NAME

       XmConvertUnits - A function that converts a value in one unit type to another unit type

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Xm.h>

       int XmConvertUnits (widget, orientation, from_unit_type, from_value, to_unit_type)
	       Widget widget;
	       int orientation;
	       int from_unit_type;
	       int from_value;
	       int to_unit_type;

DESCRIPTION

       XmConvertUnits  converts  the value and returns it as the return value from the function.  Specifies the widget for which the data is to be
       converted Specifies whether the converter uses the horizontal or vertical screen resolution when performing the	conversions.   orientation
       can  have  values of XmHORIZONTAL or XmVERTICAL.  Specifies the current unit type of the supplied value Specifies the value to be converted
       Converts the value to the unit type specified

       The parameters from_unit_type and to_unit_type can have the following values: XmPIXELS--all values provided to the widget  are  treated	as
       normal  pixel  values.	This is the default for the resource.  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  typically 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  compo-
       nents. These are the values of the XmScreen resources XmNhorizontalFontUnit and XmNverticalFontUnit.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns the converted value. If a NULL widget, incorrect orientation, or incorrect unit_type is supplied as parameter data, 0 is returned.

NAME

       XmSetFontUnits -- A function that sets the font unit value for a display

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Xm.h>
       void XmSetFontUnits(
       Display * display,
       int h_value,
       int v_value);

DESCRIPTION

       XmSetFontUnits  provides  an external function to initialize font unit values. Applications may want to specify resolution-independent data
       based on a global font size. This function must be called before any widgets with resolution-independent data are created. See the XmNunit-
       Type resource description in the reference pages for XmGadget, XmManager, and XmPrimitive for more information on resolution independence.

       This function sets the font units for all screens on the display.

       NOTE: XmSetFontUnits is obsolete and exists for compatibility with previous releases.  Instead of using this function, provide initial val-
       ues or call XtSetValues for the XmScreen resources XmNhorizontalFontUnit and XmNverticalFontUnit.

       display	 Defines the display for which this font unit value is to be applied.

       h_value	 Specifies the value to be used for horizontal units in the conversion calculations.

       h_value	 Specifies the value to be used for vertical units in the conversion calculations.
