WMShell(3)
NAME
WMShell --- The WMShell widget class "WMShell" "widget class" "WMShell"
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Xm.h> #include <X11/Shell.h>
DESCRIPTION
WMShell is a top-level widget that encapsulates the interaction with
the window manager.
Classes
WMShell inherits behavior and resources from the Core, Composite, and
Shell classes.
The class pointer is wmShellWidgetClass.
The class name is WMShell.
New Resources
The following table defines a set of widget resources used by the
programmer to specify data. The programmer can also set the resource
values for the inherited classes to set attributes for this widget. To
reference a resource by name or by class in a .Xdefaults file, remove
the XmN or XmC prefix and use the remaining letters. To specify one of
the defined values for a resource in a .Xdefaults file, remove the Xm
prefix and use the remaining letters (in either lowercase or uppercase,
but include any underscores between words). The codes in the access
column indicate if the given resource can be set at creation time (C),
set by using XtSetValues (S), retrieved by using XtGetValues (G), or is
not applicable (N/A).

XmNbaseHeight
Specifies the base for a progression of preferred heights for
the window manager to use in sizing the widget. The
preferred heights are XmNbaseHeight plus integral multiples
of XmNheightInc, with a minimum of XmNminHeight and a maximum
of XmNmaxHeight. If an initial value is not supplied for
XmNbaseHeight but is supplied for XmNbaseWidth, the value of
XmNbaseHeight is set to 0 (zero) when the widget is realized.
XmNbaseWidth
Specifies the base for a progression of preferred widths for
the window manager to use in sizing the widget. The
preferred widths are XmNbaseWidth plus integral multiples of
XmNwidthInc, with a minimum of XmNminWidth and a maximum of
XmNmaxWidth. If an initial value is not supplied for
XmNbaseWidth but is supplied for XmNbaseHeight, the value of
XmNbaseWidth is set to 0 (zero) when the widget is realized.
XmNheightInc
Specifies the increment for a progression of preferred
heights for the window manager to use in sizing the widget.
The preferred heights are XmNbaseHeight plus integral
multiples of XmNheightInc, with a minimum of XmNminHeight and
a maximum of XmNmaxHeight. If an initial value is not
supplied for XmNheightInc but is supplied for XmNwidthInc,
the value of XmNheightInc is set to 1 when the widget is
realized.
XmNiconMask
Specifies a bitmap that could be used by the window manager
to clip the XmNiconPixmap bitmap to make the icon
nonrectangular.
XmNiconPixmap
Specifies a bitmap that could be used by the window manager
as the application's icon.
XmNiconWindow
Specifies the ID of a window that could be used by the window
manager as the application's icon.
XmNiconX Specifies a suitable place to put the application's icon;
this is a hint to the window manager in root window
coordinates. Because the window manager controls icon
placement policy, this resource may be ignored.
XmNiconY Specifies a suitable place to put the application's icon;
this is a hint to the window manager in root window
coordinates. Because the window manager controls icon
placement policy, this resource may be ignored.
XmNinitialState
Specifies the state the application wants the widget instance
to start in. It must be one of the constants NormalState or
IconicState.
XmNinput Specifies the application's input model for this widget and
its descendants. The meaning of a True or False value for
this resource depends on the presence or absence of a
WM_TAKE_FOCUS atom in the WM_PROTOCOLS property:
Input Model XmNinput WM_TAKE_FOCUS
No input False Absent
Passive True Absent
Locally active True Present
Globally active False Present
For more information on input models, see the X Consortium
Standard Inter-Client Communication Conventions Manual
(ICCCM).
XmNmaxAspectX
Specifies the numerator of the maximum aspect ratio (X/Y)
that the application wants the widget instance to have.
XmNmaxAspectY
Specifies the denominator of the maximum aspect ratio (X/Y)
that the application wants the widget instance to have.
XmNmaxHeight
Specifies the maximum height that the application wants the
widget instance to have.
XmNmaxWidth
Specifies the maximum width that the application wants the
widget instance to have.
XmNminAspectX
Specifies the numerator of the minimum aspect ratio (X/Y)
that the application wants the widget instance to have.
XmNminAspectY
Specifies the denominator of the minimum aspect ratio (X/Y)
that the application wants the widget instance to have.
XmNminHeight
Specifies the minimum height that the application wants the
widget instance to have.
XmNminWidth
Specifies the minimum width that the application wants the
widget instance to have.
XmNtitle Specifies the application name to be displayed by the window
manager. The default is the icon name, if specified;
otherwise, it is the name of the application. When
XtGetValues is called on this resource, the returned value is
a pointer to the actual resource value and should not be
freed.
XmNtitleEncoding
Specifies a property type that represents the encoding of the
XmNtitle string. If a language procedure has been set, the
default is None; otherwise, the default is XA_STRING. When
the widget is realized, if the value is None, the
corresponding name is assumed to be in the current locale.
The name is passed to XmbTextListToTextProperty with an
encoding style of XStdICCTextStyle. The resulting encoding is
STRING if the name is fully convertible to STRING; otherwise
it is COMPOUND_TEXT. The values of the encoding resources
are not changed; they remain None.
XmNtransient
Specifies a Boolean value that is True if the widget instance
is transient, typically a popup on behalf of another widget.
The window manager may treat a transient widget's window
differently from other windows. For example, a window
manager may not iconify a transient window separately from
its associated application. Applications and users should
not normally alter this resource.
XmNwaitForWm
When True, specifies that the Intrinsics waits the length of
time given by the XmNwmTimeout resource for the window
manager to respond to certain actions before assuming that
there is no window manager present. This resource is altered
by the Intrinsics as it receives, or fails to receive,
responses from the window manager.
XmNwidthInc
Specifies the base for a progression of preferred widths for
the window manager to use in sizing the widget. The
preferred widths are XmNbaseWidth plus integral multiples of
XmNwidthInc, with a minimum of XmNminWidth and a maximum of
XmNmaxWidth. If an initial value is not supplied for
XmNwidthInc but is supplied for XmNheightInc, the value of
XmNwidthInc is set to 1 when the widget is realized.
XmNwindowGroup
Specifies the ID of a window with which this widget instance
is associated. By convention, this window is the "leader" of
a group of windows. A window manager may treat all windows
in a group in some way; for example, it may always move or
iconify them together.
If no initial value is specified, the value is set to the
window of the first realized ancestor widget in the parent
hierarchy when the widget is realized. If a value of
XtUnspecifiedWindowGroup is specified, no window group is
set.
XmNwinGravity
Specifies the window gravity for use by the window manager in
positioning the widget. If no initial value is specified,
the value is set when the widget is realized. If XmNgeometry
is not NULL, XmNwinGravity is set to the window gravity
returned by XWMGeometry. Otherwise, XmNwinGravity is set to
NorthWestGravity.
XmNwmTimeout
Specifies the length of time that the Intrinsics waits for
the window manager to respond to certain actions before
assuming that there is no window manager present. The value
is in milliseconds and must not be negative.
