Overview

X-Designer is a tool for prototyping a Motif Graphical User Interface - both in appearance and behavior - and then automatically generating the code for the interface.

A Motif Interface consists of a number of windows and each window consists of a hierarchy of widgets (for example, menus buttons and scroll bars).

Try the menu bar options to get a flavor of what is available and try clicking on a few of the widget icons in the Widget Palette down the left edge of the X-Designer Window to see what happens.

If you need help, the Help option on the Help pulldown menu at the top right of the X-Designer Window provides access to all help topics.

Each help item has a list of related topics: double click on the related topic within the list provided.

A full list of all help topics is available by pressing the 'Index' button.
