NAME

       XmMenuPosition -- A RowColumn function that positions a Popup menu pane

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/RowColumn.h>
       void XmMenuPosition(
       Widget menu,
       XButtonPressedEvent * event);

DESCRIPTION

       XmMenuPosition positions a Popup menu pane using the information in the specified event. Unless an application is positioning the menu pane
       itself, it must first invoke this function before managing the PopupMenu.  The x_root and y_root fields in the specified X event  are  used
       to determine the menu position.

       menu	 Specifies the PopupMenu to be positioned

       event	 Specifies the event passed to the action procedure which manages the PopupMenu

       Which  corner  of  the PopupMenu is positioned at the x_root and y_root depends on the XmNlayoutDirection resource of the widget from which
       popup occurs.

NAME

       XmAddToPostFromList -- a RowColumn function that makes a menu accessible from more than one widget

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/RowColumn.h>

       void XmAddToPostFromList(
       Widget menu,
       Widget post_from_widget);

DESCRIPTION

       XmAddToPostFromList makes a menu accessible from more than one widget. After a menu is once created, this function may be used to make that
       menu accessible from a second widget. The process may be repeated indefinitely. In other words, where an application would use XmCreatePop-
       upMenu  or  XmCreatePulldownMenu or their equivalent to create a new menu identical to one that already exists, it can use this function to
       reuse that earlier menu.

       If menu refers to a Popup menu, then the post_from_widget widget can now pop up the specified menu. The actual posting of the  menu  occurs
       as it always does, either through an event handler, or the automatic popup menu support (see the XmRowColumn(3) reference page).

       If  menu  refers  to  a	Pulldown menu, its ID is placed in the XmNsubMenuId resource of the specified post_from_widget.  In this case, the
       post_from_widget widget must be either a CascadeButton or a CascadeButtonGadget.

       Note that this function manipulates the internal structures themselves, not a copy of them.

       menu	 Specifies the ID of the RowColumn widget containing the menu (Popup or Pulldown) to be made accessible from the widget.

       post_from_widget
		 Specifies the widget ID of the widget which will now be able to post the menu specified by menu.
