NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

       XmToggleButtonGadget - The ToggleButtonGadget widget class

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

       #include <Xm/ToggleBG.h>


DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       ToggleButtonGadget sets nontransitory state data within an
       application.  Usually this gadget consists of an indicator
       (square or diamond-shaped) with either text or a pixmap on
       one  side of it. However, it can also consist of just text
       or a pixmap without the indicator.

       The toggle  graphics  display  a  1-of-many  or  N-of-many
       selection  state.  When a toggle indicator is displayed, a
       square indicator shows an N-of-many selection state and  a
       diamond-shaped   indicator  shows  a  1-of-many  selection
       state.

       ToggleButtonGadget implies a selected or unselected state.
       In  the case of a label and an indicator, an empty indicator
 (square or diamond-shaped) indicates  that  ToggleButtonGadget
 is unselected, and a filled indicator shows that
       it is selected.  In the case of a pixmap toggle, different
       pixmaps   are  used  to  display  the  selected/unselected
       states.

       The default behavior associated with a  ToggleButtonGadget
       in  a  menu depends on the type of menu system in which it
       resides. By default, BSelect controls the behavior of  the
       ToggleButtonGadget. In addition, BMenu controls the behavior
 of the ToggleButtonGadget if it resides in a PopupMenu
       system.  The actual mouse button used is determined by its
       RowColumn parent.

       To accommodate the toggle indicator when created,  Label's
       resource XmNmarginLeft may be increased.

   Classes    [Toc]    [Back]
       ToggleButtonGadget  inherits  behavior  and resources from
       Object, RectObj, XmGadget and XmLabelGadget classes.

       The class pointer is xmToggleButtonGadgetClass.

       The class name is XmToggleButtonGadget.

   New Resources    [Toc]    [Back]
       The following table defines a set of widget resources used
       by  the  programmer  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 remaining letters
       (in either lowercase or uppercase, but include any  underscores
  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).

              Specifies a list of callbacks that is  called  when
              the  ToggleButtonGadget  is armed. To arm this gadget,
  press  the  active  mouse  button  while  the
              pointer  is inside the ToggleButtonGadget. For this
              callback, the reason is XmCR_ARM.  Specifies a list
              of callbacks called when ToggleButtonGadget is disarmed.
 To disarm this gadget, press and release the
              active mouse button while the pointer is inside the
              ToggleButtonGadget. The  gadget  is  also  disarmed
              when  the user moves out of the gadget and releases
              the mouse button when the pointer  is  outside  the
              gadget.  For this callback, the reason is XmCR_DISARM.
  Fills the indicator with the color  specified
              in  XmNselectColor  and switches the top and bottom
              shadow colors when  set  to  True.   Otherwise,  it
              switches  only  the  top  and bottom shadow colors.
              The default is set to the value of  XmNindicatorOn.
              When  XmNindicatorOn  is False, and XmNfillOnSelect
              is set explicitly to True, the background is filled
              with the color specified by XmNselectColor.  Specifies
 that a toggle indicator is drawn to  one  side
              of  the  toggle  text  or  pixmap when set to True.
              When set to False, no space is  allocated  for  the
              indicator,  and it is not displayed.  If XmNindicatorOn
 is True, the indicator shadows  are  switched
              when  the button is selected or unselected, but any
              shadows around the entire gadget are not  switched.
              However,  if  XmNindicatorOn  is False, any shadows
              around the entire gadget are switched when the toggle
  is  selected  or unselected.  Sets the size of
              the indicator. If no value is specified,  the  size
              of  the indicator is based on the size of the label
              string or pixmap.  If the label  string  or  pixmap
              changes,  the  size  of the indicator is recomputed
              based on the size of the label  string  or  pixmap.
              Once  a  value has been specified for XmNindicatorSize,
 the indicator has that  size,  regardless  of
              the size of the label string or pixmap, until a new
              value is specified.  Specifies if the indicator  is
              a  1-of or an N-of indicator.  For the 1-of indicator,
 the value  is  XmONE_OF_MANY.   For  the  N-of
              indicator, the value is XmN_OF_MANY.  The N-of-many
              indicator is square.  The  1-of-many  indicator  is
              diamond-shaped.   This  resource specifies only the
              visuals and does not enforce the behavior. When the
              ToggleButtonGadget is in a RadioBox, the default is
              XmONE_OF_MANY;   otherwise,    the    default    is
              XmN_OF_MANY.   Allows  the  application  to specify
              what color fills the center of the square  or  diamond-shaped
  indicator  when  it  is  set.  If this
              color is the same as either the top or  the  bottom
              shadow  color  of  the  indicator, a one-pixel-wide
              margin is left between the shadows  and  the  fill;
              otherwise,   it   is   filled   completely.    This
              resource's default for a color display is  a  color
              between the background and the bottom shadow color.
              For a monochrome display, the default is set to the
              foreground  color.   To  set  the background of the
              button to  XmNselectColor  when  XmNindicatorOn  is
              False, the value of XmNfillOnSelect must be explicitly
 set to True.  Specifies a pixmap used  as  the
              button face when the ToggleButtonGadget is selected
              and the button is insensitive  if  the  LabelGadget
              resource  XmNlabelType is XmPIXMAP.  If the ToggleButtonGadget
 is unselected and the button is insensitive,
  the pixmap in XmNlabelInsensitivePixmap is
              used as the button face. If no value  is  specified
              for XmNlabelInsensitivePixmap, that resource is set
              to  the  value  specified   for   XmNselectInsensitivePixmap.
  Specifies the pixmap to be used as the
              button face if XmNlabelType  is  XmPIXMAP  and  the
              ToggleButtonGadget is selected. When the ToggleButtonGadget
 is unselected, the  pixmap  specified  in
              LabelGadget's  XmNlabelPixmap  is used. If no value
              is specified for XmNlabelPixmap, that  resource  is
              set  to  the  value  specified for XmNselectPixmap.
              Represents the state of the ToggleButton.  A  value
              of  false  indicates  that  the ToggleButton is not
              set. A value of true indicates that the  ToggleButton
  is  set.  Setting this resource sets the state
              of the ToggleButton.  Specifies the amount of spacing
  between  the  toggle  indicator and the toggle
              label (text or pixmap).  Specifies a list of  callbacks
  called  when the ToggleButtonGadget value is
              changed.  To change the value,  press  and  release
              the active mouse button while the pointer is inside
              the ToggleButtonGadget.  This  action  also  causes
              the  gadget  to be disarmed. For this callback, the
              reason is XmCR_VALUE_CHANGED.  Indicates  that  the
              toggle indicator is visible in the unselected state
              when the Boolean value is True. When the ToggleButtonGadget
 is in a menu, the default value is False.
              When the ToggleButtonGadget is in a  RadioBox,  the
              default value is True.

         int      reason;
         XEvent   * event;
         int      set; } XmToggleButtonCallbackStruct;

       Indicates  why  the  callback  was  invoked  Points to the
       XEvent that triggered the callback Reflects the ToggleButtonGadget's
  current  state  when  the  callback occurred,
       either True (selected) or False (unselected)

   Behavior    [Toc]    [Back]
       XmToggleButtonGadget  includes  behavior  from   XmGadget.
       XmToggleButtonGadget includes menu traversal behavior from
       XmLabelGadget. Additional XmToggleButtonGadget behavior is
       described  below: Drags the contents of a ToggleButtonGadget
 label, identified by pressing BDrag.  This action creates
  a DragContext object whose XmNexportTargets resource
       is set to COMPOUND_TEXT for a label type of XmSTRING; otherwise,
 PIXMAP if the label type is XmPIXMAP.  This action
       is undefined for ToggleButtonGadgets used in a  menu  system.
   In  a menu, this action unposts any menus posted by
       the ToggleButtonGadget's parent  menu,  disables  keyboard
       traversal  for  the  menu, and enables mouse traversal for
       the menu. It draws the shadow  in  the  armed  state  and,
       unless  the button is already armed, calls the XmNarmCallback
 callbacks.

              Outside a menu, if the button was previously unset,
              this  action  does the following: If XmNindicatorOn
              is True, it draws the indicator shadow so that  the
              indicator  looks  pressed;  if  XmNfillOnSelect  is
              True, it fills the indicator with the color  specified
 by XmNselectColor. If XmNindicatorOn is False,
              it draws the button shadow so that the button looks
              pressed.  If  XmNlabelType  is XmPIXMAP, the XmNselectPixmap
 is used as the button  face.  Calls  the
              XmNarmCallback callbacks.

              Outside  a  menu, if the button was previously set,
              this action does the following: If both  XmNindicatorOn
  and XmNvisibleWhenOff are True, it draws the
              indicator  shadow  so  that  the  indicator   looks
              raised;  if  XmNfillOnSelect  is True, it fills the
              indicator with the background color. If  XmNindicatorOn
  is False, it draws the button shadow so that
              the  button  looks  raised.  If   XmNlabelType   is
              XmPIXMAP,  the XmNlabelPixmap is used as the button
              face. Calls the  XmNarmCallback  callbacks.   In  a
              menu,  this  action  does the following: It unposts
              all menus in the menu hierarchy. If the  ToggleButtonGadget
  was  previously  set,  unsets it; if the
              ToggleButtonGadget was previously unset,  sets  it.
              It  calls the XmNvalueChangedCallback callbacks and
              then the XmNdisarmCallback callbacks.

              If the button is outside a menu and the pointer  is
              within  the button, this action does the following:
              If the button was previously unset, sets it; if the
              button  was  previously  set,  unsets it. Calls the
              XmNvalueChangedCallback callbacks.

              If the button is outside a menu, calls the  XmNdisarmCallback
  callbacks.   In  a  Pulldown  or Popup
              MenuPane, unposts all menus in the  menu  hierarchy
              and,  when  the  shell's  keyboard  focus policy is
              XmEXPLICT, restores keyboard focus  to  the  widget
              that  had  the  focus  before  the  menu system was
              entered. Calls the callbacks for XmNhelpCallback if
              any  exist. If there are no help callbacks for this
              widget, this action calls the  help  callbacks  for
              the  nearest  ancestor  that  has them.  In a menu,
              does the following: unposts all menus in  the  menu
              hierarchy;  unless  the  button  is  already armed,
              calls the XmNarmCallback callbacks; and  calls  the
              XmNvalueChangedCallback and XmNdisarmCallback callbacks.
  Outside a menu, if the parent is a manager,
              passes  the event to the parent.  If the ToggleButtonGadget
 was previously set,  unsets  it;  if  the
              ToggleButtonGadget was previously unset, sets it.

              In a menu, does the following: Unposts all menus in
              the menu hierarchy.  Unless the button  is  already
              armed,  calls  the  XmNarmCallback callbacks. Calls
              the XmNvalueChangedCallback  and  XmNdisarmCallback
              callbacks.

              Outside a menu, if the button was previously unset,
              this action does the following:  If  XmNindicatorOn
              is  True, it draws the indicator shadow so that the
              indicator  looks  pressed;  if  XmNfillOnSelect  is
              True,  it fills the indicator with the color specified
 by XmNselectColor. If XmNindicatorOn is False,
              it draws the button shadow so that the button looks
              pressed. If XmNlabelType is  XmPIXMAP,  the  XmNselectPixmap
  is  used  as the button face. Calls the
              XmNarmCallback, XmNvalueChangedCallback, XmNdisarmCallback
 callbacks.

              Outside  a  menu, if the button was previously set,
              this action does the following: If both  XmNindicatorOn
  and XmNvisibleWhenOff are True, it draws the
              indicator  shadow  so  that  the  indicator   looks
              raised;  if  XmNfillOnSelect  is True, it fills the
              indicator with the background color. If  XmNindicatorOn
  is False, it draws the button shadow so that
              the  button  looks  raised.  If   XmNlabelType   is
              XmPIXMAP,  the XmNlabelPixmap is used as the button
              face. Calls  the  XmNarmCallback,  XmNvalueChangedCallback,
  and  XmNdisarmCallback  callbacks.  In a
              toplevel Pulldown MenuPane from a MenuBar,  unposts
              the menu, disarms the MenuBar CascadeButton and the
              MenuBar, and, when the shell's keyboard focus  policy
  is  XmEXPLICT,  restores keyboard focus to the
              widget that had the focus before  the  MenuBar  was
              entered.  In  other Pulldown MenuPanes, unposts the
              menu. Outside a menu, if the parent is  a  manager,
              this action passes the event to the parent.

              In  a Popup MenuPane, unposts the menu and restores
              keyboard focus to the widget from  which  the  menu
              was  posted.   In  a menu, if keyboard traversal is
              enabled, this action does  nothing.  Otherwise,  it
              draws  the  shadow in the armed state and calls the
              XmNarmCallback callbacks.

              If the ToggleButtonGadget is not in a menu and  the
              cursor  leaves  and then reenters the ToggleButtonGadget
 while the button  is  pressed,  this  action
              restores the button's armed appearance.  In a menu,
              if keyboard traversal is enabled, this action  does
              nothing.  Otherwise,  it  draws  the  shadow in the
              unarmed state and calls the XmNdisarmCallback callbacks.


              If  the ToggleButtonGadget is not in a menu and the
              cursor leaves the ToggleButtonGadget while the button
  is  pressed, this action restores the button's
              unarmed appearance.
