.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
A client registers a widget or gadget as a drop site using the
\fBXmDropSiteRegister\fP function\&. In addition, this routine
defines the behavior and capabilities of a drop site by specifying
appropriate resources\&. For example, the \fBXmNimportTargets\fP
and \fBXmNnumImportTargets\fP resources identify respectively the
selection target types and number of types supported by a drop
site\&. The visual animation effects associated with
a drop site are also described with DropSite resources\&.
.PP
Drop site animation effects that occur in response to the pointer
entering a valid drop site are called drag-under effects\&. A receiver
can select from several animation styles supplied by the toolkit or
can provide customized animation effects\&. Drag-under effects supplied
by the toolkit include border highlighting, shadow in/out drawing,
and pixmap representation\&.
.PP
When a preregister drag protocol style is used, the toolkit generates
drag-under visual effects based on the value of the \fBXmNanimationStyle\fP
resource\&. In dynamic mode, if the drop site \fBXmNdragProc\fP
resource is NULL, the toolkit also provides animation effects based on
the \fBXmNanimationStyle\fP resource\&. Otherwise, if the \fBXmNdragProc\fP
routine is specified, the receiver can either assume
responsibility for animation effects (through the \fBXmNdragProc\fP routine)
or rely on the toolkit to provide animation\&.
An application can either handle all or none of the animation effects
for a particular drop site\&.
That is, an application should never do a partial job of animation
on a particular drop site\&.
.PP
Drop sites may overlap\&. The initial stacking order corresponds to the
order in which the drop sites were registered\&. When a drop site
overlaps another drop site, the drag-under effects of the
drop site underneath are clipped by the obscuring drop site(s)\&.
.PP
The \fBXmDropSiteUpdate\fP routine sets resources for a widget
that is registered as a drop site\&. \fBXmDropSiteRetrieve\fP gets drop
site resource values previously specified for a registered widget\&. These
routines are used instead of \fBXtSetValues\fP and \fBXtGetValues\fP\&.
.SS "Classes"
.PP
XmDropSite does not inherit from any widget class\&.
.SS "New Resources"
.PP
The following table defines a set of widget resources used by the
programmer to specify data\&. To reference a resource by name
or by class in a \fB\&.Xdefaults\fP file, remove the \fBXmN\fP or \fBXmC\fP
prefix and use the remaining letters\&. To specify one of the defined
values for a resource in a \fB\&.Xdefaults\fP file, remove the \fBXm\fP prefix
and use the remaining letters (in either lowercase or uppercase, but include
any underscores between words)\&. The codes in the access column
indicate if the given resource can be set at creation time (C),
set by using \fBXmDropSiteUpdate\fP (S), retrieved by using
\fBXmDropSiteRetrieve\fP (G), or is not applicable (N/A)\&.

by \fBXmNanimationPixmap\fP when the animation style is
\fBXmDRAG_UNDER_PIXMAP\fP\&.
.IP "\fBXmNanimationPixmap\fP" 10
Specifies a pixmap for drag-under animation when the
animation style is \fBXmDRAG_UNDER_PIXMAP\fP\&. The pixmap
is drawn with its origin at the upper left corner of the
bounding box of the drop site\&. If the drop site window
is larger than the animation pixmap, the portion of the
window not covered by the pixmap will be tiled with the
window\&'s background color\&.
.IP "\fBXmNanimationPixmapDepth\fP" 10
Specifies the depth of the pixmap specified by the
\fBXmNanimationPixmap\fP resource\&. When the depth is 1, the
colors are taken from the foreground and background of the
drop site widget\&. For any other value, drop site animation
occurs only if the \fBXmNanimationPixmapDepth\fP matches the
depth of the drop site window\&. Colors are derived from the
current colormap\&.

a valid drop site\&. The possible values are
.RS

The drop site uses an outset shadow\&.
.IP "\fBXmDRAG_UNDER_SHADOW_IN\fP" 10
The drop site uses an inset shadow\&.
.IP "\fBXmDRAG_UNDER_PIXMAP\fP" 10
The drop site uses the pixmap specified by \fBXmNanimationPixmap\fP
to indicate that it can receive the drop\&.
.IP "\fBXmDRAG_UNDER_NONE\fP" 10
The drop site does not use animation effects\&. A client
using a dynamic protocol, may provide drag-under
effects in its \fBXmNdragProc\fP routine\&.
.RE
.IP "\fBXmNdragProc\fP" 10
Specifies the procedure that is invoked when the drop site
receives a crossing, motion, or operation changed message\&. This
procedure is called only when a dynamic protocol is used\&.

.IP "\fBXmNdropRectangles\fP" 10
Specifies a list of rectangles that describe the shape of a
drop site\&. The locations of the rectangles are relative to the
origin of the enclosing object\&. When \fBXmNdropRectangles\fP
is NULL,
the drop site is assumed to be the sensitive area of
the enclosing widget\&. If \fBXmNdropSiteType\fP is
\fBXmDROP_SITE_COMPOSITE\fP, this resource cannot be specified by
the application\&.
.IP "" 10
Retrieving this resource returns allocated memory that needs to be
freed with the \fBXtFree\fP function\&.

Indicates whether a drop site is active or inactive\&. The values
are \fBXmDROP_SITE_ACTIVE\fP, \fBXmDROP_SITE_INACTIVE\fP, and
\fBXmDROP_SITE_IGNORE\fP\&.
An
active drop site can receive a drop, whereas an inactive drop
site is dormant\&. An inactive drop site is treated as if it was
not a registered drop site and any drag-under visuals associated
with entering or leaving the drop site do not occur\&. However, it
is still used for clipping drag-under effects\&.
A value of \fBXmDROP_SITE_IGNORE\fP indicates that a drop site should
be ignored for all purposes\&.
.IP "\fBXmNdropSiteOperations\fP" 10
Specifies the set of valid operations associated with a drop site\&.
This resource is a bit mask that is formed by combining one or
more of the following values using a bitwise operation such as
inclusive OR (|):
\fBXmDROP_COPY\fP, \fBXmDROP_LINK\fP, and \fBXmDROP_MOVE\fP\&.
The value \fBXmDROP_NOOP\fP for this resource indicates that no
operations are valid\&.
