.SH "DESCRIPTION"

.PP

\fBXmCreateMenuBar\fP creates an instance of a RowColumn widget

of type \fBXmMENU_BAR\fP and returns the

associated widget ID\&. It is provided as a convenience

function for creating RowColumn

widgets configured to operate as a MenuBar and is not implemented as a

separate widget class\&.

.PP

The MenuBar widget is generally used for building a Pulldown

menu system\&. Typically, a MenuBar is created and placed along the

top of the application window, and several CascadeButtons

are inserted as the children\&. Each of the CascadeButtons has a

Pulldown menu pane associated with it\&.

These Pulldown menu panes must have been created as children of the MenuBar\&.

The user interacts with the MenuBar by using either the mouse or

the keyboard\&.

.PP

The MenuBar displays a 3-D shadow along its border\&. The application

controls the shadow attributes using the visual-related resources

supported by \fBXmManager\fP\&.

.PP

The MenuBar widget is homogeneous in that it accepts only children

that are a subclass of \fBXmCascadeButton\fP or

\fBXmCascadeButtonGadget\fP\&.

Attempting to insert a child of a different class results in a warning

message\&.

.PP

If the MenuBar does not have enough room to fit all of its subwidgets on a

single line, the MenuBar attempts to wrap the remaining entries onto

additional lines if allowed by the geometry manager of the parent widget\&.

.IP "\fIparent\fP" 10

Specifies the parent widget ID

.IP "\fIname\fP" 10

Specifies the name of the created widget

.IP "\fIarglist\fP" 10

Specifies the argument list

.IP "\fIargcount\fP" 10

Specifies the number of attribute/value pairs in the argument list

(\fIarglist\fP)
