Athena Widgetsand The IntrinsicsDRDo not modify this resource. While setting this resource will work,it can cause unexpected behavior. When this symbol appears thereis another, preferred, interface provided by the X Toolkit.This resource is READ-ONLY, and may not be modified.After the resource table is a detailed description of every resource available to thatwidget. Many of these are redundant, but printing them with each widget savespage flipping. The names of the resources that are inherited are printed in plain text,while the names of the resources that are new to this class are printed in bold. Ifyou have already read the description of the superclass you need only pay attentionto the resources printed in bold.For each composite widget there is a section on layout semantics that follows theresource description. This section will describe the effect of constraint resourceson the layout of the children, as well as a general description of where it prefersto place its children.Descriptions of default translations and action routines come next, for widgets towhich they apply. The last item in each widget's documentation is the descriptionof all convenience routines provided by the widget.Input FocusThe Intrinsics define a resource on all Shell widgets that interact with the windowmanager called input. This resource requests the assistance of window managerin acquiring the input focus. The resource defaults to False in the Intrinsics, butis redefined to default to True when an application is using the Athena widget set.An application programmer may override this default and set the resource back toFalse if the application does not need the window manager to give it the input focus.See the X Toolkit Intrinsics - C Language Interface for details on the input resource.6
