XMLISTREPLACEITEMSPOSUNSELECTED(3)

✨ NAME ✨

XmListReplaceItemsPosUnselected — bestie, it's a List function that swaps out items in a list without selecting the replacements 🎀

Like, it does exactly what it says on the tin. No sneaky selection side effects. Iconic behavior honestly 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <Xm/List.h>
void XmListReplaceItemsPosUnselected(
Widget widget,
XmString *new_items,
int item_count,
int position);

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Okay so here's the vibe: XmListReplaceItemsPosUnselected replaces the specified number of items in the list with new items, starting at the given position. The replacement items stay unselected — even if they currently appear in the XmNselectedItems list. No cap. They just chill there, unselected, living their truth 🦋

Now let's meet the cast 🫶

• widget — Specifies the ID of the List widget to replace items in. This is your main character, the list you're messing with ✨
• new_items — Specifies a pointer to the replacement items. The glow-up material 💖
• item_count — Specifies the number of elements in new_items and the number of items in the list to replace. Heads up bestie: this number must be nonnegative. Negative? Not today, not ever 🙈
• position — Specifies the position of the first item in the list to be replaced. A value of 1 means the first item replaced is the first item in the list; a value of 2 means it's the second item; and so on, forever and always ⭐

So, beginning with the item specified in position, item_count items in the list are replaced with the corresponding elements from new_items. That is:

• the item at position is replaced with the first element of new_items 🥇
• the item after position is replaced with the second element of new_items 🥈
• and so on, until item_count is reached ✨

It's giving perfectly matched pairs. Like a group chat where everyone gets a plus-one and nobody is left out 💕

And that's the whole page, bestie! This little baddie lives in the library call section — it's the XmListRepl...sUnselected(library call) entry, so go forth and replace items responsibly 👑💜
