Motif 2.1 Programmer's Reference
WMShell
The WMShell widget class
Format
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
#include <X11/Shell.h>
DESCRIPTION
WMShell is a top-level widget that encapsulates the interaction with the
window manager.
WMShell inherits behavior and resources from the Core, Composite, and
Shell classes.
The class pointer is wmShellWidgetClass.
The class name is WMShell.
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).

XmNbaseHeightSpecifies the base for a progression of preferred heights for the window
manager to use in sizing the widget. The preferred heights are XmNbaseHeight
plus integral multiples of XmNheightInc, with a minimum of XmNminHeight and a
maximum of XmNmaxHeight. If an initial value is not supplied for XmNbaseHeight
but is supplied for XmNbaseWidth, the value of XmNbaseHeight is set to 0
(zero) when the widget is realized.
XmNbaseWidthSpecifies the base for a progression of preferred widths for the window
manager to use in sizing the widget. The preferred widths are XmNbaseWidth
plus integral multiples of XmNwidthInc, with a minimum of XmNminWidth and a
maximum of XmNmaxWidth. If an initial value is not supplied for XmNbaseWidth
but is supplied for XmNbaseHeight, the value of XmNbaseWidth is set to 0
(zero) when the widget is realized.
XmNheightIncSpecifies the increment for a progression of preferred heights for the
window manager to use in sizing the widget. The preferred heights are
XmNbaseHeight plus integral multiples of XmNheightInc, with a minimum of
XmNminHeight and a maximum of XmNmaxHeight. If an initial value is not
supplied for XmNheightInc but is supplied for XmNwidthInc, the value of
XmNheightInc is set to 1 when the widget is realized.
XmNiconMaskSpecifies a bitmap that could be used by the window manager to clip the
XmNiconPixmap bitmap to make the icon nonrectangular.
XmNiconPixmapSpecifies a bitmap that could be used by the window manager as the
application's icon.
XmNiconWindowSpecifies the ID of a window that could be used by the window manager as
the application's icon.
XmNiconXSpecifies a suitable place to put the application's icon; this is a
hint to the window manager in root window coordinates. Because the window
manager controls icon placement policy, this resource may be ignored.
XmNiconYSpecifies a suitable place to put the application's icon; this is a
hint to the window manager in root window coordinates. Because the window
manager controls icon placement policy, this resource may be ignored.
XmNinitialStateSpecifies the state the application wants the widget instance to start in.
It must be one of the constants NormalState or IconicState.
XmNinputSpecifies the application's input model for this widget and its
descendants. The meaning of a True or False value for this resource depends on
the presence or absence of a WM_TAKE_FOCUS atom in the WM_PROTOCOLS
property:
Input Model |
XmNinput |
WM_TAKE_FOCUS |
No input |
False |
Absent |
Passive |
True |
Absent |
Locally active |
True |
Present |
Globally active |
False |

For more information on input models, see the X Consortium Standard
Inter-Client Communication Conventions Manual (ICCCM).
XmNmaxAspectXSpecifies the numerator of the maximum aspect ratio (X/Y) that the
application wants the widget instance to have.
XmNmaxAspectYSpecifies the denominator of the maximum aspect ratio (X/Y) that the
application wants the widget instance to have.
XmNmaxHeightSpecifies the maximum height that the application wants the widget
instance to have.
XmNmaxWidthSpecifies the maximum width that the application wants the widget instance
to have.
XmNminAspectXSpecifies the numerator of the minimum aspect ratio (X/Y) that the
application wants the widget instance to have.
XmNminAspectYSpecifies the denominator of the minimum aspect ratio (X/Y) that the
application wants the widget instance to have.
XmNminHeightSpecifies the minimum height that the application wants the widget
instance to have.
XmNminWidthSpecifies the minimum width that the application wants the widget instance
to have.
XmNtitleSpecifies the application name to be displayed by the window manager. The
default is the icon name, if specified; otherwise, it is the name of the
application. When XtGetValues is called on this resource, the returned value
is a pointer to the actual resource value and should not be freed.
XmNtitleEncodingSpecifies a property type that represents the encoding of the XmNtitle
string. If a language procedure has been set, the default is None; otherwise,
the default is XA_STRING. When the widget is realized, if the value
is None, the corresponding name is assumed to be in the current locale. The
name is passed to XmbTextListToTextProperty with an encoding style of
XStdICCTextStyle. The resulting encoding is STRING if the name is
fully convertible to STRING; otherwise it is COMPOUND_TEXT.
The values of the encoding resources are not changed; they remain None.
XmNtransientSpecifies a Boolean value that is True if the widget instance is
transient, typically a popup on behalf of another widget. The window manager
may treat a transient widget's window differently from other windows. For
example, a window manager may not iconify a transient window separately from
its associated application. Applications and users should not normally alter
this resource.
XmNwaitForWmWhen True, specifies that the Intrinsics waits the length of time given by
the XmNwmTimeout resource for the window manager to respond to certain actions
before assuming that there is no window manager present. This resource is
altered by the Intrinsics as it receives, or fails to receive, responses from
the window manager.
XmNwidthIncSpecifies the base for a progression of preferred widths for the window
manager to use in sizing the widget. The preferred widths are XmNbaseWidth
plus integral multiples of XmNwidthInc, with a minimum of XmNminWidth and a
maximum of XmNmaxWidth. If an initial value is not supplied for XmNwidthInc
but is supplied for XmNheightInc, the value of XmNwidthInc is set to 1 when
the widget is realized.
XmNwindowGroupSpecifies the ID of a window with which this widget instance is
associated. By convention, this window is the "leader" of a group of windows.
A window manager may treat all windows in a group in some way; for example, it
may always move or iconify them together.
If no initial value is specified, the value is set to the window of the
first realized ancestor widget in the parent hierarchy when the widget is
realized. If a value of XtUnspecifiedWindowGroup is specified, no window group
is set.
XmNwinGravitySpecifies the window gravity for use by the window manager in positioning
the widget. If no initial value is specified, the value is set when the widget
is realized. If XmNgeometry is not NULL, XmNwinGravity is set to the window
gravity returned by XWMGeometry. Otherwise, XmNwinGravity is set to
NorthWestGravity.
XmNwmTimeoutSpecifies the length of time that the Intrinsics waits for the window
manager to respond to certain actions before assuming that there is no window
manager present. The value is in milliseconds and must not be negative.
WMShell inherits behavior and resources from the superclasses described
in the following tables. For a complete description of each resource, refer to
