.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBXmScaleSetTicks\fP controls the number, location, and size of the
tick marks on a Scale\&. Each tick mark is a SeparatorGadget oriented
perpendicular to the Scale\&'s orientation\&. For example, if the Scale
is oriented horizontally, the tick marks will be oriented vertically\&.
.PP
If you specify tick marks for a Scale and then change the
Scale\&'s orientation, you will have to do the following:
.IP "   \(bu" 6
Remove all the tick marks\&. To remove tick marks from a Scale,
you must destroy (with \fBXtDestroyChildren\fP)
the SeparatorGadget tick marks\&.
The first two children of a Scale are its title and scroll bar, and
all additional children are tick marks\&.
.IP "   \(bu" 6
Recreate the tick marks by calling \fBXmScaleSetTicks\fP\&.
.IP "\fIscale\fP" 10
Specifies the Scale widget ID that is getting the tick marks\&.
.IP "\fIbig_every\fP" 10
Specifies the number of scale values between big ticks\&.
.IP "\fInum_medium\fP" 10
Specifies the number of medium ticks between big values\&.
.IP "\fInum_small\fP" 10
Specifies the number of small ticks between medium values\&.
.IP "\fIsize_big\fP" 10
Specifies the size (either width or height) of the big ticks\&.
.IP "\fIsize_medium\fP" 10
Specifies the size (either width or height) of the medium ticks\&.
.IP "\fIsize_small\fP" 10
Specifies the size (either width or height) of the small ticks\&.
