|---|
| 32 | .SH NAME | 
|---|
| 33 | \fBmenu_spacing\fR - Control spacing between menu items. | 
|---|
| 34 | .SH SYNOPSIS | 
|---|
| 35 | \fB#include <menu.h>\fR | 
|---|
| 36 | .br | 
|---|
| 37 | int set_menu_spacing(MENU *menu, | 
|---|
| 38 | int spc_description, | 
|---|
| 39 | int spc_rows, | 
|---|
| 40 | int spc_columns); | 
|---|
| 41 | .br | 
|---|
| 42 | int menu_spacing(const MENU *menu, | 
|---|
| 43 | int* spc_description, | 
|---|
| 44 | int* spc_rows, | 
|---|
| 45 | int* spc_columns); | 
|---|
| 46 | .br | 
|---|
| 47 | .SH DESCRIPTION | 
|---|
| 48 | The function \fBset_menu_spacing\fR sets the spacing informations for the menu. | 
|---|
| 49 | \fBspc_description\fR controls the number of spaces between an item name and an item | 
|---|
| 50 | description. It must not be larger than \fBTABSIZE\fR. The menu system puts in the | 
|---|
| 51 | middle of this spacing area the pad character. The remaining parts are filled with | 
|---|
| 52 | spaces. | 
|---|
| 53 | \fBspc_rows\fR controls the number of rows that are used for an item. It must not be | 
|---|
| 54 | larger than 3. The menu system inserts the blank lines between item rows, these lines | 
|---|
| 55 | will contain the pad character in the appropriate positions. | 
|---|
| 56 | \fBspc_columns\fR controls the number of blanks between columns of items. It must not | 
|---|
| 57 | be larger than TABSIZE. | 
|---|
| 58 | A value of 0 for all the spacing values resets them to the default, which is 1 for all | 
|---|
| 59 | of them. | 
|---|
| 60 | .br | 
|---|
| 61 | The function \fBmenu_spacing\fR passes back the spacing info for the menu. If a | 
|---|
| 62 | pointer is NULL, this specific info is simply not returned. | 
|---|
| 63 | .SH RETURN VALUE | 
|---|
| 64 | Both routines return \fBE_OK\fR on success. \fBset_menu_spacing\fR may return | 
|---|
| 65 | \fBE_POSTED\fR if the menu is posted, or \fBE_BAD_ARGUMENT\fR if one of the | 
|---|
| 66 | spacing values is out of range. | 
|---|
| 67 | .SH SEE ALSO | 
|---|

| 69 | .SH NOTES |

| 70 | The header file \fB<menu.h>\fR automatically includes the header file | 
|---|
| 71 | \fB<curses.h>\fR. | 
|---|
| 72 | .SH PORTABILITY | 
|---|
| 73 | These routines are specific to ncurses.  They were not supported on | 
|---|
| 74 | Version 7, BSD or System V implementations.  It is recommended that | 
|---|
| 75 | any code depending on them be conditioned using NCURSES_VERSION. |
