spacing

spacing(3MENU)															    spacing(3MENU)

NAME

       menu_spacing - Control spacing between menu items.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <menu.h>
       int set_menu_spacing(MENU *menu,
			    int spc_description,
			    int spc_rows,
			    int spc_columns);
       int menu_spacing(const MENU *menu,
			int* spc_description,
			int* spc_rows,
			int* spc_columns);

DESCRIPTION

       The  function  set_menu_spacing	sets  the  spacing  information for the menu.  Its parameter spc_description controls the number of spaces
       between an item name and an item description.  It must not be larger than TABSIZE.  The menu system puts in the middle of this spacing area
       the  pad  character.   The remaining parts are filled with spaces.  The spc_rows parameter controls the number of rows that are used for an
       item.  It must not be larger than 3.  The menu system inserts the blank lines between item rows, these lines will contain the pad character
       in  the	appropriate  positions.   The spc_columns parameter controls the number of blanks between columns of items.  It must not be larger
       than TABSIZE.  A value of 0 for all the spacing values resets them to the default, which is 1 for all of them.
       The function menu_spacing passes back the spacing info for the menu.  If a pointer is NULL, this specific info is simply not returned.

RETURN VALUE

       Both routines return E_OK on success.  set_menu_spacing may return E_POSTED if the menu is posted, or E_BAD_ARGUMENT if one of the  spacing
       values is out of range.

SEE ALSO

       ncurses(3NCURSES), curses_variables(3NCURSES), menu(3MENU).

NOTES

       The header file <menu.h> automatically includes the header file <curses.h>.

PORTABILITY

       These routines are specific to ncurses.	They were not supported on Version 7, BSD or System V implementations.	It is recommended that any
       code depending on them be conditioned using NCURSES_VERSION.
