XtConfigureWidget()													       XtConfigureWidget()

Name
  XtConfigureWidget - move and/or resize widget.

Synopsis
  void XtConfigureWidget(w, x, y, width, height, border_width)
	 Widget w;
	 Position x;
	 Position y;
	 Dimension width;
	 Dimension height;
	 Dimension border_width;

Inputs
  w	    Specifies the widget; must be of class RectObj or any subclass thereof.

  x, y	    Specify the widget's new x and y coordinates.

  width, height, border_width
	    Specify the widget's new dimensions.

Description
  XtConfigureWidget()  sets  the size and position of a widget.  If the new size and position are the same as the widget's current values, it
  returns immediately.	Otherwise XtConfigureWidget() writes the new x, y, width, height, and border_width values into instance fields of the
  object and, if the object is a widget and is realized, calls XConfigureWindow() on the widget's window.

  If either the new width or the new height is different from its old value, XtConfigureWidget() calls the widget's resize() method to notify
  it of the size change.

Usage
  XtConfigureWidget() should be used only by a parent widget on one of its children widget.  If you want to set a  widget  size  or  position
  from an application, use XtSetValues() to set the XtNx, XtNy, XtNwidth, and XtNheight resources.  If widget wants to change its own size or
  location, it must use XtMakeGeometryRequest().

  XtResizeWidget() and XtMoveWidget() are similar to XtConfigureWidget() but are simpler for the cases when you need only to resize  or  only
  to move a widget.
