<p> <!-- index Motif --><a name="Motif"></a>
<p> This module is part of the <a href="commercialeditions.html">Qt Enterprise
Edition</a> and is <em>not</em> part of the Free or Non-Commercial
Editions.
<p> <h2> Introduction
</h2>
<a name="1"></a><p> The Qt Motif Extension assists the migration of old Xt and Motif based
applications to the more comfortable Qt toolkit. This extension
replaces the older Xt/Motif Support Extension included with earlier
versions of Qt.
<p> The Qt Motif Extension consists of the following classes:
<p> <ul>
<li> <a href="qmotif.html">QMotif</a> - Provides the basis of the Qt Motif Extension.
<li> <a href="qmotifwidget.html">QMotifWidget</a> - Provides the <a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a> API for Motif widgets.
<li> <a href="qmotifdialog.html">QMotifDialog</a> - Provides the <a href="qdialog.html">QDialog</a> API for Motif dialogs.
<li> <a href="qxtwidget.html">QXtWidget</a> - The Xt/Motif integration widget from the previous
Xt/Motif extension. This class is unsupported and has many known
problems and limitations. It is provided only to keep existing source
working; it should not be used in new code.
</ul>
<p> <h3> Additional Documentation
</h3>
<a name="1-1"></a><p> <ul>
<p> <li> <a href="motif-examples.html">Examples</a>
<li> <a href="motif-walkthrough.html">Migration Walkthrough</a> - A
complete migration of a Motif based program to the Qt toolkit.
<p> </ul>
<p> <h2> Common Problems
</h2>
<a name="2"></a><p> <h3> Incorrect CDE Color Scheme
</h3>
<a name="2-1"></a><p> <a href="qmotifwidget.html">QMotifWidget</a> and <a href="qmotifdialog.html">QMotifDialog</a> will use the same Visual, Colormap
and color depth that <a href="qapplication.html">QApplication</a> uses. When using CDE, the color
scheme may be incorrect when using a Visual, Colormap and color depth
that is not the default. To work around this problem, add the
following resource string to your startup files (for example,
<tt>$HOME/.dt/sessions/current/dt.resources</tt>):
<p> <pre>
*userColorObj: false
</pre>
<p> <h3> X11 Header Conflicts
</h3>
<a name="2-2"></a><p> The X11 headers define some constants that conflict with the Qt
headers. The solution is to include all Qt headers first, followed by
headers from this extension, and all Xt/Motif and X11 headers last.
For example:
<p> <pre>
// Qt headers first
#include <<a href="qapplication-h.html">qapplication.h</a>>
#include <<a href="qpushbutton-h.html">qpushbutton.h</a>>
#include <<a href="qsocket-h.html">qsocket.h</a>>
...
// QMotif* headers next
#include <<a href="qmotif-h.html">qmotif.h</a>>
#include <<a href="qmotifdialog-h.html">qmotifdialog.h</a>>
#include <<a href="qmotifwidget-h.html">qmotifwidget.h</a>>
// Xt/Motif and X11 headers last
#include <X11/Xlib.h>
#include <Xt/Intrinsic.h>
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
...
</pre>
<p> <h3> Multiple Screen Support
</h3>
<a name="2-3"></a><p> <a href="qmotifwidget.html">QMotifWidget</a> can be used together with <a href="qdesktopwidget.html">QDesktopWidget</a> to create
top-level windows on multiple screens. A common mistake is to create
a QMotifWidget on a non-default screen while the Xt/Motif widgets are
created on the default screen. The solution is to specify the screen
to both QMotifWidget and the Xt/Motif child. For example:
<p> <pre>
Display *dpy = QMotif::<a href="qmotif.html#x11Display">x11Display</a>();
Arg args[1];
// make sure both QMotifWidget and the XmMainWindow are on screen 1
XtSetArg(args[0], XtNscreen, ScreenOfDisplay(dpy, 1));
<a href="qmotifwidget.html">QMotifWidget</a> *toplevel =
new <a href="qmotifwidget.html">QMotifWidget</a>(QApplication::<a href="qapplication.html#desktop">desktop</a>()->screen(1),
xmMainWindowWidgetClass, args, 1, "mainwindow");
</pre>
