NAME
VendorShell - The VendorShell widget class
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Xm.h> #include <X11/Shell.h>
DESCRIPTION
VendorShell is a Motif widget class used as a supporting superclass for all shell classes that are visible to the window manager and that
are not override redirect. It contains resources that describe the MWM-specific look and feel. It also manages the MWM-specific communica-
tion needed by all VendorShell subclasses. See the mwm(1X) man page for more information.
If an application uses the XmNmwmDecorations, XmNmwmFunctions, or XmNmwmInputMode resource, it should include the file <Xm/MwmUtil.h>.
Setting XmNheight, XmNwidth, or XmNborderWidth for either a VendorShell or its managed child usually sets that resource to the same value
in both the parent and the child. When an off-the-spot input method exists, the height and width of the shell may be greater than those of
the managed child in order to accommodate the input method. In this case setting XmNheight or XmNwidth for the shell does not necessarily
set that resource to the same value in the managed child, and setting XmNheight or XmNwidth for the child does not necessarily set that
resource to the same value in the shell.
For the managed child of a VendorShell, regardless of the value of the shell's XmNallowShellResize, setting XmNx or XmNy sets the corre-
sponding resource of the parent but does not change the child's position relative to the parent. XtGetValues for the child's XmNx or XmNy
yields the value of the corresponding resource in the parent. The x and y coordinates of the child's upper left outside corner relative to
the parent's upper left inside corner are both zero minus the value of XmNborderWidth.
Note that the Inter-Client Communication Conventions Manual allows a window manager to change or control the border width of a reparented
top-level window.
Classes
VendorShell inherits behavior and resources from Core, Composite, Shell, and WMShell classes.
The class pointer is vendorShellWidgetClass.
The class name is VendorShell.
New Resources
The following table defines a set of widget resources used by the programmer to specify data. The programmer can also set the resource
values for the inherited classes to set attributes for this widget. To reference a subresource by name or by class in a .Xdefaults file,
remove the XmN or XmC prefix and use the remaining letters. To specify one of the defined values for a subresource in a .Xdefaults file,
remove the Xm prefix and use the remaining letters (in either lowercase or uppercase, but include any underscores between words). The codes
in the access column indicate if the given subresource can be set at creation time (C), set by using XtSetValues (S), retrieved by using
XtGetValues (G), or is not applicable (N/A).

Determines whether an action activates its associated audible cue. The possible values are: XmBELL and XmNONE. Specifies the font
list used for VendorShell's button descendants. If this value is NULL at initialization and if the value of XmNdefaultFontList is
not NULL, XmNbuttonFontList is initialized to the value of XmNdefaultFontList. If the value of XmNdefaultFontList is NULL, XmNbut-
tonFontList is initialized by looking up the parent hierarchy of the widget for an ancestor that is a subclass of the XmBullet-
inBoard, VendorShell, or XmMenuShell widget class. If such an ancestor is found, XmNbuttonFontList is initialized to the XmNbutton-
FontList of the ancestor widget. If no such ancestor is found, the default is implementation dependent. Specifies a default font
list for VendorShell's descendants. This resource is obsolete and exists for compatibility with earlier releases. It has been
replaced by XmNbuttonFontList, XmNlabelFontList, and XmNtextFontList. Determines what action the shell takes in response to a
WM_DELETE_WINDOW message. The setting can be one of three values: XmDESTROY, XmUNMAP, and XmDO_NOTHING. The resource is scanned, and
the appropriate action is taken, after the WM_DELETE_WINDOW callback list (if any) that is registered with the Protocol manager has
been called. Specifies the string that sets the locale modifier for the input method. Determines allocation of keyboard focus
within the widget hierarchy rooted at this shell. The X keyboard focus must be directed to somewhere in the hierarchy for this
client-side focus management to take effect. Possible values are XmEXPLICIT, specifying a click-to-type policy, and XmPOINTER,
specifying a pointer-driven policy. Specifies the font list used for VendorShell's label descendants (Labels and LabelGadgets). If
this value is NULL at initialization and if the value of XmNdefaultFontList is not NULL, XmNlabelFontList is initialized to the
value of XmNdefaultFontList. If the value of XmNdefaultFontList is NULL, XmNlabelFontList is initialized by looking up the parent
hierarchy of the widget for an ancestor that is a subclass of the XmBulletinBoard, VendorShell, or XmMenuShell widget class. If
such an ancestor is found, XmNlabelFontList is initialized to the XmNlabelFontList of the ancestor widget. If no such ancestor is
found, the default is implementation dependent. Specifies the decoration flags (specific decorations to add or remove from the win-
dow manager frame) for the _MOTIF_WM_HINTS property. If any decoration flags are specified by the _MOTIF_WM_HINTS property, only
decorations indicated by both that property and the MWM clientDecoration and transientDecoration resources are displayed. If no dec-
oration flags are specified by the _MOTIF_WM_HINTS property, decorations indicated by the MWM clientDecoration and transientDecora-
tion resources are displayed. The default for the XmNmwmDecorations resource is not to specify any decoration flags for the
_MOTIF_WM_HINTS property.
The value of this resource is the bitwise inclusive OR of one or more flag bits. Following are the possible flag bit constants,
defined in the include file <Xm/MwmUtil.h>: MWM_DECOR_ALL--All decorations except those specified by other flag bits that are set
MWM_DECOR_BORDER--Client window border MWM_DECOR_RESIZEH--Resize frame handles MWM_DECOR_TITLE--Title bar MWM_DECOR_MENU--Window
menu button MWM_DECOR_MINIMIZE--Minimize window button MWM_DECOR_MAXIMIZE--Maximize window button Specifies the function flags (spe-
cific window manager functions to apply or not apply to the client window) for the _MOTIF_WM_HINTS property. If any function flags
are specified by the _MOTIF_WM_HINTS property, only functions indicated by both that property and the MWM clientFunctions and tran-
sientFunctions resources are applied. If no function flags are specified by the _MOTIF_WM_HINTS property, functions indicated by the
MWM clientFunctions and transientFunctions resources are applied. The default for the XmNmwmFunctions resource is not to specify any
function flags for the _MOTIF_WM_HINTS property.
The value of this resource is the bitwise inclusive OR of one or more flag bits. Following are the possible flag bit constants,
defined in the include file <Xm/MwmUtil.h>: MWM_FUNC_ALL--All functions except those specified by other flag bits that are set
MWM_FUNC_RESIZE--f.resize MWM_FUNC_MOVE--f.move MWM_FUNC_MINIMIZE--f.minimize MWM_FUNC_MAXIMIZE--f.maximize MWM_FUNC_CLOSE--f.kill
Specifies the input mode flag (application modal or system modal input constraints) for the _MOTIF_WM_HINTS property. If no input
mode flag is specified by the _MOTIF_WM_HINTS property, no input constraints are applied, and input goes to any window. The default
for the XmNmwmInputMode resource is not to specify any input mode flag for the _MOTIF_WM_HINTS property.
An application that sets input constraints on a dialog usually uses the BulletinBoard's XmNdialogStyle resource rather than the par-
ent DialogShell's XmNmwmInputMode resource.
Following are the possible values for this resource, defined in the include file <Xm/MwmUtil.h>: MWM_INPUT_MODELESS--Input goes to
any window MWM_INPUT_PRIMARY_APPLICATION_MODAL--Input does not go to ancestors of this window MWM_INPUT_SYSTEM_MODAL--Input goes
only to this window MWM_INPUT_FULL_APPLICATION_MODAL--Input does not go to other windows in this application Specifies the menu
items that the Motif window manager should add to the end of the window menu. The string contains a list of items separated by
with the following format:
label [mnemonic] [accelerator] function
If more than one item is specified, the items should be separated by a newline character. Specifies the input method style or
styles available to the input manager. The syntax, possible values, and default value are implementation dependent. Determines geo-
metric resource interpretation. The following values are allowed: XmPIXELS--all values provided to the widget are treated as normal
pixel values. Xm100TH_MILLIMETERS--all values provided to the widget are treated as 1/100 millimeter. Xm1000TH_INCHES--all values
provided to the widget are treated as 1/1000 inch. Xm100TH_POINTS--all values provided to the widget are treated as 1/100 point. A
point is a unit used in text processing applications and is defined as 1/72 inch. Xm100TH_FONT_UNITS--all values provided to the
widget are treated as 1/100 of a font unit. A font unit has horizontal and vertical components. These are the values of the XmScreen
resources XmNhorizontalFontUnit and XmNverticalFontUnit. Specifies the font list used for VendorShell's Text and List descendants.
If this value is NULL at initialization and if the value of XmNdefaultFontList is not NULL, XmNtextFontList is initialized to the
value of XmNdefaultFontList. If the value of XmNdefaultFontList is NULL, XmNtextFontList is initialized by looking up the parent
hierarchy of the widget for an ancestor that is a subclass of the XmBulletinBoard or VendorShell widget class. If such an ancestor
is found, XmNtextFontList is initialized to the XmNtextFontList of the ancestor widget. If no such ancestor is found, the default
is implementation dependent. Specifies whether the geometry manager should wait for confirmation of a geometry request to the win-
dow manager. When the value of this resource is True, the geometry manager forces XmNwaitForWm to False and XmNwmTimeout to 0, and
it relies on asynchronous notification. When the value of this resource is False, XmNwaitForWm and XmNwmTimeout are unaffected. The
default is False.
