.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)
