XtResizeWidget()														  XtResizeWidget()

Name
  XtResizeWidget - resize a child widget.

Synopsis
  void XtResizeWidget(w, width, height, border_width)
	 Widget w;
	 Dimension width;
	 Dimension height;
	 Dimension border_width;

Inputs
  w	    Specifies the widget to be resized.  Must be of class RectObj or any subclass thereof.

  width, height, border_width
	    Specify the new widget size and border width.

Description
  XtResizeWidget()  changes  the  width, height, and border width of w as specified.  It stores the new values into the widget record, and if
  the widget is realized, calls XConfigureWindow() to change the size of the widget's window.  Whether or not the widget is  realized,	XtRe-
  sizeWidget() calls the widget's resize() method to notify it of the size changes.

  If the specified size is equal to the current size, XtResizeWidget() returns immediately without calling XConfigureWindow() or the resize()
  method.

  See resize()(4) for information about the responsibilities of the resize() method.

Usage
  XtResizeWidget() should only be used by a parent widget to change the size of its children.  If an application wishes to change the size of
  a  widget,  it  should set the XtNwidth and XtNheight (and possibly the XtNborderWidth) resources of the widget.  If a widget would like to
  resize itself, it must request a new size with XtMakeGeometryRequest() or XtMakeResizeRequest().

  To move a child widget, use XtMoveWidget().  To move and resize a widget in the same call, use XtConfigureWidget().

NAME
XtConfigureWidget, XtMoveWidget, XtResizeWidget - move and resize widgets SYNTAX
void XtConfigureWidget(Widget w, Position x, Position y, Dimension width, Dimension height, Dimension border_width); void XtMoveWidget(Widget w, Position x, Position y); void XtResizeWidget(Widget w, Dimension width, Dimension height, Dimension border_width); void XtResizeWindow(Widget w); ARGUMENTS
width height border_width Specify the new widget size. w Specifies the widget. x y Specify the new widget x and y coordinates. DESCRIPTION
The XtConfigureWidget function returns immediately if the specified geometry fields are the same as the old values. Otherwise, XtConfigureWidget writes the new x, y, width, height, and border_width values into the widget and, if the widget is realized, makes an Xlib XConfigureWindow call on the widget's window. If either the new width or height is different from its old value, XtConfigureWidget calls the widget's resize procedure to notify it of the size change; otherwise, it simply returns. The XtMoveWidget function returns immediately if the specified geometry fields are the same as the old values. Otherwise, XtMoveWidget writes the new x and y values into the widget and, if the widget is realized, issues an Xlib XMoveWindow call on the widget's window. The XtResizeWidget function returns immediately if the specified geometry fields are the same as the old values. Otherwise, XtResizeWidget writes the new width, height, and border_width values into the widget and, if the widget is realized, issues an XConfigureWindow call on the widget's window. If the new width or height are different from the old values, XtResizeWidget calls the widget's resize procedure to notify it of the size change. The XtResizeWindow function calls the XConfigureWindow Xlib function to make the window of the specified widget match its width, height, and border width. This request is done unconditionally because there is no way to tell if these values match the current values. Note that the widget's resize procedure is not called. There are very few times to use XtResizeWindow; instead, you should use XtResizeWidget. SEE ALSO
