NAME

       XmStringTableProposeTablist -- A convenience function that returns a tab list

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Xm.h>
       XmTabList XmStringTableProposeTablist(
       XmStringTable strings,
       Cardinal num_strings,
       Widget widget,
       float pad_value,
       XmOffsetModel offset_model);

DESCRIPTION

       XmStringTableProposeTablist  takes  an  XmStringTable structure containing tabbed compound strings, information on padding between columns,
       and rendering information and returns a tab list that, if used to render the strings in the table, would cause the strings to  line  up	in
       columns	with  no overlap and with the specified amount of padding between the widest item in each column and the start of the next column.
       Each tab in the tablist would have the same unit type as units, an offset  model  of  offset_model,  and  an  alignment	type  of  XmALIGN-
       MENT_BEGINNING.

       strings	 Specifies an array of compound strings.

       num_strings
		 Specifies the number of compound strings in strings.

       widget	 Specifies  the  widget  used for deriving any necessary information for creating the rendition. In particular, the XmNunitType of
		 widget will be used to specify the unit type to be used in determining the amount of padding separating columns and for the  tabs
		 in the proposed tab list. Also, widget's render table will be used in interpreting rendition tags within the strings.

       pad_value Specifies  the  value of the amount of padding to be used to separate columns.  The units for this parameter are specified as the
		 XmNunitType set for the widget parameter.  Refer to the XmNunitType resource of the XmGadget, XmManager, or XmPrimitive reference
		 page.

       offset_model
		 Specifies the offset model to be used in creating the tabs. Can be XmABSOLUTE or XmRELATIVE.

RETURN

       Returns	a  new	XmTabList.   The  function allocates space to hold the returned tab list.  The application is responsible for managing the
       allocated space.  The application can recover the allocated space by calling XmTabListFree.

NAME

       XmTabCreate -- A convenience function that creates a tab stop

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Xm.h>
       XmTab XmTabCreate(
       float value,
       unsigned char units,
       XmOffsetModel offset_model,
       unsigned char alignment,
       char *decimal);

DESCRIPTION

       XmTabCreate creates a tab stop at a position defined by the value and units arguments.

       value	 Specifies  the  floating  point  value to be used in conjunction with units to calculate the location of the tab stop.  Note that
		 negative values are not permitted.

       units	 Specifies the unit type (for example, XmMILLIMETERS) to be used in conjunction with value to calculate the location  of  the  tab
		 stop.	You  can  specify any unit described by the XmConvertUnits reference page.  For resources of type, dimension, or position,
		 you can specify units as described in the XmNunitType resource of the XmGadget, XmManager, or XmPrimitive reference page.

       offset_model
		 Specifies whether the tab value represents an absolute position or a relative offset from the	previous  tab.	Valid  values  are
		 XmABSOLUTE and XmRELATIVE.

       alignment Specifies how the text should be aligned relative to this tab stop.  Valid values are XmALIGNMENT_BEGINNING.

       decimal	 Specifies  the  multibyte character in the current language environment to be used as the decimal point for a decimal aligned tab
		 stop. This is currently unused.

RETURN

       Returns a newly allocated XmTab.  The application is responsible for managing this allocated space.  The application can recover this allo-
       cated space by calling XmTabFree.
