The panes may be dynamically resized by the user by +using the \fIgrips\fP that appear near the right or bottom edge of the +border between two panes. +.LP +The Paned widget may accept any widget class as a pane \fBexcept\fP +Grip. Grip widgets have a special meaning for the Paned widget, and +adding a Grip as its own pane will confuse the Paned widget. +.NH 3 +Using the Paned Widget +.IN "Paned widget" "using" +.LP +The grips allow the panes to be resized by the user. The semantics of +how these panes resize is somewhat complicated, and warrants further +explanation here. When the mouse pointer is positioned on a grip and +pressed, an arrow is displayed that indicates the pane that is to be to +be resized. While keeping the mouse button down, the user can move the +grip up and down (or left and right). This, in turn, changes the size +of the pane. The size of the Paned widget will not change. Instead, +it chooses another pane (or panes) to resize. For more details on which +pane it chooses to resize, see \fBLayout Semantics\fP. +.LP +One pointer binding allows the border between two panes to be moved, +without affecting any of the other panes. When this occurs the pointer +will change to an arrow that points along the pane border. +.LP +The default bindings for the Paned widget's grips are: +.TS H +lw(1i) lw(2i) lw(2i). +_ +.sp 3p +.TB +Mouse button Pane to Resize - Vertical Pane to Resize - Horizontal +.sp 3p +_ +.TH +.R +.sp 3p +1 (left) above the grip left of the grip +2 (middle) adjust border adjust border +3 (right) below the grip right of the grip +.sp 3p +_ +.TE +.NH 3 +Resources +.LP +When creating a Paned widget instance, the following resources are +retrieved from the argument list or the resource database: +.LP +.IN "Paned widget" "resources" +.TS H +expand; +lw(1i) lw(1i) lw(1i) lw(.4i) lw(2i). +_ +.sp 3p +.TB +Name Class Type Notes Default Value +.sp 3p +_ +.TH +.R +.sp 3p +accelerators Accelerators AcceleratorTable NULL +ancestorSensitive AncestorSensitive Boolean D True +background Background Pixel XtDefaultBackground +backgroundPixmap Pixmap Pixmap XtUnspecifiedPixmap +betweenCursor Cursor Cursor A Depends on orientation +borderColor BorderColor Pixel XtDefaultForeground +borderPixmap Pixmap Pixmap XtUnspecifiedPixmap +borderWidth BorderWidth Dimension 1 +children ReadOnly WidgetList R NULL +colormap Colormap Colormap Parent's Colormap +cursor Cursor Cursor None +depth Depth int C Parent's Depth +destroyCallback Callback XtCallbackList NULL +gripCursor Cursor Cursor A Depends on orientation +gripIndent GripIndent Position 10 +gripTranslations Translations TranslationTable see below +height Height Dimension A Depends on orientation +horizontalBetweenCursor Cursor Cursor sb_up_arrow +horizontalGripCursor Cursor Cursor sb_h_double_arrow +internalBorderColor BorderColor Pixel XtDefaultForeground +internalBorderWidth BorderWidth Dimension 1 +leftCursor Cursor Cursor sb_left_arrow +lowerCursor Cursor Cursor sb_down_arrow +mappedWhenManaged MappedWhenManaged Boolean True +numChildren ReadOnly Cardinal R 0 +orientation Orientation Orientation XtorientVertical +refigureMode Boolean Boolean True +rightCursor Cursor Cursor sb_right_arrow +screen Screen Screen R Parent's Screen +sensitive Sensitive Boolean True +translations Translations TranslationTable NULL +upperCursor Cursor Cursor sb_up_arrow +verticalBetweenCursor Cursor Cursor sb_left_arrow +verticalGripCursor Cursor Cursor sb_v_double_arrow +width Width Dimension A Depends on orientation +x Paned Position 0 +y Paned Position 0 +.sp 3p +_ +.TE +.Ac +.As +.Bg +.Gp +.Bc +.Bp +.Bw +.Ch +.Cm +.IP \fBcursor\fP 1.5i +The cursor to use when the mouse pointer is over the Paned widget, but +not in any of its children (children may also inherit this cursor).

These values will +never be overridden by the Paned widget. This may cause some panes to be +pushed off the bottom (or right) edge of the paned widget. +.IP \fBpreferredPaneSize\fP 1.5i +Normally the paned widget makes a QueryGeometry call on a child to +determine the preferred size of the child's pane. There are times +when the application programmer or the user has a better idea of the +preferred size of a pane. Setting this resource causes the value +passed to be interpreted as the preferred size, in pixels, of this pane. +.IP \fBresizeToPreferred\fP 1.5i +Determines whether or not to resize each pane to its preferred size +when the Paned widget is resized. See \fBLayout Semantics\fP for details. +.IP \fBshowGrip\fP 1.5i +If \fBTrue\fP then a grip will be shown for this pane. The grip +associated with a pane is either below or to the right of the pane. No +grip is ever shown for the last pane. +.IP \fBskipAdjust\fP 1.5i +This resource is used to determine which pane is forced to be resized. +Setting this value to \fBTrue\fP makes this pane less likely to be +forced to be resized. See \fBLayout Semantics\fP for details. +.NH 3 +Layout Semantics +.LP +.IN "Paned widget" "layout semantics" +In order to make effective use of the Paned widget it is helpful to know +the rules it uses to determine which child will be resized in any given +situation. There are three rules used to determine which child is +resized. While these rules are always the same, the panes that are +searched can change depending upon what caused the relayout. +.LP +.sp +\fBLayout Rules\fP +.IP \fB1\fP .5i +Do not let a pane grow larger than its \fBmax\fP or smaller than its +\fBmin\fP. +.IP \fB2\fP .5i +Do not adjust panes with \fBskipAdjust\fP set. +.IP \fB3\fP .5i +Do not adjust panes away from their preferred size, although moving one +closer to its preferred size is fine. +.LP +When searching the children the Paned widget looks for panes that +satisfy all the rules, and if unsuccessful then it eliminates rule 3 +and then 2. Rule 1 is always enforced. +.LP +If the relayout is due to a resize or change in management then the +panes are searched from bottom to top. If the relayout is due to grip +movement then they are searched from the grip selected in the direction +opposite the pane selected. +.NH 4 +Resizing Panes from a Grip Action +.LP +The pane above the grip is resized by invoking the GripAction with +\fBUpLeftPane\fP specified. The panes below the grip are each checked +against all rules, then rules 2 and 1 and finally against rule 1 only. +No pane above the chosen pane will ever be resized. +.LP +The pane below the grip is resized by invoking the GripAction with +\fBLowRightPane\fP specified. The panes above the grip are each +checked in this case. No pane below the chosen pane will ever be resized. +.LP +Invoking GripAction with \fBThisBorderOnly\fP specified just moves the +border between the panes. No other panes are ever resized. +.NH 4 +Resizing Panes after the Paned widget is resized. +.LP +When the Pane widget is resized it must determine a new size for each +pane. There are two methods of doing this. The Paned widget can either +give each pane its preferred size and then resize the panes to fit, or +it can use the current sizes and then resize the panes to fit. The +\fBresizeToPreferred\fP resource allows the application to tell the +Paned widget whether to query the child about its preferred size +(subject to the the \fBpreferredPaneSize\fP) or to use the current size +when refiguring the pane locations after the pane has been resized. +.LP +There is one special case. All panes assume they should resize to +their preferred size until the Paned widget becomes visible to the user. +.NH 4 +Managing Children and Geometry Management +.LP +The Paned widget always resizes its children to their preferred sizes when +a new child is managed, or a geometry management request is honored. +The Paned widget will first attempt to resize itself to contain its +panes exactly. If this is not possible then it will hunt through the +children, from bottom to top (right to left), for a pane to resize. +.NH 4 +Special Considerations +.LP +When a user resizes a pane with the grips, the Paned widget assumes that +this new size is the preferred size of the pane. +.NH 3 +Grip Translations +.LP +The Paned widget has no action routines of its own, as all actions are +handled through the grips. The grips are each assigned a default +Translation table. +.LP +.sp +.Ds 0 +.TA .5i 2.25i +.ta .5i 2.25i + <Btn1Down>: GripAction(Start, UpLeftPane) +.IN "GripAction" "" + <Btn2Down>: GripAction(Start, ThisBorderOnly) + <Btn3Down>: GripAction(Start, LowRightPane) + <Btn1Motion>: GripAction(Move, UpLeftPane) + <Btn2Motion>: GripAction(Move, ThisBorderOnly) + <Btn3Motion>: GripAction(Move, LowRightPane) + Any<BtnUp>: GripAction(Commit) +.De +.sp +.LP +The Paned widget interprets the \fBGripAction\fP as taking two arguments. +.IN "GripAction" "" +The first argument may be any of the following: +.IP \fBStart\fP 1i +Sets up the Paned widget for resizing and changes the cursor of the +grip. The second argument determines which pane will be resized, and +can take on any of the three values shown above. +.IP \fBMove\fP 1i +The internal borders are drawn over the current pane locations to +animate where the borders would actually be placed if you were to move +this border as shown. The second argument must match the second argument +that was passed to the \fBStart\fP action, that began this process. If +these arguments are not passed, the behavior is undefined. +.IP \fBCommit\fP 1i +This argument causes the Paned widget to commit the changes selected +by the previously started action. The cursor is changed back to the +grip's inactive cursor.
