NAME
XmStringDraw--A compound string function that draws a compound string
in an X window
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
void XmStringDraw (d, w, fontlist, string, gc, x, y, width, alignment, layout_direction, clip)
Display * d;
Window w;
XmFontListfontlist;
XmString string;
GC gc;
Position x;
Position y;
Dimension width;
unsigned charalignment;
unsigned charlayout_direction;
XRectangle* clip;
DESCRIPTION
XmStringDraw draws a compound string in an X Window. If a compound
string segment uses a font list entry that defines 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 compound 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.
fontlist Specifies the font list.
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, XmALIGNMENT_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 NULL, no clipping
will be done.
