NAME
       XmScaleSetTicks -- A Scale function that controls tick marks

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Xm/Scale.h>
       void XmScaleSetTicks(
       Widget scale,
       int big_every,
       Cardinal num_medium,
       Cardinal num_small,
       Dimension size_big,
       Dimension size_medium,
       Dimension size_small);

DESCRIPTION
       XmScaleSetTicks	controls the number, location, and size of the tick marks on a Scale. Each tick mark is a SeparatorGadget oriented perpen-
       dicular to the Scale's orientation. For example, if the Scale is oriented horizontally, the tick marks will be oriented vertically.

       If you specify tick marks for a Scale and then change the Scale's orientation, you will have to do the following:

	  o  Remove all the tick marks. To remove tick marks from a Scale, you must destroy  (with  XtDestroyChildren)	the  SeparatorGadget  tick
	     marks.  The first two children of a Scale are its title and scroll bar, and all additional children are tick marks.

	  o  Recreate the tick marks by calling XmScaleSetTicks.

       scale	 Specifies the Scale widget ID that is getting the tick marks.

       big_every Specifies the number of scale values between big ticks.

       num_medium
		 Specifies the number of medium ticks between big values.

       num_small Specifies the number of small ticks between medium values.

       size_big  Specifies the size (either width or height) of the big ticks.

       size_medium
		 Specifies the size (either width or height) of the medium ticks.

       size_small
		 Specifies the size (either width or height) of the small ticks.
