XmListReplaceItemsPos(3X)												 XmListReplaceItemsPos(3X)

NAME

       XmListReplaceItemsPos - A List function that replaces the specified elements in the list

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/List.h>

       void XmListReplaceItemsPos (widget, new_items, item_count, position)
	       Widget widget;
	       XmString *new_items;
	       int item_count;
	       int position;

DESCRIPTION

       XmListReplaceItemsPos  replaces	the  specified number of items of the List with new items, starting at the specified position in the List.
       When the items are inserted into the list, they are compared with the current XmNselectedItems list.  If any of the new	items  matches	an
       item on the selected list, it appears selected.	Specifies the ID of the List widget.  Specifies the replacement items.	Specifies the num-
       ber of items in new_items and the number of items in the list to replace. This number must be non-negative.  Specifies the position of  the
       first  item  in	the  list  to be replaced. A value of 1 indicates that the first item replaced is the first item in the list; a value of 2
       indicates that it is the second item; and so on.

	      Beginning with the item specified in position, item_count items in the list  are	replaced  with	the  corresponding  elements  from
	      new_items.  That	is, the item at position is replaced with the first element of new_items; the item after position is replaced with
	      the second element of new_items; and so on, until item_count is reached.
