NAME

       XmCreatePulldownMenu -- A RowColumn widget convenience creation function

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/RowColumn.h>
       Widget XmCreatePulldownMenu(
       Widget parent,
       String name,
       ArgList arglist,
       Cardinal argcount);

DESCRIPTION

       XmCreatePulldownMenu creates an instance of a RowColumn widget of type XmMENU_PULLDOWN and returns the associated widget ID.

       parent	 Specifies the parent widget ID

       name	 Specifies the name of the created widget

       arglist	 Specifies the argument list

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

       Specifies the number of attribute/value pairs in the argument list (arglist).  When this function is used to create the Pulldown menu pane,
       a MenuShell widget is automatically created as the parent of the menu pane. If the widget specified by the parent parameter is a Popup or a
       Pulldown  menu  pane, the MenuShell widget is created as a child of the parent MenuShell; otherwise, it is created as a child of the speci-
       fied parent widget.

       XmCreatePulldownMenu is provided as a convenience function for creating RowColumn widgets configured to operate as Pulldown menu panes  and
       is not implemented as a separate widget class.

       A  Pulldown  menu pane displays a 3-D shadow, unless the feature is disabled by the application.  The shadow appears around the edge of the
       menu pane.

       A Pulldown menu pane is used with submenus that are to be attached to a CascadeButton or a CascadeButtonGadget. This is the  case  for  all
       menu panes that are part of a PulldownMenu system (a MenuBar), the menu pane associated with an OptionMenu, and any menu panes that cascade
       from a Popup menu pane. Pulldown menu panes that are to be associated with an OptionMenu must be created before the OptionMenu is created.

       The Pulldown menu pane must be attached to a CascadeButton or CascadeButtonGadget that resides in a MenuBar, a Popup menu pane, a  Pulldown
       menu pane, or an OptionMenu. It is attached with the button resource XmNsubMenuId.

       A MenuShell widget is required between the Pulldown menu pane and its parent.  If the application uses this convenience function for creat-
       ing a Pulldown menu pane, the MenuShell is automatically created as the real parent of the menu pane; otherwise, it  is	the  application's
       responsibility to create the MenuShell widget.

       To  function  correctly when incorporated into a menu, the Pulldown menu pane's hierarchy must be considered. This hierarchy depends on the
       type of menu system that is being built, as follows:

	  o  If the Pulldown menu pane is to be pulled down from a MenuBar, its parent must be the MenuBar.

	  o  If the Pulldown menu pane is to be pulled down from a Popup or another Pulldown menu pane, its parent must be that Popup or  Pulldown
	     menu pane.

	  o  If the Pulldown menu pane is to be pulled down from an OptionMenu, its parent must be the same as the OptionMenu parent.

       PullDown menu panes support tear-off capabilities for tear-off menus through XmRowColumn resources.  For a complete definition of RowColumn
       and its associated resources, see XmRowColumn(3).

RETURN

       Returns the RowColumn widget ID.
