XmPrintSetup(3)


NAME

   XmPrintSetup --- setup and create a Print Shell widget

SYNOPSIS

   #include <Xm/Print.h>
   Widget XmPrintSetup(
   Widget video_widget,
   Screen *print_screen,
   String print_shell_name,
   ArgList args,
   Cardinal num_args);

DESCRIPTION

   A  function  that  does  the appropriate setting and creates a realized
   XmPrintShell that it returns to the caller.  This  function  hides  the
   details  of  the  Xt  to  set  up a valid print shell hierarchy for the
   application. It is also meant  to  encourage  consistency  in  the  way
   applications root their print widget hierarchy.

   print_screen  must belong to a Display connection that has already been
   initialized with Xt.

   The video_widget is used to get at the application context, application
   name and class, and argc/argv stored on the applicationShell that roots
   this widget. If no applicationShell is found, NULL argv/argc are used.

   XmPrintSetup then creates an unrealized ApplicationShell with the  same
   name  and  class  as  the  one given by the video display, on the print
   display and on the print screen specified.

   An XmPrintShell is then created as a  child  of  this  toplevel  shell,
   using XtCreatePopupShell, with the name print_shell_name, and using the
   args provided. It then realizes and maps the print shell, using XtPopup
   with XtGrabNone.

   This  way,  application  resource  files  and  users  can specify print
   specific attributes using the following syntax (if print_shell_name  is
   "Print"):

   Dtpad.Print*textFontList: somefont
   *Print*background:white
   *Print*highlightThickness:0

   video_widget
             A video widget to fetch app video data from.

   print_screen
             A  print  screen  on the print display - specifies the screen
             onto which the new shell is created.

   print_shell_name
             Specifies the name of the XmPrintShell created on the X Print
             server.

   args      Specifies  the  argument list from which to get the resources
             for the XmPrintShell.

   num_args  Specifies the number of arguments in the argument list.

RETURN VALUE

   The  id  the  XmPrintShell  widget  created  on  the  X  Print   Server
   connection, or NULL if an error has occured.

ERRORS/WARNINGS

   None.

EXAMPLES

   From the OK callback and the SetUp callback of the primary print dialog
   widget:

   static void
   printOKCB(Widget, XtPointer call_data, XtPointer client_data)
   {
     AppPrint *p = (AppPrint *) client_data;
     DtPrintSetupCallbackStruct *pbs =
                            (XmPrintCallbackStruct *) call_data;

     /* connect if not already done.
        the print dialog callback always provides valid
                printer name, print display and screen
                already initialized: XpInitContext called */
    */
     p->print_shell = XmPrintSetup (widget, pbs->print_screen,
                                                 "Print", NULL, 0);

     ...
   }
