NAME

       XmGetVisibility -- A function that determines if a widget is visible

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Xm.h>
       XmVisibility XmGetVisibility(
       Widget widget);

DESCRIPTION

       XmGetVisibility	returns  the  visibility state of the specified widget.  It checks to see if some part of the widget's rectangular area is
       unobscured by the widget's ancestors, or some part of the widget's rectangular area is inside the work window  (but  possibly  outside  the
       clip window) of a ScrolledWindow whose XmNscrollingPolicy is XmAUTOMATIC and whose XmNtraverseObscuredCallback is not NULL.

       XmGetVisibility	does not check to see if widget is obscured by its siblings or by siblings of its ancestors. Consequently, XmGetVisibility
       returns XmVISIBILITY_UNOBSCURED for widgets which are completely or partially covered by one or more siblings of widget by one or more sib-
       lings of ancestors of widget.

       When  a	widget which is unrealized is being queried, it is indicated that the widget is fully obscured.  If an application unmaps a widget
       that has its XmNmappedWhenManaged resource set to True, the return value is undefined.  When a widget which is unmanaged is being  queried,
       it is indicated that the widget is fully obscured.

       widget	 Specifies the ID of the widget

RETURN

       Returns one of the following values:

       XmVISIBILITY_UNOBSCURED
		 Indicates that the widget is mapped, not obscured, and is completely visible on the screen.

       XmVISIBILITY_PARTIALLY_OBSCURED
		 Indicates that the widget is mapped, and is not completely visible on the screen (partially obscured).

       XmVISIBILITY_FULLY_OBSCURED
		 Indicates that the widget is not at all visible on the screen.
