XtSetSelectionParameters(3Xt)			 XtSetSelectionParameters(3Xt)

NAME
       XtSetSelectionParameters	 -  specify  target parameters for a selection
       request with a single target

SYNOPSIS
       void  XtSetSelectionParameters(requestor,   selection,	type,	value,
       length, format)
	       Widget requestor;
	       Atom selection;
	       Atom type;
	       XtPointer value;
	       unsigned long length;
	       int format;

ARGUMENTS
       Specifies  the  widget making the request. Must be of class Core or any
       subclass thereof.  Specifies the atom that names the selection.	Speci‐
       fies  the  type of the property in which the parameters will be passed.
       Specifies a pointer to the parameters.  Specifies the  number  of  ele‐
       ments  containing  data	in value, each element of a sized indicated by
       format.	Specifies the size in bits of the  data	 in  the  elements  of
       value.

DESCRIPTION
       The specified parameters will be copied and stored in a new property of
       the specified type and format on the requestor's window. To initiate  a
       selection request with a target and these parameters, a subsequent call
       to XtGetSelectionValue or to XtGetSelectionValueIncremental  specifying
       the same requestor widget and selection atom will generate a ConvertSe‐
       lection request referring to the property containing the parameters. If
       XtSetSelectionParameters	 is called more than once with the same widget
       and selection without a call to specify a request,  the	most  recently
       specified parameters are used in the subsequent request.

       The  possible values of format may be 8, 16, or 32. If the format is 8,
       the  elements  of  value	 are  assumed  to  be  sizeof(char);  if   16,
       sizeof(short); if 32, sizeof(long).

       To  generate  a	MULTIPLE target request with parameters for any of the
       multiple targets of the selection request, precede individual calls  to
       XtGetSelectionValue and XtGetSelectionValueIncremental with correspond‐
       ing individual calls to XtSetSelectionParameters, and enclose these all
       within  XtCreateSelectionRequest	 and XtSendSelectionRequest.  XtGetSe‐
       lectionValues and XtGetSelectionValuesIncremental cannot	 be  used   to
       make selection requests with parameterized targets.
