XtQueryGeometry(Xt)
XtQueryGeometry --
query the preferred geometry of a child widget
Syntax
XtGeometryResult XtQueryGeometry(w, intended, preferred_return)
Widget w;
XtWidgetGeometry *intended, *preferred_return;
Arguments
intended-
Specifies any changes the parent plans to make to the child's geometry or
NULL.
preferred_return-
Returns the child widget's preferred geometry.
w-
Specifies the widget.
Description
To discover a child's preferred geometry, the child's parent sets any changes
that it intends to make to the child's geometry in the corresponding fields of
the intended structure, sets the corresponding bits in
intended->request_mode, and calls XtQueryGeometry.
XtQueryGeometry clears all bits in the
preferred_return -> request_mode
and checks the query_geometry field of the specified widget's class record.
If query_geometry is not NULL, XtQueryGeometry
calls the query_geometry procedure and passes as arguments the
specified widget, intended, and preferred_return structures.
If the intended argument is NULL, XtQueryGeometry
replaces it with a pointer to an XtWidgetGeometry
structure with request_mode=0 before calling query_geometry.
