\fBmenu_format\fR - set and get menu sizes

|
|

|
|
|
|
|
\fB#include <menu.h>\fR
|
|
|
|

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
The function \fBset_menu_format\fR sets the maximum display size of the given
|
|
|
|
|
menu. If this size is too small to display all menu items, the menu will be
|
|
|
|
|
made scrollable. If this size is larger than the menus subwindow and the
|
|
|
|
|
subwindow is too small to display all menu items, \fBpost_menu()\fR will fail.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The default format is 16 rows, 1 column. Calling \fBset_menu_format\fR with a
|
|
|
|
|
null menu pointer will change this default. A zero row or column argument to
|
|
|
|
|
\fBset_menu_format\fR is interpreted as a request not to change the current
|
|
|
|
|
value.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The function \fBmenu_format\fR returns the maximum-size constraints for the
|
|
|
|
|
given menu into the storage addressed by \fBrows\fR and \fBcols\fR.
|
|
|
|
|
