Motif and CDE 2.1 Style Guide Certification Checklist



Window Frame

[ ]
Provide a window frame and title bar in all windows, except those that are part of the workspace.

[ ]
Do not place any window control outside the boundary formed by the sizing border.

[ ]
The window menu button should represent a cascading choice that leads to the display of the window menu.

[ ]
Support moving a window when the user presses either the SELECT or TRANSFER button on the title bar and moves the mouse.

[ ]
Align the bottom of the title bar with the top of the client area.

[ ]
Place the window title in the title bar.

[ ]
If you provide a maximize and a restore button (only one of which is displayed at a time), align the button's right border with the right border of the client area.

[ ]
Place the right border of the minimize button next to the left border of the maximize or restore button.

[ ]
Align the left border of the window menu button with the left border of the client area.

[ ]
If you add more buttons for window manager functions on the window frame, place the buttons directly to the left of the minimize button or directly to the right of the window menu button. Design each button to correspond to a choice in the window menu.
