The submenu is displayed when this widget is activated within a MenuBar, a PopupMenu, or a PulldownMenu\&. Its visuals can include a label or pixmap and a cascading indicator when it is in a Popup or Pulldown menu pane; or it can include only a label or a pixmap when it is in a MenuBar\&. The positioning of the PulldownMenu with respect to the CascadeButton depends on the \fBXmNlayoutDirection\fP resource of the MenuShell\&. .PP The default behavior associated with a CascadeButton depends on the type of menu system in which it resides\&. By default, \fBBSelect\fP controls the behavior of the CascadeButton\&. In addition, \fBBMenu\fP controls the behavior of the CascadeButton if it resides in a PopupMenu system\&. The actual mouse button used is determined by its RowColumn parent\&. \fBBMenu\fP also performs the \fBBSelect\fP actions in all types of menu systems\&. .PP A CascadeButton\&'s visuals differ from most other button gadgets\&. When the button becomes armed, its visuals change from a 2-D to a 3-D look, and it displays the submenu that has been attached to it\&. If no submenu is attached, it simply changes its visuals\&. .PP When a CascadeButton within a Pulldown or Popup menu pane is armed as the result of the user moving the mouse pointer into the widget, it does not immediately display its submenu\&. Instead, it waits a short amount of time to see if the arming was temporary (that is, the user was simply passing through the widget), or whether the user really wanted the submenu posted\&. This time delay is configurable using \fBXmNmappingDelay\fP\&. .PP CascadeButton provides a single mechanism for activating the widget from the keyboard\&. This mechanism is referred to as a keyboard mnemonic\&. If a mnemonic has been specified for the widget, the user may activate the CascadeButton by simply typing the mnemonic while the CascadeButton is visible\&. If the CascadeButton is in a MenuBar and the MenuBar does not have the focus, the \fBMAlt\fP modifier must be pressed with the mnemonic\&. Mnemonics are typically used to interact with a menu using the keyboard interface\&. .PP If the Cascadebutton is in a Pulldown or Popup menu pane and there is a submenu attached, the \fBXmNmarginBottom\fP, \fBXmNmarginLeft\fP, \fBXmNmarginRight\fP, and \fBXmNmarginTop\fP resources may enlarge to accommodate \fBXmNcascadePixmap\fP\&. \fBXmNmarginWidth\fP defaults to 6 if this resource is in a MenuBar; otherwise, it takes Label\&'s default, which is 2\&. .PP CascadeButton uses the \fBXmQTmenuSystem\fP and \fBXmQTspecifyRenderTable\fP traits\&. .SS "Classes" .PP CascadeButton inherits behavior, resources, and traits from \fBCore\fP, \fBXmPrimitive\fP, and \fBXmLabel\fP classes\&. .PP The class pointer is \fBxmCascadeButtonWidgetClass\fP\&. .PP The class name is \fBXmCascadeButton\fP\&. .SS "New Resources" .PP The following table defines a set of widget resources used by the programmer to specify data\&. The programmer can also set the resource values for the inherited classes to set attributes for this widget\&. 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 \fBXtSetValues\fP (S), retrieved by using \fBXtGetValues\fP (G), or is not applicable (N/A)\&. .PP .TS tab() box; c s s s s l| l| l| l| l. \fBXmCascadeButton Resource Set\fP \fBName\fP\fBClass\fP\fBType\fP\fBDefault\fP\fBAccess\fP _____ XmNactivateCallbackXmCCallbackXtCallbackListNULLC _____ XmNcascadePixmapXmCPixmapPixmapdynamicCSG _____ XmNcascadingCallbackXmCCallbackXtCallbackListNULLC _____ XmNmappingDelayXmCMappingDelayint180 msCSG _____ XmNsubMenuIdXmCMenuWidgetWidgetNULLCSG _____ .TE .IP "\fBXmNactivateCallback\fP" 10 Specifies the list of callbacks that is called when the user activates the CascadeButton widget and there is no submenu attached to pop up\&. The activation occurs when a mouse button is released or when the mnemonic associated with the widget is typed\&. The specific mouse button depends on information in the RowColumn parent\&. The reason sent by the callback is \fBXmCR_ACTIVATE\fP\&. .IP "\fBXmNcascadePixmap\fP" 10 Specifies the cascade pixmap displayed on one end of the widget when a CascadeButton is used within a Popup or Pulldown menu pane and a submenu is attached\&. The Label class resources \fBXmNmarginBottom\fP, \fBXmNmarginLeft\fP, \fBXmNmarginRight\fP, and \fBXmNmarginTop\fP may be modified to ensure that room is left for the cascade pixmap\&. The default cascade pixmap is an arrow pointing to the side of the menu where the submenu will appear\&. The positioning of the cascade pixmap to either the left of right of the widget, and the direction of the arrow, depend on the \fBXmNlayoutDirection\fP resource of the MenuShell\&. .IP "\fBXmNcascadingCallback\fP" 10 Specifies the list of callbacks that is called just prior to the mapping of the submenu associated with CascadeButton\&. The reason sent by the callback is \fBXmCR_CASCADING\fP\&. .IP "\fBXmNmappingDelay\fP" 10 Specifies the amount of time, in milliseconds, between when a CascadeButton becomes armed and when it maps its submenu\&. This delay is used only when the widget is within a Popup or Pulldown menu pane\&. The value must not be negative\&. .IP "\fBXmNsubMenuId\fP" 10 Specifies the widget ID for the Pulldown menu pane to be associated with this CascadeButton\&. The specified menu pane is displayed when the CascadeButton becomes armed\&. The menu pane must have been created with the appropriate parentage depending on the type of menu used\&. See \fBXmCreateMenuBar\fP(3), \fBXmCreatePulldownMenu\fP(3), and \fBXmCreatePopupMenu\fP(3) for more information on the menu systems\&. .SS "Inherited Resources" .PP CascadeButton inherits behavior and resources from the superclasses described in the following tables\&.
