#include <Xm/RowColumn\&.h>
\fBWidget \fBXmCreatePulldownMenu\fP\fR(

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBXmCreatePulldownMenu\fP creates an instance of a
RowColumn widget of type \fBXmMENU_PULLDOWN\fP and returns
the associated widget ID\&.
.IP "\fIparent\fP" 10
Specifies the parent widget ID
.IP "\fIname\fP" 10
Specifies the name of the created widget
.IP "\fIarglist\fP" 10
Specifies the argument list
.IP "\fIargcount\fP" 10
Specifies the number of attribute/value pairs in the argument list
(\fIarglist\fP)
.PP
Specifies the number of attribute/value pairs in the argument list
(\fIarglist\fP)\&.
When this function is used to create the Pulldown
menu pane, a MenuShell widget is automatically created as the parent of the
menu pane\&. If the widget specified
by the \fIparent\fP parameter is a
Popup or a Pulldown menu pane, the MenuShell
widget is created as a child of the \fIparent\fP MenuShell; otherwise, it
is created as a child of the specified \fIparent\fP widget\&.
.PP
\fBXmCreatePulldownMenu\fP is
provided as a convenience function for creating RowColumn
widgets configured to operate as Pulldown menu panes and is not implemented as
a separate widget class\&.
.PP
A Pulldown menu pane displays a
3-D shadow, unless the feature is disabled by the application\&.
The shadow appears around the edge of the menu pane\&.
.PP
A Pulldown menu pane is used with submenus that are to be
attached to a CascadeButton or a
CascadeButtonGadget\&. This is the case for all menu panes
that are part of a PulldownMenu system (a MenuBar), the menu pane
associated with an OptionMenu, and any menu panes that cascade from
a Popup menu pane\&. Pulldown menu panes that are to be associated with an
OptionMenu must be created before the OptionMenu is created\&.
.PP
The Pulldown menu pane must be attached to a CascadeButton or CascadeButtonGadget
that resides in a MenuBar, a Popup menu pane, a Pulldown menu pane, or an
OptionMenu\&. It is attached with the button resource \fBXmNsubMenuId\fP\&.
.PP
A MenuShell widget is required between the Pulldown menu pane and its
parent\&.
If the application uses this convenience function for creating a
Pulldown menu pane, the MenuShell is automatically created as the real
parent of the menu pane; otherwise,
it is the application\&'s responsibility to create
the MenuShell widget\&.
.PP
To function correctly when incorporated into a menu, the Pulldown menu pane\&'s
hierarchy must be considered\&. This hierarchy depends on the
type of menu system that is being built, as follows:
.IP "   \(bu" 6
If the Pulldown menu pane is to be pulled down from a MenuBar, its \fIparent\fP
must be the MenuBar\&.
.IP "   \(bu" 6
If the Pulldown menu pane is to be pulled down from a Popup or another
Pulldown menu pane, its \fIparent\fP must be that Popup or Pulldown menu pane\&.
.IP "   \(bu" 6
If the Pulldown menu pane is to be pulled down from an OptionMenu, its
\fIparent\fP must be the same as the OptionMenu parent\&.
.PP
PullDown menu panes support tear-off capabilities
for tear-off menus through \fBXmRowColumn\fP
resources\&.
For a complete definition of RowColumn and its associated resources, see
\fBXmRowColumn\fP(3)\&.
.SH "RETURN"
.PP
Returns the RowColumn widget ID\&.
