NAME
       XmLabel -- The Label widget class

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<Xm/Label.h>

DESCRIPTION
       Label  is  an  instantiable widget and is also used as a	superclass for
       other button widgets, such as PushButton	and  ToggleButton.  The	 Label
       widget  does  not accept	any button or key input, and the help callback
       is the only callback defined.  Label  also  receives  enter  and	 leave
       events.

       Label  can  contain  either  text or a pixmap. Label text is a compound
       string. Refer to	the Motif Programmer's Guide for more  information  on
       compound	strings.  The text can be multilingual,	multiline, and/or mul-
       tifont. When a Label is insensitive, its	text is	stippled, or the user-
       supplied	insensitive pixmap is displayed.

       Label supports both accelerators	and mnemonics primarily	for use	in La-
       bel subclass widgets that are contained in menus.  Mnemonics are	avail-
       able  in	 a  menu system	when the button	is visible.  Accelerators in a
       menu system are accessible even when the	button is  not	visible.   The
       Label  widget  displays	the mnemonic by	underlining the	first matching
       character in the	text string.  The accelerator is displayed as  a  text
       string  adjacent	 to  the label text or pixmap, depending on the	layout
       direction.

       Label consists of many margin fields surrounding	the  text  or  pixmap.
       These  margin fields are	resources that may be set by the user, but La-
       bel subclasses and Manager parents also modify some  of	these  fields.
       They  tend  to  modify the XmNmarginLeft, XmNmarginRight, XmNmarginTop,
       and XmNmarginBottom resources and leave the XmNmarginWidth and  XmNmar-
       ginHeight resources as set by the application.

       Label  takes  into account XmNshadowThickness in	determining its	layout
       but does	not draw the shadow. That is, if XmNshadowThickness is greater
       than 0 (zero), Label leaves space for the shadow, but the  shadow  does
       not appear.

       In  a Label, XmNtraversalOn and XmNhighlightOnEnter are forced to False
       inside Popup menu panes,	Pulldown menu panes, and OptionMenus.	Other-
       wise, these resources default to	False.

       Label  uses  the	 XmQTmenuSystem	and XmQTspecifyRenderTable traits, and
       holds the XmQTaccessTextual, XmQTmenuSavvy, and XmQTtransfer traits.

   Data	Transfer Behavior
       Label and it subclasses,	except when used in  a	menu  system,  support
       dragging	of the label contents from the Label.  However,	the label con-
       tents  are  draggable only if the XmNenableUnselectableDrag resource of
       XmDisplay is set	to True.

       As a source of data, Label and its  subclasses  support	the  following
       targets and associated conversions of data to these targets:

       locale	 If  the locale	target matches the widget's locale, the	widget
		 transfers XmNlabelString in the encoding of the locale.  This
		 target	 is  supported	when  XmNlabelType  is	 XmSTRING   or
		 XmPIXMAP_AND_STRING.

       COMPOUND_TEXT
		 The  widget  transfers	 XmNlabelString	as type	COMPOUND_TEXT.
		 This target is	supported when	XmNlabelType  is  XmSTRING  or
		 XmPIXMAP_AND_STRING.

       UTF8_STRING
		 The  widget  transfers	 XmNlabelString	 as  type UTF8_STRING.
		 This target is	supported when	XmNlabelType  is  XmSTRING  or
		 XmPIXMAP_AND_STRING.

       PIXMAP	 The  widget  transfers	XmNlabelPixmap as type DRAWABLE.  This
		 target	 is  supported	when  XmNlabelType  is	 XmPIXMAP   or
		 XmPIXMAP_AND_STRING.

       STRING	 The  widget  transfers	 XmNlabelString	 as type STRING.  This
		 target	 is  supported	when  XmNlabelType  is	 XmSTRING   or
		 XmPIXMAP_AND_STRING.

       TEXT	 If XmNlabelString is fully convertible	to the encoding	of the
		 locale,  the  widget transfers	XmNlabelString in the encoding
		 of the	locale.	 Otherwise,  the  widget  transfers  XmNlabel-
		 String	 as type COMPOUND_TEXT.	 This target is	supported only
		 when XmNlabelType is XmSTRING or XmPIXMAP_AND_STRING.

       _MOTIF_CLIPBOARD_TARGETS
		 The widget transfers, as type ATOM, a list of the targets  it
		 supports  for	the CLIPBOARD selection.  When XmNlabelType is
		 XmSTRING or XmPIXMAP_AND_STRING, these	include	the  following
		 targets:

		      _MOTIF_COMPOUND_STRING

		      COMPOUND_TEXT

		      UTF8_STRING

		      The  encoding of	the locale, if XmNlabelString is fully
		       convertible to the encoding of the locale

		      STRING,	if  XmNlabelString  is	fully  convertible  to
		       STRING

		 When  XmNlabelType  is	 XmPIXMAP  or XmPIXMAP_AND_STRING, the
		 targets include PIXMAP.

       _MOTIF_COMPOUND_STRING
		 The widget transfers XmNlabelString as	a compound  string  in
		 Byte  Stream format.  This target is supported	when XmNlabel-
		 Type is XmSTRING or XmPIXMAP_AND_STRING.

       _MOTIF_EXPORT_TARGETS
		 The widget transfers, as type ATOM, a list of the targets  to
		 be used as the	value of the DragContext's XmNexportTargets in
		 a  drag-and-drop  transfer.  When XmNlabelType	is XmSTRING or
		 XmPIXMAP_AND_STRING,  these  include  _MOTIF_COMPOUND_STRING,
		 COMPOUND_TEXT,	 UTF8_STRING,  the  encoding  of  the  locale,
		 STRING, TEXT, BACKGROUND, and FOREGROUND.  When  XmNlabelType
		 is  XmPIXMAP  or  XmPIXMAP_AND_STRING,	 these include PIXMAP,
		 BACKGROUND, and FOREGROUND.

       As a source of data, Label also supports	the following  standard	 Motif
       targets:

       BACKGROUND
		 The widget transfers XmNbackground as type PIXEL.

       CLASS	 The widget finds the first shell in the widget	hierarchy that
		 has a WM_CLASS	property and transfers the contents as text in
		 the current locale.

       CLIENT_WINDOW
		 The  widget finds the first shell in the widget hierarchy and
		 transfers its window as type WINDOW.

       COLORMAP	 The widget transfers XmNcolormap as type COLORMAP.

       FOREGROUND
		 The widget transfers XmNforeground as type PIXEL.

       NAME	 The widget finds the first shell in the widget	hierarchy that
		 has a WM_NAME property	and transfers the contents as text  in
		 the current locale.

       TARGETS	 The  widget transfers,	as type	ATOM, a	list of	the targets it
		 supports.  These include the standard targets in  this	 list.
		 When  XmNlabelType  is	XmSTRING or XmPIXMAP_AND_STRING, these
		 also	 include    _MOTIF_COMPOUND_STRING,	COMPOUND_TEXT,
		 UTF8_STRING,  the  encoding  of the locale, STRING, and TEXT.
		 When XmNlabelType is XmPIXMAP or  XmPIXMAP_AND_STRING,	 these
		 also include PIXMAP.

       TIMESTAMP The widget transfers the timestamp used to acquire the	selec-
		 tion as type INTEGER.

       _MOTIF_RENDER_TABLE
		 The widget transfers XmNrenderTable if	it exists, or else the
		 default text render table, as type STRING.

       _MOTIF_ENCODING_REGISTRY
		 The  widget  transfers	 its encoding registry as type STRING.
		 The value is a	list of	NULL separated items in	 the  form  of
		 tag encoding pairs.  This target symbolizes the transfer tar-
		 get for the Motif Segment Encoding Registry.  Widgets and ap-
		 plications  can  use  this Registry to	register text encoding
		 formats for specified render table tags.  Applications	access
		 this  Registry	 by  calling   XmRegisterSegmentEncoding   and
		 XmMapSegmentEncoding.

   Classes
       Label  inherits	behavior, resources, and traits	from Core and XmPrimi-
       tive.

       The class pointer is xmLabelWidgetClass.

       The class name is XmLabel.

   New Resources
       The following table defines a set of widget resources used by the  pro-
       grammer	to specify data. The programmer	can also set the resource val-
       ues 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).

       XmNaccelerator
		 Sets the accelerator on a button widget in a menu, which  ac-
		 tivates  a visible or invisible, but managed, button from the
		 keyboard.  This resource is a string that describes a set  of
		 modifiers  and	the key	that may be used to select the button.
		 The format of this string is identical	to that	 used  by  the
		 translations  manager,	 with the exception that only a	single
		 event may be specified	and only KeyPress events are allowed.

		 Accelerators for buttons are supported	only  for  PushButtons
		 and ToggleButtons in Pulldown and Popup menu panes.

       XmNacceleratorText
		 Specifies  the	 text displayed	for the	accelerator.  The text
		 is displayed adjacent to the label string or pixmap. The  di-
		 rection  of  its layout depends on the	XmNlayoutDirection re-
		 source	of the widget.	Accelerator text for buttons  is  dis-
		 played	only for PushButtons and ToggleButtons in Pulldown and
		 Popup Menus.

       XmNalignment
		 Specifies the label alignment for text	or pixmap.

		 XmALIGNMENT_BEGINNING (left alignment)
			   Causes  the	left  sides of the lines of text to be
			   vertically aligned with the left edge of the	widget
			   window. For a pixmap, its left side	is  vertically
			   aligned with	the left edge of the widget window.

		 XmALIGNMENT_CENTER (center alignment)
			   Causes  the centers of the lines of text to be ver-
			   tically aligned in the center of the	widget window.
			   For a pixmap, its center is vertically aligned with
			   the center of the widget window.

		 XmALIGNMENT_END (right	alignment)
			   Causes the right sides of the lines of text	to  be
			   vertically  aligned with the	right edge of the wid-
			   get window. For a pixmap, its right side is	verti-
			   cally  aligned  with	 the  right edge of the	widget
			   window.

		 The preceding descriptions for	text are correct when  XmNlay-
		 outDirection  is  XmLEFT_TO_RIGHT.  When that resource	is Xm-
		 RIGHT_TO_LEFT,	the descriptions for XmALIGNMENT_BEGINNING and
		 XmALIGNMENT_END are switched.

		 If the	parent is a RowColumn whose XmNisAligned  resource  is
		 True, XmNalignment is forced to the same value	as the RowCol-
		 umn's	XmNentryAlignment  if the RowColumn's XmNrowColumnType
		 is XmWORK_AREA	or if the widget is  a	subclass  of  XmLabel.
		 Otherwise, the	default	is XmALIGNMENT_CENTER.

       XmNfontList
		 Specifies  the	 font  of  the	text  used in the widget. XmN-
		 fontList is obsolete and exists for compatibility with	previ-
		 ous releases. You should now use  XmNrenderTable  instead  of
		 XmNfontList.  If  both	 are  specified, the render table will
		 take precedence. If XmNfontList is  NULL  at  initialization,
		 Label searches	its parent hierarchy for an ancestor that is a
		 subclass  of the XmBulletinBoard, VendorShell,	or XmMenuShell
		 widget	class. If such an ancestor is found, Label initializes
		 XmNfontList to	the XmNlabelFontList of	the  ancestor  widget.
		 Similarly,  button subclasses of Label	initialize XmNfontList
		 to the	XmNbuttonFontList of the ancestor widget.  (Currently,
		 all  subclasses  of  Label are	button subclasses.) If no such
		 ancestor is found, the	default	is  implementation  dependent.
		 Refer	to  XmFontList(3) for more information on the creation
		 and structure of a font list.

       XmNlabelInsensitivePixmap
		 Specifies a pixmap used as the	button face if XmNlabelType is
		 XmPIXMAP and the button is insensitive.  The  default	value,
		 XmUNSPECIFIED_PIXMAP, displays	an empty label.

       XmNlabelPixmap
		 Specifies   the  pixmap  when	XmNlabelType  is  XmPIXMAP  or
		 XmPIXMAP_AND_STRING.	 The   default	  value,    XmUNSPECI-
		 FIED_PIXMAP, displays an empty	label.

       XmNlabelString
		 Specifies  the	 compound string when XmNlabelType is XmSTRING
		 or XmPIXMAP_AND_STRING.  If this value	is NULL,  it  is  ini-
		 tialized  by  converting the name of the widget to a compound
		 string.  Refer	to XmString(3) for  more  information  on  the
		 creation and structure	of compound strings.

       XmNlabelType
		 Specifies the label type.

		 XmSTRING  Displays text using XmNlabelString.

		 XmPIXMAP  Displays pixmap using XmNlabelPixmap	or

		 XmPIXMAP_AND_STRING
			   Displays  text  and	pixmap using XmNlabelPixmap or
			   XmNlabelInsensitivePixmap and XmNlabelString.

       XmNmarginBottom
		 Specifies the amount of spacing between the bottom of the la-
		 bel text and the top of the bottom margin specified  by  XmN-
		 marginHeight.	 This  may  be modified	by Label's subclasses.
		 For example, CascadeButton may	increase this  field  to  make
		 room for the cascade pixmap.

       XmNmarginHeight
		 Specifies an equal amount of spacing above the	margin defined
		 by XmNmarginTop and below the margin defined by XmNmarginBot-
		 tom.  XmNmarginHeight specifies the amount of spacing between
		 the top edge of the margin set	by XmNmarginTop	and the	bottom
		 edge of the top shadow, and the amount	of spacing between the
		 bottom	edge of	the margin specified  by  XmNmarginBottom  and
		 the top edge of the bottom shadow.

       XmNmarginLeft
		 Specifies  the	amount of spacing between the left edge	of the
		 label text and	the right side of the left  margin  (specified
		 by  XmNmarginWidth).	This  may  be modified by Label's sub-
		 classes. For example, ToggleButton may	increase this field to
		 make room for the toggle indicator and	 for  spacing  between
		 the  indicator	 and  label.  Whether this actually applies to
		 the left or right side	of the label depends on	the  value  of
		 the XmNlayoutDirection	resource.

       XmNmarginRight
		 Specifies the amount of spacing between the right edge	of the
		 label	text  and the left side	of the right margin (specified
		 by XmNmarginWidth).  This may be  modified  by	 Label's  sub-
		 classes.  For	example, CascadeButton may increase this field
		 to make room for the cascade pixmap.  Whether	this  actually
		 applies to the	left or	right side of the label	depends	on the
		 value of the XmNlayoutDirection resource.

       XmNmarginTop
		 Specifies  the	amount of spacing between the top of the label
		 text and the bottom of	the top	margin specified by XmNmargin-
		 Height.  This may be modified by Label's subclasses. For  ex-
		 ample,	CascadeButton may increase this	field to make room for
		 the cascade pixmap.

       XmNmarginWidth
		 Specifies  an equal amount of spacing to the left of the mar-
		 gin defined by	XmNmarginLeft and to the right of  the	margin
		 defined   by  XmNmarginRight.	XmNmarginWidth	specifies  the
		 amount	of spacing between the left edge of the	margin set  by
		 XmNmarginLeft	and the	right edge of the left shadow, and the
		 amount	of spacing between the right edge of the margin	speci-
		 fied by XmNmarginRight	and the	left edge of the right shadow.

       XmNmnemonic
		 Provides the user with	an alternate  means  of	 activating  a
		 button.  A button in a	MenuBar, a Popup menu pane, or a Pull-
		 down menu pane	can have a mnemonic.

		 This  resource	 contains a keysym as listed in	the X11	keysym
		 table.	 The first character in	the label string that  exactly
		 matches  the mnemonic in the character	set specified in XmNm-
		 nemonicCharSet	is underlined when the button is displayed.

		 When a	mnemonic has been specified, the  user	activates  the
		 button	by pressing the	mnemonic key while the button is visi-
		 ble.	If  the	button is a CascadeButton in a MenuBar and the
		 MenuBar does not have the focus, the user must	use  the  MAlt
		 modifier  while pressing the mnemonic.	 The user can activate
		 the button by pressing	either the shifted  or	the  unshifted
		 mnemonic key.

       XmNmnemonicCharSet
		 Specifies  the	 character  set	of the mnemonic	for the	label.
		 The default is	XmFONTLIST_DEFAULT_TAG.

       XmNpixmapPlacement
		 The location of the pixmap with respect to  the  text	label.
		 This	resource   can	take  one  of  the  following  values:
		 XmPIXMAP_TOP,	   XmPIXMAP_BOTTOM,	XmPIXMAP_LEFT,	   and
		 XmPIXMAP_RIGHT.  A  type  converter  has been registered that
		 converts the following	strings: "top",	"bottom", "left",  and
		 "right".

       XmNpixmapTextPadding
		 The amount of space to	be left	between	the pixmap and the la-
		 bel string.

       XmNrecomputeSize
		 Specifies  a  Boolean value that indicates whether the	widget
		 shrinks or expands to accommodate its contents	(label	string
		 or  pixmap) as	a result of an XtSetValues resource value that
		 would change the size of the  widget.	If  True,  the	widget
		 shrinks or expands to exactly fit the label string or pixmap.
		 If  False,  the  widget  never	attempts to change size	on its
		 own.

       XmNrenderTable
		 Specifies the render table associated with  the  labelString.
		 If  this  value is NULL at initialization, Label searches its
		 parent	hierarchy for an ancestor that	holds  the  XmQTspeci-
		 fyRenderTable	trait.	 If  such  an ancestor is found, Label
		 initializes XmNrenderTable to the XmLABEL_RENDER_TABLE	 value
		 of the	ancestor widget. Similarly, button subclasses of Label
		 initialize  XmNrenderTable to the XmBUTTON_RENDER_TABLE value
		 of the	ancestor widget. (Note that all	current	subclasses  of
		 Label	are  button subclasses.) If no such ancestor is	found,
		 the default is	implementation dependent. If a font list and a
		 render	table are both sepcified, the render table  will  take
		 precedence. Refer to XmRenderTable(3) for more	information on
		 the creation and structure of a render	table.

       XmNstringDirection
		 Is  a synthetic resource for setting XmNlayoutDirection.  The
		 values	for this resource  are	XmSTRING_DIRECTION_L_TO_R  and
		 XmSTRING_DIRECTION_R_TO_L.  Refer  to	the XmNlayoutDirection
		 resource description. The XmNstringDirection resource is  ob-
		 soleted  by XmNlayoutDirection, but is	kept here for backward
		 compatibility.

   Inherited Resources
       Label inherits behavior and resources from the following	 superclasses.
       For  a  complete	 description  of each resource,	refer to the reference
       page for	that superclass.

   Translations
       XmLabel includes	translations from Primitive.  The XmLabel translations
       are described in	the following list.

       The following key names are listed in the X standard key	event transla-
       tion table syntax.  This	format is the one used by Motif	to specify the
       widget actions corresponding to a given key.  A brief overview  of  the
       format  is  provided under VirtualBindings(3).  For a complete descrip-
       tion of the format, please refer	to the X Toolkit Instrinsics  Documen-
       tation.

       <Btn2Down>:
		 ProcessDrag()

       :<Key><osfHelp>:
		 Help()

       The  translations  used by subclasses of	XmLabel	for menu traversal are
       described in the	following list.

       :<Key><osfCancel>:
		 MenuEscape()

       :<Key><osfLeft>:
		 MenuTraverseLeft()

       :<Key><osfRight>:
		 MenuTraverseRight()

       :<Key><osfUp>:
		 MenuTraverseUp()

       :<Key><osfDown>:
		 MenuTraverseDown()

   Action Routines
       The XmLabel action routines are

       Help():	 In a Popup or Pulldown	MenuPane, unposts  all	menus  in  the
		 menu hierarchy	and, when the shell's keyboard focus policy is
		 XmEXPLICIT,  restores	keyboard  focus	to the widget that had
		 the focus before the menu  system  was	 entered.   Calls  the
		 callbacks  for	XmNhelpCallback	if any exist.  If there	are no
		 help callbacks	for this widget, this action  calls  the  help
		 callbacks for the nearest ancestor that has them.

       MenuEscape():
		 In  a	MenuBar,  disarms  the CascadeButton and the menu and,
		 when the shell's keyboard focus  policy  is  XmEXPLICIT,  re-
		 stores	keyboard focus to the widget that had the focus	before
		 the menu was entered.

		 In  a top-level Pulldown MenuPane from	a MenuBar, unposts the
		 menu, disarms the MenuBar CascadeButton and the MenuBar, and,
		 when the shell's keyboard focus  policy  is  XmEXPLICIT,  re-
		 stores	keyboard focus to the widget that had the focus	before
		 the  MenuBar  was  entered.  In other Pulldown	MenuPanes, un-
		 posts the menu	and moves the focus to its CascadeButton.

		 In a Popup MenuPane, unposts the menu and, when  the  shell's
		 keyboard  focus policy	is XmEXPLICIT, restores	keyboard focus
		 to the	widget from which the menu was posted.

       MenuTraverseDown():
		 If the	current	menu item has a	submenu	and is in  a  MenuBar,
		 then  this action posts the submenu, disarms the current menu
		 item, and arms	the submenu's first traversable	menu item.

		 If the	current	menu item is in	a MenuPane, then  this	action
		 disarms  the  current	menu  item and arms the	item below it.
		 This action wraps within the MenuPane.	The direction  of  the
		 wrapping depends on the XmNlayoutDirection resource.

       MenuTraverseLeft():
		 When  the current menu	item is	in a MenuBar, then this	action
		 disarms the current item and arms the	MenuBar	 item  to  the
		 left.	This action wraps within the MenuBar.

		 In  MenuPanes,	 if  the  current menu item is not at the left
		 edge of a MenuPane, this action disarms the current item  and
		 arms  the  item  to its left.	If the current menu item is at
		 the left edge of a submenu attached to	a MenuBar  item,  then
		 this  action unposts the submenu and traverses	to the MenuBar
		 item to the left, wrapping if necessary. If that MenuBar item
		 has a submenu,	it posts the submenu and arms the  first  tra-
		 versable item in the submenu.	If the current menu item is at
		 the left edge of a submenu not	directly attached to a MenuBar
		 item, then this action	unposts	the current submenu only.

		 In Popup or Torn-off MenuPanes, when the current menu item is
		 at  the  left edge, this action wraps within the MenuPane. If
		 the current menu item is at the left edge of the MenuPane and
		 not in	the top	row, this action wraps to the  rightmost  menu
		 item in the row above.	If the current menu item is in the up-
		 per,  leftmost	corner,	this action wraps to the tear-off con-
		 trol, if present, or else it wraps to the  bottom,  rightmost
		 menu item in the MenuPane.  The preceding description applies
		 when  the  XmNlayoutDirection	horizontal  direction  is  Xm-
		 LEFT_TO_RIGHT.	If the XmNlayoutDirection horizontal direction
		 is XmRIGHT_TO_LEFT, then the following	applies.

		 If the	current	menu item is in	a MenuBar,  then  this	action
		 disarms  the  current	item  and arms the MenuBar item	to the
		 left.	This action wraps within the MenuBar.

		 In MenuPanes, if the current menu item	 is  a	CascadeButton,
		 then  this  action posts its associated submenu.  If the cur-
		 rent menu item	is not a CascadeButton and is not at the  left
		 edge  of a MenuPane, this action disarms the current item and
		 arms the item to its left, wrapping  if  necessary.   If  the
		 current  menu	item is	not a CascadeButton and	is at the left
		 edge of a submenu that	is a descendent	 of  a	MenuBar,  then
		 this action unposts all submenus and traverses	to the MenuBar
		 item  to  the	left.	If that	MenuBar	item has a submenu, it
		 posts the submenu and arms the	 submenu's  first  traversable
		 item.

		 In Popup or Torn-off menus, if	the current menu item is not a
		 CascadeButton	and  is	 at the	left edge of a row (except the
		 bottom	row), this action wraps	to the rightmost menu item  in
		 the  row below. If the	current	menu item is not a CascadeBut-
		 ton and is in the bottom, leftmost corner of a	Popup or Pull-
		 down MenuPane,	this action wraps to the tear-off control,  if
		 present,  or else it wraps to the top,	rightmost menu item of
		 the MenuPane.

       MenuTraverseRight():
		 If the	current	menu item is in	a MenuBar,  then  this	action
		 disarms  the  current	item  and arms the MenuBar item	to the
		 right.	 This action wraps within the MenuBar.

		 In MenuPanes, if the current menu item	 is  a	CascadeButton,
		 then  this  action posts its associated submenu.  If the cur-
		 rent menu item	is not a CascadeButton and is not at the right
		 edge of a MenuPane, this action disarms the current item  and
		 arms  the  item  to its right,	wrapping if necessary.	If the
		 current menu item is not a CascadeButton and is at the	 right
		 edge  of  a  submenu  that is a descendent of a MenuBar, then
		 this action unposts all submenus and traverses	to the MenuBar
		 item to the right.  If	that MenuBar item has  a  submenu,  it
		 posts	the  submenu  and arms the submenu's first traversable
		 item.

		 In Popup or Torn-off menus, if	the current menu item is not a
		 CascadeButton and is at the right edge	of a row  (except  the
		 bottom	 row),	this action wraps to the leftmost menu item in
		 the row below.	If the current menu item is not	a  CascadeBut-
		 ton  and  is  in  the	bottom,	rightmost corner of a Popup or
		 Pulldown MenuPane, this action	wraps to the tear-off control,
		 if present, or	else it	wraps to the top, leftmost  menu  item
		 of  the MenuPane.  The	preceding description applies when the
		 XmNlayoutDirection horizontal direction  is  XmLEFT_TO_RIGHT.
		 If   the   XmNlayoutDirection	horizontal  direction  is  Xm-
		 RIGHT_TO_LEFT,	then the following applies.  When the  current
		 menu  item is in a MenuBar, then this action disarms the cur-
		 rent item and arms the	MenuBar	item to	the left.  This	action
		 wraps within the MenuBar.

		 In MenuPanes, if the current menu item	is not	at  the	 right
		 edge  of a MenuPane, this action disarms the current item and
		 arms the item to its right.  If the current menu item	is  at
		 the  right edge of a submenu attached to a MenuBar item, then
		 this action unposts the submenu and traverses to the  MenuBar
		 item  to  the	right,	wrapping if necessary. If that MenuBar
		 item has a submenu, it	posts the submenu and arms  the	 first
		 traversable item in the submenu.  If the current menu item is
		 at  the  right	 edge  of a submenu not	directly attached to a
		 MenuBar item, then this action	unposts	 the  current  submenu
		 only.

		 In Popup or Torn-off MenuPanes, when the current menu item is
		 at  the right edge, this action wraps within the MenuPane. If
		 the current menu item is at the right edge  of	 the  MenuPane
		 and  not  in  the  top	row, this action wraps to the leftmost
		 menu item in the row above. If	the current menu  item	is  in
		 the  upper,  rightmost	corner,	this action wraps to the tear-
		 off control, if present, or else  it  wraps  to  the  bottom,
		 leftmost menu item in the MenuPane.

       MenuTraverseUp():
		 When the current menu item is in a MenuPane, then this	action
		 disarms  the  current	menu  item and arms the	item above it.
		 This action wraps within the MenuPane.	The direction  of  the
		 wrapping depends on the XmNlayoutDirection resource.

       ProcessDrag():
		 Drags	the  contents of a Label, identified when BTransfer is
		 pressed.  This	action sets the	XmNconvertProc of the DragCon-
		 text to a function that calls the  XmNconvertCallback	proce-
		 dures,	 possibly  multiple  times, for	the _MOTIF_DROP	selec-
		 tion.	This action is undefined for Labels  used  in  a  menu
		 system.
