NAME

       XmTrackingEvent - A Toolkit function that provides a modal interaction

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Xm.h>

       Widget XmTrackingEvent (widget, cursor, confine_to, event_return)
	       Widget widget;
	       Cursor cursor;
	       Boolean confine_to;
	       XEvent *event_return;

DESCRIPTION

       XmTrackingEvent	provides  a  modal  interface for selection of a component. It is intended to support context help. The function grabs the
       pointer and discards succeeding events until BSelect is released or a key is pressed and then released. The function then returns the  wid-
       get  or	gadget that contains the pointer when BSelect is released or a key is released.  Specifies the widget ID of a widget to use as the
       basis of the modal interaction.	That is, the widget within which the interaction must occur, usually a top  level  shell.   Specifies  the
       cursor  to be used for the pointer during the interaction. This is a standard X cursor name.  Specifies whether or not the cursor should be
       confined to widget.  Returns the ButtonRelease or KeyRelease event that causes the function to return.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns the widget or gadget that contains the pointer when BSelect is released or a key is released.  If no widget or gadget contains  the
       pointer, the function returns NULL.
