The Separator widget is used to separate items in a display: it is used for visual purposes only.
The widget supports a number of different line styles and vertical or horizontal orientation.
The Primitive resource Shadow Thickness (found in Core Resource panel) is used for the Separator's thickness when the Separator Type is "Etched in" or "Etched out".
A Separator may be either a widget or a gadget.
For more information, consult XmSeparator(3X) or XmSeparatorGadget(3X) in the OSF/Motif Programmer's Reference.
HINTS
The Separator can be used in a form, attaching each end to nearby widgets so that the Separator dynamically resizes along with neighboring widgets.
If a Separator is placed in a RowColumn widget, the row column will force its orientation to a particular value.
