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(
Display * d,
Window w,
XmRenderTable rendertable,
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 com-
pound string segment uses a rendition that contains 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 XtAl-
locateGC to create a graphic context.
d Specifies the display.
w Specifies the window.
rendertable
Specifies the render table.
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, clipping will be determined
by the GC.
