CLASS HIERARCHYObject(3)Rect(3)UnNamedObj(3)Core(3)XmPrimitive(3)XmText(3)CALLBACKS
The XmText widget defines a large number of callback lists : XmNacti‐
vateCallback, XmNfocusCallback, XmNlosingFocusCallback, XmNval‐
ueChangedCallback, XmNmodifyVerifyCallback, XmNmodifyVerifyCallbackWcs,
XmNmotionVerifyCallback, XmNgainPrimaryCallback, XmNlosePrimaryCall‐
back. The XmNactivateCallback can only be called if the XmNeditMode is
XmSINGLE_LINE_EDIT.
