NAME

       XmTextFieldPosToXY -- A TextField function that accesses the x and y position of a character position

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/TextF.h>
       Boolean XmTextFieldPosToXY(
       Widget widget,
       XmTextPosition position,
       Position *x,
       Position *y);

DESCRIPTION

       XmTextFieldPosToXY  accesses the x and y position, relative to the upper left corner of the TextField widget, of a given character position
       in the text buffer.

       widget	 Specifies the TextField widget ID

       position  Specifies the character position in the text for which the x and y position is accessed. This is an integer number of	characters
		 from the beginning of the buffer. The first character position is 0.

       x	 Specifies  the pointer in which the x position is returned.  The returned position is the distance from the left side of the wid-
		 get to the left border of the character.  This value is meaningful only if the function returns True.

       y	 Specifies the pointer in which the y position is returned.  The returned position is the distance from the top of the	widget	to
		 the character's baseline.  This value is meaningful only if the function returns True.

RETURN

       This function returns True if the character position is displayed in the TextField widget; otherwise, it returns False, and no x or y value
       is returned.
