XmStringDrawImage

NAME

XmStringDrawImage - A compound string function that draws a compound string in an X Window and creates an image

SYNOPSIS

#include <Xm/Xm.h>
void XmStringDrawImage (d, w, fontlist, string, gc, x, y, width, alignment,
          layout_direction, clip)
      Display        * d;
      Window         w;
      XmFontList     fontlist;
      XmString       string;
      GC             gc;
      Position       x;
      Position       y;
      Dimension      width;
      unsigned char  alignment;
      unsigned char  layout_direction;
      XRectangle     * clip;

DESCRIPTION

XmStringDrawImage draws a compound string in an X Window and paints both the foreground and background bits of each character. If a compound string segment uses a font list entry that defines a font set, the graphic context passed to this routine will have the GC font member left in an undefined state. The underlying XmbStringDraw function called by this routine modifies the font id field of the GC passed into it and does not attempt to restore the font id to the incoming value. If the compound string segment is not drawn using a font set, the graphic context must contain a valid font member. Graphic contexts created by XtGetGC are not accepted by this routine; instead, use XtAllocateGC to create a graphic context.

d

Specifies the display.

w

Specifies the window.

fontlist

Specifies the font list.

string

Specifies the string.

gc

Specifies the graphics context to use.

x

Specifies a coordinate of the rectangle that will contain the displayed compound string.

y

Specifies a coordinate of the rectangle that will contain the displayed compound string.

width

Specifies the width of the rectangle that will contain the displayed compound string.

alignment

Specifies how the string will be aligned within the specified rectangle. It is either XmALIGNMENT_BEGINNING, XmALIGNMENT_CENTER, or XmALIGNMENT_END.

layout_direction

Controls the direction in which the segments of the compound string will be laid out. It also determines the meaning of the alignment parameter.

clip

Allows the application to restrict the area into which the compound string will be drawn. If NULL, no clipping will be done.
