NAME

       XmTextGetBaseline  --  A  Text function that accesses the y position of
       the baseline


SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Text.h>
       int XmTextGetBaseline(
       Widget widget);


DESCRIPTION

       XmTextGetBaseline accesses the y position of the baseline in  the  Text
       widget, relative to the y position of the top of the widget.

       In vertical mode (when the XmNlayoutDirection resource is XmTOP_TO_BOT-
       TOM) this function returns 0 and the program should  use  XmTextGetCen-
       terline


       widget    Specifies the Text widget ID

       For  a  complete  definition  of Text and its associated resources, see
       XmText(3).


RETURN

       Returns an integer value that indicates the y position of the  baseline
       in  the  Text  widget.   The  calculation takes into account the margin
       height, shadow thickness, highlight thickness, and font ascent  of  the
       first font (set) in the fontlist used for drawing text.  In this calcu-
       lation, the y position of the top of the widget is 0 (zero).
