Synopsis

#include <Xm/XmP.h>
void XmeGetDefaultPixel(widget, type, offset, value);

DESCRIPTION

XmeGetDefaultPixel generates a color associated with a logical component of a widget. For example, you can use XmeGetDefaultPixel to find the foreground color of widget.

XmeGetDefaultPixel uses the screen's background color to calculate the foreground, top shadow, bottom shadow, or select color.

Specifies a request for the generated top shadow color. The top shadow is the portion of the shadow that is generally above and to the left of the widget.
