XmTrackingEvent(3X)					   XmTrackingEvent(3X)

NAME
       XmTrackingEvent - A Toolkit function that provides a modal interaction

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Xm/Xm.h>

       Widget XmTrackingEvent (widget, cursor, confine_to, event_return)
	       Widget widget;
	       Cursor cursor;
	       Boolean confine_to;
	       XEvent *event_return;

DESCRIPTION
       XmTrackingEvent	provides  a  modal interface for selection of a compo‐
       nent. It is intended to support context help. The  function  grabs  the
       pointer	and  discards succeeding events until BSelect is released or a
       key is pressed and then released. The function then returns the	widget
       or  gadget  that contains the pointer when BSelect is released or a key
       is released.  Specifies the widget ID of a widget to use as  the	 basis
       of  the modal interaction.  That is, the widget within which the inter‐
       action must occur, usually a top level shell.  Specifies the cursor  to
       be  used	 for  the pointer during the interaction. This is a standard X
       cursor name.  Specifies whether or not the cursor should be confined to
       widget.	 Returns the ButtonRelease or KeyRelease event that causes the
       function to return.

RETURN VALUE
       Returns the widget or gadget that contains the pointer when BSelect  is
       released	 or  a	key  is released.  If no widget or gadget contains the
       pointer, the function returns NULL.
