NAME
       XmStringDraw - A compound string function that draws a compound string in an X window

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Xm/Xm.h>

       void XmStringDraw (d, w, fontlist, string, gc, x, y, width, alignment, layout_direction, clip)
	       Display * d;
	       Window w;
	       XmFontList fontlist;
	       XmString string;
	       GC gc;
	       Position x;
	       Position y;
	       Dimension width;
	       unsigned char alignment;
	       unsigned char layout_direction;
	       XRectangle * clip;

DESCRIPTION
       XmStringDraw  draws  a  compound  string  in  an X Window. If a compound string segment uses a font list entry that defines a font set, the
       graphic context passed to this routine will have the GC font member left in an undefined  state.   The  underlying  XmbStringDraw  function
       called  by  this  routine  modifies  the font id field of the GC passed into it and does not attempt to restore the font id to the incoming
       value.  If the compound string segment is not drawn using a font set, the graphic context must contain a valid font member.   Graphic  con-
       texts  created  by  XtGetGC  are not valid for this routine; instead, use XtAllocateGC to create a graphic context.  Specifies the display.
       Specifies the window.  Specifies the font list.	Specifies the string.  Specifies the graphics context to use.  Specifies a  coordinate	of
       the  rectangle  that  will  contain the displayed compound string.  Specifies a coordinate of the rectangle that will contain the displayed
       compound string.  Specifies the width of the rectangle that will contain the displayed compound string.	Specifies how the string  will	be
       aligned within the specified rectangle. It is either XmALIGNMENT_BEGINNING, XmALIGNMENT_CENTER, or XmALIGNMENT_END.  Controls the direction
       in which the segments of the compound string will be laid out.  It also determines the meaning of  the  alignment  parameter.   Allows  the
       application to restrict the area into which the compound string will be drawn.  If NULL, no clipping will be done.
