< p > < h2 > Introduction
< / h2 >
< a name = "1" > < / a > < p > The TQt Motif Extension assists the migration of old Xt and Motif based
applications to the more comfortable TQt toolkit. This extension
replaces the older Xt/Motif Support Extension included with earlier
versions of TQt.
< p > The TQt Motif Extension consists of the following classes:
< p > < ul >
< li > < a href = "tqmotif.html" > TQMotif< / a > - Provides the basis of the TQt Motif Extension.
< li > < a href = "tqmotifwidget.html" > TQMotifWidget< / a > - Provides the < a href = "tqwidget.html" > TQWidget< / a > API for Motif widgets.
< li > < a href = "tqmotifdialog.html" > TQMotifDialog< / a > - Provides the < a href = "tqdialog.html" > TQDialog< / a > API for Motif dialogs.
< li > < a href = "qxtwidget.html" > TQXtWidget< / 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.

< p > < h2 > Common Problems
< / h2 >
< a name = "2" > < / a > < p > < h3 > Incorrect CDE Color Scheme
< / h3 >
< a name = "2-1" > < / a > < p > < a href = "tqmotifwidget.html" > TQMotifWidget< / a > and < a href = "tqmotifdialog.html" > TQMotifDialog< / a > will use the same Visual, Colormap
and color depth that < a href = "ntqapplication.html" > TQApplication< / 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 TQt
headers. The solution is to include all TQt headers first, followed by
headers from this extension, and all Xt/Motif and X11 headers last.
For example:
< p > < pre >
// TQt headers first
#include < < a href = "qapplication-h.html" > ntqapplication.h< / a > >
#include < < a href = "tqpushbutton-h.html" > tqpushbutton.h< / a > >
#include < < a href = "tqsocket-h.html" > tqsocket.h< / a > >
...
// TQMotif* headers next
#include < < a href = "tqmotif-h.html" > tqmotif.h< / a > >
#include < < a href = "tqmotifdialog-h.html" > tqmotifdialog.h< / a > >
#include < < a href = "tqmotifwidget-h.html" > tqmotifwidget.h< / a > >
// Xt/Motif and X11 headers last
#include < X11/Xlib.h>
#include < Xt/Intrinsic.h>
#include < Xm/Xm.h>
...

< p > < h3 > Multiple Screen Support
< / h3 >
< a name = "2-3" > < / a > < p > < a href = "tqmotifwidget.html" > TQMotifWidget< / a > can be used together with < a href = "tqdesktopwidget.html" > TQDesktopWidget< / a > to create
top-level windows on multiple screens. A common mistake is to create
a TQMotifWidget 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 TQMotifWidget and the Xt/Motif child. For example:
< p > < pre >
Display *dpy = TQMotif::< a href = "tqmotif.html#x11Display" > x11Display< / a > ();
Arg args[1];
// make sure both TQMotifWidget and the XmMainWindow are on screen 1
XtSetArg(args[0], XtNscreen, ScreenOfDisplay(dpy, 1));
< a href = "tqmotifwidget.html" > TQMotifWidget< / a > *toplevel =
new < a href = "tqmotifwidget.html" > TQMotifWidget< / a > (TQApplication::< a href = "ntqapplication.html#desktop" > desktop< / a > ()-> screen(1),
xmMainWindowWidgetClass, args, 1, "mainwindow");
