XmInstallImage(3X)		   OSF/Motif		    XmInstallImage(3X)

NAME
       XmInstallImage  -  A  pixmap caching function that adds an image to the
       pixmap cache

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Xm/Xm.h>

       Boolean	XmInstallImage	(image,	 image_name)	   XImage    *	image;
	    char      * image_name;

DESCRIPTION
       XmInstallImage stores an image in an image cache that can later be used
       to generate a pixmap.  Part of the installation process	is  to	extend
       the  resource  converter	 used to reference these images.  The resource
       converter is given the image name so that the image can	be  referenced
       in  a  .Xdefaults  file.	  Since an image can be referenced by a widget
       through its pixmap resources, it is up to  the  application  to	ensure
       that  the  image	 is installed before the widget is created.  Points to
       the image structure to be installed.  The installation process does not
       make  a local copy of the image.	 Therefore, the application should not
       destroy the image until it is uninstalled from the  caching  functions.
       Specifies  a string that the application uses to name the image.	 After
       installation, this name can be used in .Xdefaults for  referencing  the
       image.	A local copy of the name is created by the image caching func‐
       tions.

       The image caching functions provide a set of eight preinstalled images.
       These names can be used within a .Xdefaults file for generating pixmaps
       for the resource for which they are provided.

	    Image Name	    Description
	    ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
	    background	    A tile of solid background

	    75_foreground   A tile of 75% foreground, 25% background
	    horizontal	    A tile of horizontal lines of the two colors

	    slant_right	    A tile of slanting lines of the two colors
	    slant_left	    A tile of slanting lines of the two colors

       image_name, or duplicate image_name is used as a parameter value.
