NAME

       XmAddToPostFromList — a RowColumn function that makes a menu accessible
       from more than one widget

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/RowColumn.h>

       void XmAddToPostFromList(
       Widget menu,
       Widget post_from_widget);

DESCRIPTION

       XmAddToPostFromList makes a menu accessible from more than one  widget.
       After  a  menu  is once created, this function may be used to make that
       menu accessible from a second  widget.  The  process  may  be  repeated
       indefinitely.   In   other   words,  where  an  application  would  use
       XmCreatePopupMenu or XmCreatePulldownMenu or their equivalent to create
       a  new  menu  identical  to  one  that  already exists, it can use this
       function to reuse that earlier menu.

       If menu refers to a Popup menu, then the  post_from_widget  widget  can
       now pop up the specified menu. The actual posting of the menu occurs as
       it always does, either through an event handler, or the automatic popup
       menu support (see the XmRowColumn(3) reference page).

       If menu refers to a Pulldown menu, its ID is placed in the XmNsubMenuId
       resource  of  the  specified  post_from_widget.   In  this  case,   the
       post_from_widget   widget   must   be   either  a  CascadeButton  or  a
       CascadeButtonGadget.

       Note that this function manipulates the internal structures themselves,
       not a copy of them.

       menu      Specifies  the ID of the RowColumn widget containing the menu
                 (Popup or Pulldown) to be made accessible from the widget.

       post_from_widget
                 Specifies the widget ID of the widget which will now be  able
                 to post the menu specified by menu.
