NAME

       XmDialogShell — The DialogShell widget class "XmDialogShell" "widget class" "DialogShell"

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/DialogS.h>

DESCRIPTION

       Modal and modeless dialogs use DialogShell as the Shell parent.  DialogShell widgets cannot be iconified.
       Instead,  all  secondary DialogShell widgets associated with an ApplicationShell widget are iconified and
       de-iconified as a group with the primary widget.

       The client indirectly manipulates DialogShell through the convenience interfaces during creation, and  it
       can  directly  manipulate  its  BulletinBoard-derived  child.   Much  of the functionality of DialogShell
       assumes that its child is a BulletinBoard subclass, although it can potentially stand alone.

       Setting XmNheight, XmNwidth, or XmNborderWidth for either a DialogShell or its managed child usually sets
       that resource to the same value in both the parent and the  child.  When  an  off-the-spot  input  method
       exists,  the  height  and  width  of the shell may be greater than those of the managed child in order to
       accommodate the input method.  In this case, setting  XmNheight  or  XmNwidth  for  the  shell  does  not
       necessarily  set  that resource to the same value in the managed child, and setting XmNheight or XmNwidth
       for the child does not necessarily set that resource to the same value in the shell.

       For the managed child of a DialogShell, regardless  of  the  value  of  the  shell's  XmNallowShellResize
       resource,  setting  XmNx  or  XmNy  sets the corresponding resource of the parent but does not change the
       child's position relative to the parent.  The XtGetValues resource for the child's XmNx  or  XmNy  yields
       the value of the corresponding resource in the parent.  The x and y-coordinates of the child's upper left
       outside  corner  relative  to  the parent's upper left inside corner are both 0 (zero) minus the value of
       XmNborderWidth.

       Note that the Inter-Client Communication Conventions Manual (ICCCM) allows a window manager to change  or
       control the border width of a reparented top-level window.

       DialogShell uses the XmQTdialogShellSavvy trait.

   Classes
       DialogShell  inherits  behavior,  resources,  and  traits  from  the  Core,  Composite,  Shell,  WMShell,
       VendorShell, and TransientShell classes.

       The class pointer is xmDialogShellWidgetClass.

       The class name is XmDialogShell.

   New Resources
       DialogShell defines no new resources but overrides the  XmNdeleteResponse  resource  in  the  VendorShell
       class.

   Inherited Resources
       DialogShell  inherits  behavior  and  resources  from the superclasses described in the following tables,
       which define sets of widget resources used by the programmer to specify data.

       For a complete description of each resource, refer to  the  reference  page  for  that  superclass.   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).
