XtConfigureWidget, XtMoveWidget, XtResizeWidget - move and
resize widgets
SYNTAX
void XtConfigureWidget(w, x, y, width, height, bor-
der_width)
Widget w;
Position x;
Position y;
Dimension width;
Dimension height;
Dimension border_width;
void XtMoveWidget(w, x, y)
Widget w;
Position x;
Position y;
void XtResizeWidget(w, width, height, border_width)
Widget w;
Dimension width;
Dimension height;
Dimension border_width;
void XtResizeWindow(w)
Widget w;
ARGUMENTS
width
height
border_width
Specify the new widget size.
w Specifies the widget.
x
y Specify the new widget x and y coordinates.
DESCRIPTION
The XtConfigureWidget function returns immediately if the
specified geometry fields are the same as the old values.
Otherwise, XtConfigureWidget writes the new x, y, width,
height, and border_width values into the widget and, if
the widget is realized, makes an Xlib XConfigureWindow
call on the widget's window.
If either the new width or height is different from its
old value, XtConfigureWidget calls the widget's resize
procedure to notify it of the size change; otherwise, it
simply returns.
The XtMoveWidget function returns immediately if the spec-
ified geometry fields are the same as the old values.

XtConfigureWidget(3Xt) XT FUNCTIONS XtConfigureWidget(3Xt)
Otherwise, XtMoveWidget writes the new x and y values into
the widget and, if the widget is realized, issues an Xlib
XMoveWindow call on the widget's window.
The XtResizeWidget function returns immediately if the
specified geometry fields are the same as the old values.
Otherwise, XtResizeWidget writes the new width, height,
and border_width values into the widget and, if the widget
is realized, issues an XConfigureWindow call on the wid-
get's window.
If the new width or height are different from the old val-
ues, XtResizeWidget calls the widget's resize procedure to
notify it of the size change.
The XtResizeWindow function calls the XConfigureWindow
Xlib function to make the window of the specified widget
match its width, height, and border width. This request
is done unconditionally because there is no way to tell if
these values match the current values. Note that the wid-
get's resize procedure is not called.
There are very few times to use XtResizeWindow; instead,
you should use XtResizeWidget.
