NAME
     XmMainWindow --The MainWindow widget class

SYNOPSIS
     #include <Xm/MainW.h>


VERSION
     This page documents version 1.2 of the Motif library.

DESCRIPTION
     MainWindow provides a standard layout for the primary window of an applica-
     tion.   This  layout  includes a MenuBar, a CommandWindow, a work region, a
     MessageWindow, and ScrollBars.  Any or all of  these  areas  are  optional.
     The  work region and ScrollBars in the MainWindow behave identically to the
     work region and ScrollBars in the  ScrolledWindow  widget.   The  user  can
     think  of  the  MainWindow  as  an extended ScrolledWindow with an optional
     MenuBar and optional CommandWindow and MessageWindow.

     In a fully-loaded MainWindow, the MenuBar spans the top of the window hori-
     zontally.  The CommandWindow spans the MainWindow horizontally  just  below
     the  MenuBar,  and  the work region lies below the CommandWindow.  The Mes-
     sageWindow is is below the work region.  Any space remaining below the Mes-
     sageWindow is managed in a manner identical to ScrolledWindow.  The  behav-
     ior  of  ScrolledWindow  can be controlled by the ScrolledWindow resources.
     To create a MainWindow, first create the work region elements, a MenuBar, a
     CommandWindow, a MessageWindow, a  horizontal  ScrollBar,  and  a  vertical
     ScrollBar widget, and then call XmMainWindowSetAreas with those widget IDs.

     MainWindow  can  also  create three Separator widgets that provide a visual
     separation of MainWindow's four components.  The user can specify resources
     in a resource file for the automatically created gadgets that  contain  the
     MainWindow  separators.  The name of the first separator gadget is "Separa-
     tor1"; the second is "Separator2"; and the third is "Separator3".

   Classes
     MainWindow inherits behavior  and  resources  from  Core,  Composite,  Con-
     straint, XmManager, and ScrolledWindow classes.

     The class pointer is xmMainWindowWidgetClass.

     The class name is XmMainWindow.

   New Resources
     The  following table defines a set of widget resources used by the program-
     mer to specify data.  The programmer can also set the resource  values  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 re-
     maining letters (in either lowercase or uppercase, but include  any  under-
     scores  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).

     XmNcommandWindow
               Specifies  the  widget to be laid out as the CommandWindow.  This
               widget must have been previously created and managed as  a  child
               of MainWindow.

     XmNcommandWindowLocation
               Controls   the   position   of   the   command   window.   XmCOM-
               MAND_ABOVE_WORKSPACE locates the command window between the  menu
               bar  and  the work window.  XmCOMMAND_BELOW_WORKSPACE locates the
               command window between the work window and the message window.

     XmNmainWindowMarginHeight
               Specifies the margin height on the top and bottom of  MainWindow.
               This  resource  overrides  any  setting of the ScrolledWindow re-
               source XmNscrolledWindowMarginHeight.

     XmNmainWindowMarginWidth
               Specifies the margin width on the right and left sides  of  Main-
               Window.   This resource overrides any setting of the ScrolledWin-
               dow resource XmNscrolledWindowMarginWidth.

     XmNmenuBarSpecifies the widget to be laid out as the MenuBar.  This  widget
               must have been previously created and managed as a child of Main-
               Window.

     XmNmessageWindow
               Specifies  the  widget to be laid out as the MessageWindow.  This
               widget must have been previously created and managed as  a  child
               of  MainWindow.  The MessageWindow is positioned at the bottom of
               the MainWindow.  If this value is NULL, no message window is  in-
               cluded in the MainWindow.

     XmNshowSeparator
               Displays separators between the components of the MainWindow when
               set to True.  If set to False, no separators are displayed.


   Inherited Resources
     MainWindow inherits behavior and resources from the following superclasses.
     For a complete description of each resource, refer to the man page for that
     superclass.
