XtConfigureWidget(3Xt)      X Version 11(Release 3)      XtConfigureWidget(3Xt)


NAME
      XtConfigureWidget, XtMoveWidget, XtResizeWidget - move and resize widgets

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

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

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

      void XtResizeWindow(w)
            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.

XtConfigureWidget(3Xt)      X Version 11(Release 3)      XtConfigureWidget(3Xt)


      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.
