application's icon; this is a hint to the window
manager in root window coordinates. Since the
window manager controls icon placement policy,
this may be ignored. If no initial value is
specified, the value is set to -1 when the widget
is realized.
XmNiconY Specifies a suitable place to put the
application's icon; this is a hint to the window
manager in root window coordinates. Since the
window manager controls icon placement policy,
this may be ignored. If no initial value is
specified, the value is set to -1 when the widget
is realized.
XmNinitialState
Specifies the state in which the application
wishes the widget instance to start. It must be
one of the constants NormalState or IconicState.
XmNinput Specifies the application's input model for this
widget and its descendants. The meaning of a True
or False value for this resource depends on the
presence or absence of a WM_TAKE_FOCUS atom in the
WM_PROTOCOLS property:
Input Model XmNinput WM_TAKE_FOCUS
__________________________________________
No input False Absent
Passive True Absent
Locally active True Present
Globally active False Present
For more information on input models, see the X
Consortium Standard Inter-Client Communication
Conventions Manual.
XmNmaxAspectX
Specifies the numerator of the maximum aspect
3 (printed 6/8/92)
WMShell(3X) UNIX System V WMShell(3X)
ratio (X/Y) that the application wishes the widget
instance to have.
XmNmaxAspectY
Specifies the denominator of the maximum aspect
ratio (X/Y) that the application wishes the widget
instance to have.
XmNmaxHeight
Specifies the maximum height that the application
wishes the widget instance to have. If an initial
value is not supplied for XmNmaxHeight but is
supplied for XmNmaxWidth, the value of
XmNmaxHeight is set to 32767 when the widget is
realized.
XmNmaxWidth
Specifies the maximum width that the application
wishes the widget instance to have. If an initial
value is not supplied for XmNmaxWidth but is
supplied for XmNmaxHeight, the value of
XmNmaxWidth is set to 32767 when the widget is
realized.
XmNminAspectX
Specifies the numerator of the minimum aspect
ratio (X/Y) that the application wishes the widget
instance to have.
XmNminAspectY
Specifies the denominator of the minimum aspect
ratio (X/Y) that the application wishes the widget
instance to have.
XmNminHeight
Specifies the minimum height that the application
wishes the widget instance to have. If an initial
value is not supplied for XmNminHeight but is
supplied for XmNminWidth, the value of
XmNminHeight is set to 1 when the widget is
realized.
XmNminWidth
Specifies the minimum width that the application
wishes the widget instance to have. If an initial
value is not supplied for XmNminWidth but is
supplied for XmNminHeight, the value of
XmNminWidth is set to 1 when the widget is
realized.
XmNtitle Specifies the application name to be displayed by
the window manager. The default is the icon name
4 (printed 6/8/92)
WMShell(3X) UNIX System V WMShell(3X)
if specified, otherwise the name of the
application.
XmNtitleEncoding
Specifies a property type that represents the
encoding of the XmNtitle string. If a language
procedure has been set, the default is None;
otherwise, the default is XA_STRING. When the
widget is realized, if the value is None, the
corresponding name is assumed to be in the current
locale. The name is passed to
XmbTextListToTextProperty with an encoding style
of XStdICCTextStyle. The resulting encoding is
"STRING" if the name is fully convertible to
"STRING," otherwise "COMPOUND_TEXT." The values
of the encoding resources are not changed; they
remain None.
XmNtransient
Specifies a Boolean value that is True if the
widget instance is transient, typically a popup on
behalf of another widget. The window manager may
treat a transient widget's window differently from
other windows. For example, a window manager may
not iconify a transient window separately from its
associated application. Applications and users
should not normally alter this resource.
XmNwaitForWm
When True, specifies that the Intrinsics waits the
length of time given by the XmNwmTimeout resource
for the window manager to respond to certain
actions before assuming that there is no window
manager present. This resource is altered by the
Intrinsics as it receives, or fails to receive,
responses from the window manager.
XmNwidthInc
Specifies the base for a progression of preferred
widths for the window manager to use in sizing the
widget. The preferred widths are XmNbaseWidth
plus integral multiples of XmNwidthInc, with a
minimum of XmNminWidth and a maximum of
XmNmaxWidth. If an initial value is not supplied
for XmNwidthInc but is supplied for XmNheightInc,
the value of XmNwidthInc is set to 1 when the
widget is realized.
XmNwindowGroup
Specifies the ID of a window with which this
widget instance is associated. By convention,
this window is the "leader" of a group of windows.
5 (printed 6/8/92)
WMShell(3X) UNIX System V WMShell(3X)
A window manager may treat all windows in a group
in some way; for example, it may always move or
iconify them together.
If no initial value is specified, the value is set
to the window of the first realized ancestor
widget in the parent hierarchy when the widget is
realized. If a value of XtUnspecifiedWindowGroup
is specified, no window group is set.
XmNwinGravity
Specifies the window gravity for use by the window
manager in positioning the widget. If no initial
value is specified, the value is set when the
widget is realized. If XmNgeometry is not NULL,
XmNwinGravity is set to the window gravity
returned by XWMGeometry. Otherwise, XmNwinGravity
is set to NorthWestGravity.
XmNwmTimeout
Specifies the length of time that the Intrinsics
waits for the window manager to respond to certain
actions before assuming that there is no window
manager present. The value is in milliseconds and
must not be negative.
