 NAME    [Toc]    [Back]
      XmTextFieldPosToXY - A TextField function that accesses the x and y
      position of a character position

 SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]
      #include <Xm/TextF.h>
      Boolean XmTextFieldPosToXY(
      Widget widget,
      XmTextPosition position,
      Position *x,
      Position *y);

 DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]
      XmTextFieldPosToXY accesses the x and y position, relative to the
      upper left corner of the TextField widget, of a given character
      position in the text buffer.

      widget    Specifies the TextField widget ID

      position  Specifies the character position in the text for which the x
                and y position is accessed. This is an integer number of
                characters from the beginning of the buffer. The first
                character position is 0.

      x         Specifies the pointer in which the x position is returned.
                The returned position is the distance from the left side of
                the widget to the left border of the character.  This value
                is meaningful only if the function returns True.

      y         Specifies the pointer in which the y position is returned.
                The returned position is the distance from the top of the
                widget to the character's baseline.  This value is
                meaningful only if the function returns True.

 RETURN    [Toc]    [Back]
      This function returns True if the character position is displayed in
      the TextField widget; otherwise, it returns False, and no x or y value
      is returned.
