NAMEXmStringDraw — A compound string function that draws a compound string
in an X window
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
void XmStringDraw(
Display * d,
Window w,
XmRenderTable rendertable,
XmString string,
GC gc,
Position x,
Position y,
Dimension width,
unsigned char alignment,
unsigned char layout_direction,
XRectangle * clip);
DESCRIPTIONXmStringDraw draws a compound string in an X Window. If a compound
string segment uses a rendition that contains a font set, the graphic
context passed to this routine will have the GC font member left in an
undefined state. The underlying XmbStringDraw function called by this
routine modifies the font ID field of the GC passed into it and does
not attempt to restore the font ID to the incoming value. If the com‐
pound string segment is not drawn using a font set, the graphic context
must contain a valid font member. Graphic contexts created by XtGetGC
are not valid for this routine; instead, use XtAllocateGC to create a
graphic context.
d Specifies the display.
w Specifies the window.
rendertable
Specifies the render table.
string Specifies the string.
gc Specifies the graphics context to use.
x Specifies a coordinate of the rectangle that will contain the
displayed compound string.
y Specifies a coordinate of the rectangle that will contain the
displayed compound string.
width Specifies the width of the rectangle that will contain the
displayed compound string.
alignment Specifies how the string will be aligned within the specified
rectangle. It is either XmALIGNMENT_BEGINNING, XmALIGN‐
MENT_CENTER, or XmALIGNMENT_END.
layout_direction
Controls the direction in which the segments of the compound
string will be laid out. It also determines the meaning of
the alignment parameter.
clip Allows the application to restrict the area into which the
compound string will be drawn. If the value is NULL, clip‐
ping will be determined by the GC.
