.SH DESCRIPTION
This class is defined in the \fBQt Motif Extension\fR, which can be found in the \fCqt/extensions\fR directory. It is not included in the main TQt API.
.PP
The QMotifWidget class provides the QWidget API for Xt/Motif widgets.
.PP
QMotifWidget exists to provide a QWidget that can act as a parent for any Xt/Motif widget. Since the QMotifWidget is a proper QWidget, it can be used as a top-level widget (e.g. 0 parent) or as a child of any other QWidget. Note: Since QMotifWidget acts as a parent for Xt/Motif widgets, you should not create QWidgets with a QMotifWidget parent.
.PP
An Xt/Motif widget with a top-level QMotifWidget parent can begin using the standard TQt dialogs and custom QDialogs while keeping the main Xt/Motif interface of the application. Using a QMotifWidget as the parent for the various QDialogs will ensure that modality and stacking works properly throughout the entire application.
.PP
Applications moving to TQt may have custom Xt/Motif widgets that will take time to rewrite with Qt. Such applications can use these custom widgets as QMotifWidget with QWidget parents. This allows the application's interface to be replaced gradually.
.PP
\fBWarning:\fR QMotifWidget uses the X11 window ID of the Motif widget directly, instead of creating its own. Because ot this, QWidget::reparent() will not work. This includes the functions QWidget::showFullScreen() and QWidget::showNormal(), which use QWidget::reparent().
.SH MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
.SH "QMotifWidget::QMotifWidget ( QWidget * parent, WidgetClass widgetclass, ArgList args = NULL, Cardinal argcount = 0, const char * name = 0, WFlags flags = 0 )"
Creates a QMotifWidget of the given \fIwidgetclass\fR as a child of \fIparent\fR, with the name \fIname\fR and widget flags \fIflags\fR.
.PP
The \fIargs\fR and \fIargcount\fR arguments are passed on to XtCreateWidget.
.PP
The motifWidget() function returns the resulting Xt/Motif widget. This widget can be used as a parent for any other Xt/Motif widget.
.PP
If \fIparent\fR is a QMotifWidget, the Xt/Motif widget is created as a child of the parent's motifWidget(). If &#92; parent is 0 or a normal QWidget, the Xt/Motif widget is created as a child of a special TopLevelShell widget. Xt/Motif widgets can use this special TopLevelShell parent as the parent for existing Xt/Motif dialogs or QMotifDialogs.
.SH "QMotifWidget::~QMotifWidget ()\fC [virtual]\fR"
Destroys the QMotifWidget. The special TopLevelShell is also destroyed, if it was created during construction.
.SH "Widget QMotifWidget::motifWidget () const"
Returns the embedded Xt/Motif widget. If a Shell widget was
created by the constructor, you can access it with XtParent().
