XtPopup(3)			  XT FUNCTIONS			      XtPopup(3)

NAME
     XtPopup,	XtPopupSpringLoaded,   XtCallbackNone,	 XtCallbackNonexclusive,
     XtCallbackExclusive - map a pop-up

SYNTAX
     #include <X11/Intrinsic.h>

     void XtPopup(Widget popup_shell, XtGrabKind grab_kind);

     void XtPopupSpringLoaded(Widget popup_shell);

     void XtCallbackNone(Widget w, XtPointer client_data, XtPointer call_data);

     void  XtCallbackNonexclusive(Widget  w,  XtPointer  client_data,  XtPointer
	    call_data);

     void   XtCallbackExclusive(Widget	 w,   XtPointer  client_data,  XtPointer
	    call_data);

ACTIONS
     void XtMenuPopup(String shell_name);

ARGUMENTS
     call_data Specifies the callback data, which is not used by this procedure.

     client_data
	       Specifies the pop-up shell.

     grab_kind Specifies the way in which user events should be constrained.

     popup_shell
	       Specifies the widget shell.

     w	       Specifies the widget.

DESCRIPTION
     The XtPopup function performs the following:

     *	  Calls XtCheckSubclass to ensure popup_shell is a subclass of Shell.

     *	  Generates an error if the shell's popped_up field is already True.

     *	  Calls the callback procedures on the shell's popup_callback list.

     *	  Sets the shell popped_up field to True, the shell spring_loaded  field
	  to False, and the shell grab_kind field from grab_kind.

     *	  If  the shell's create_popup_child field is non-NULL, XtPopup calls it
	  with popup_shell as the parameter.

     *	  If grab_kind	is  either  XtGrabNonexclusive	or  XtGrabExclusive,  it
	  calls:

	    XtAddGrab(popup_shell, (grab_kind == XtGrabExclusive), False)

     *	  Calls XtRealizeWidget with popup_shell specified.

     *	  Calls XMapWindow with popup_shell specified.

     The XtPopupSpringLoaded function performs exactly as XtPopup except that it
     sets  the shell spring_loaded field to True and always calls XtAddGrab with
     exclusive True and spring_loaded True.

     The XtCallbackNone, XtCallbackNonexclusive, and  XtCallbackExclusive  func-
     tions call XtPopup with the shell specified by the client data argument and
     grab_kind	 set   as   the  name  specifies.   XtCallbackNone,  XtCallback-
     Nonexclusive, and XtCallbackExclusive specify  XtGrabNone,  XtGrabNonexclu-
     sive,  and XtGrabExclusive, respectively.	Each function then sets the wid-
     get that executed the callback list to be insensitive by using  XtSetSensi-
     tive.   Using these functions in callbacks is not required.  In particular,
     an application must provide customized code for callbacks that create  pop-
     up shells dynamically or that must do more than desensitizing the button.

     XtMenuPopup is known to the translation manager, which must perform special
     actions  for  spring-loaded pop-ups.  Calls to XtMenuPopup in a translation
     specification are mapped into calls to a nonexported action procedure,  and
     the translation manager fills in parameters based on the event specified on
     the left-hand side of a translation.

     If  XtMenuPopup  is  invoked  on ButtonPress (possibly with modifiers), the
     translation manager pops up the shell with grab_kind set to XtGrabExclusive
     and spring_loaded set to True.  If XtMenuPopup is	invoked  on  EnterWindow
     (possibly	with  modifiers), the translation manager pops up the shell with
     grab_kind set to XtGrabNonexclusive and spring_loaded set to False.  Other-
     wise, the translation manager generates  an  error.   When  the  widget  is
     popped up, the following actions occur:

     *	  Calls XtCheckSubclass to ensure popup_shell is a subclass of Shell.

     *	  Generates an error if the shell's popped_up field is already True.

     *	  Calls the callback procedures on the shell's popup_callback list.

     *	  Sets	the  shell  popped_up  field to True and the shell grab_kind and
	  spring_loaded fields appropriately.

     *	  If the shell's create_popup_child field is non-NULL, it is called with
	  popup_shell as the parameter.

     *	  Calls:

	    XtAddGrab(popup_shell, (grab_kind == XtGrabExclusive), spring_loaded)

     *	  Calls XtRealizeWidget with popup_shell specified.

     *	  Calls XMapWindow with popup_shell specified.

     (Note that these actions are the same as those for  XtPopup.)   XtMenuPopup
     tries to find the shell by searching the widget tree starting at the parent
     of  the widget in which it is invoked.  If it finds a shell with the speci-
     fied name in the pop-up children of that parent, it pops up the shell  with
     the  appropriate  parameters.   Otherwise,  it moves up the parent chain as
     needed.  If XtMenuPopup gets to the application widget and  cannot  find  a
     matching shell, it generates an error.
