Shell(3X)Shell(3X)NAMEShell - The Shell widget class
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Xm.h> #include <X11/Shell.h>
DESCRIPTIONShell is a top-level widget (with only one managed child) that encapsu‐
lates the interaction with the window manager.
At the time the shell's child is managed, the child's width is used for
both widgets if the shell is unrealized and no width has been specified
for the shell. Otherwise, the shell's width is used for both widgets.
The same relations hold for the height of the shell and its child.
Classes
Shell inherits behavior and resources from Composite and Core.
The class pointer is shellWidgetClass.
The class name is Shell.
New Resources
The following table defines a set of widget resources used by the pro‐
grammer to specify data. The programmer can also set the resource val‐
ues 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).
Shell Resource Set
Class: XmCAllowShellResize
Default: False
Type: Boolean
Access: CG
Class: XmCCreatePopupChildProc
Default: NULL
Type: XtCreatePopupChildProc
Access: CSG
Class: XmCGeometry

Class: XmCOverrideRedirect
Default: False
Type: Boolean

Class: XmCCallback
Default: NULL
Type: XtCallbackList
Access: C
Class: XmCSaveUnder
Default: False
Type: Boolean
Access: CSG
Class: XmCVisual
Default: CopyFromParent
Type: Visual *
Access: CSG
Specifies that if this resource is False, the Shell widget
instance returns XtGeometryNo to all geometry requests from its
children. Specifies the pointer to a function that is called
when the Shell widget instance is popped up by XtPopup. The
function creates the child widget when the shell is popped up
instead of when the application starts up. This can be used if
the child needs to be reconfigured each time the shell is popped
up. The function takes one argument, the popup shell, and
returns no result. It is called after the popup callbacks speci‐
fied by XmNpopupCallback. Specifies the desired geometry for
the widget instance. This resource is examined only when the
widget instance is unrealized and the number of its managed
children is changed. It is to change the values of the XmNx,
XmNy, XmNwidth, and XmNheight resources. Specifies this is True
if the widget instance is a temporary window which should be
ignored by the window manager. Applications and users should
not normally alter this resource. Specifies a list of callbacks
that is called when the widget instance is popped down by XtPop‐
down. Specifies a list of callbacks that is called when the
widget instance is popped up by XtPopup. Specifies a True value
if it is desirable to save the contents of the screen beneath
this widget instance, avoiding expose events when the instance
is unmapped. This is a hint, and an implementation may save
contents whenever it desires, including always or never. Speci‐
fies the visual used in creating the widget.
Inherited Resources
Shell inherits behavior and resources from the following superclass.
For a complete description of each resource, refer to the man page for
that superclass.
