viewres - graphical class browser for Xt
viewres [-option...]
The viewres program accepts all of the standard toolkit
command line options as well as the following: This option
specifies the name of the highest widget in the hierarchy
to display. This is typically used to limit the display
to a subset of the tree. The default is Object. This
option indicates that the widget variable names (as
declared in header files) should be displayed in the nodes
rather than the widget class name. This is sometimes useful
to distinguish widget classes that share the same name
(such as Text). This option indicates that the tree
should be displayed top to bottom rather left to right.
The viewres program displays a tree showing the widget
class hierarchy of the Athena Widget Set. Each node in
the tree can be expanded to show the resources that the
corresponding class adds (that is, does not inherit from
its parent) when a widget is created. This application
allows the user to visually examine the structure and
inherited resources for the Athena Widget Set.
The way in which the tree is displayed may be changed
through the entries in the View menu: This entry causes
the node labels to be set to the variable names used to
declare the corresponding widget class. This operation
may also be performed with the SetLabelType(variable)
translation. This entry causes the node labels to be set
to the class names used when specifying resources. This
operation may also be performed with the SetLabelType(class)
translation. This entry causes the tree to be
laid out from left to right. This operation may also be
performed with the SetOrientation(West) translation. This
entry causes the tree to be laid out from top to bottom.
This operation may also be performed with the SetOrientation(North)
translation. This entry expands the selected
nodes (see next section) to show the new widget and constraint
resources. This operation may also be performed
with the Resources(on) translation. This entry removes
the resource displays from the selected nodes (usually to
conserve space). This operation may also be performed
with the Resources(off) translation.
Resources for a single widget class can be displayed by
clicking Button2 on the corresponding node, or by adding
the node to the selection list with Button1 and using the
Show Resource Boxes entry in the View menu. Since Button1
actually toggles the selection state of a node, clicking
on a selected node will cause it to be removed from the
selected list.
Collections of nodes may also be selected through the various
entries in the Select menu: This entry removes all
nodes from the selection list. This operation may also be
performed with the Select(nothing) translation. This
entry adds all nodes to the selection list. This operation
may also be performed with the Select(all) translation.
This entry adds unselected nodes to, and removes
selected nodes from, the selection list. This operation
may also be performed with the Select(invert) translation.
This entry selects the immediate parents of all selected
nodes. This operation may also be performed with the
Select(parent) translation. This entry recursively
selects all parents of all selected nodes. This operation
may also be performed with the Select(ancestors) translation.
This entry selects the immediate children of all
selected nodes. This operation may also be performed with
the Select(children) translation. This entry recursively
selects all children of all selected nodes. This operation
may also be performed with the Select(descendants)
translation. This entry selects all nodes that add new
resources (regular or constraint) to their corresponding
widget classes. This operation may also be performed with
the Select(resources) translation. This entry selects all
nodes whose resource boxes are currently expanded (usually
so that they can be closed with Hide Resource Boxes).
This operation may also be performed with the
Select(shown) translation.
The following application actions are provided: This
action causes viewres to exit. This action sets the node
labels to display the widget variable or class names,
according to the argument type. This action sets the root
of the tree to be one of the following areas of the window:
West, North, East, or South. This action selects the
indicated nodes, as described in the VIEW MENU section:
nothing (unselects all nodes), invert, parent, ancestors,
children, descendants, resources, shown. This action
turns on, off, or toggles the resource boxes for the
selected nodes. If invoked from within one of the nodes
(through the keyboard or pointer), only that node is used.
Resources may be specified for the following widgets:
