XMMULTILISTSELECTROW(3)

✨ NAME ✨

XmMultiListSelectRow — bestie, it's literally the MultiList function that selects a row in the list 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

       #include <Xm/MultiList.h>
       void XmMultiListSelectRow(
       Widget widget,
       XmString row,
       Boolean notify);

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so XmMultiListSelectRow does exactly what it says on the tin: it highlights the specified row in the MultiList widget. that's it. that's the whole vibe. ✨

here's the rundown of the args, no cap:

• widget — specifies the ID of the MultiList widget from whose list an item is selected. like, which list are we even talking about? this one. 🫶
• row — specifies the row number (starting from 0) to be selected in the MultiList widget. yes bestie, zero-indexed, we love to see it. (and yeah the signature says XmString while the description says row number — we don't make the rules, we just report them 💀)
• notify — specifies a Boolean value that when TRUE invokes the selection callback for the current mode. from an application interface view, calling this function with notify True is indistinguishable from a user-initiated selection action. when notify is FALSE, no callbacks are called. none. zero. the callbacks are not coming to the function. 🙈

lowkey important: notify TRUE = the app can't tell the difference between you doing it and a user doing it. that's the whole point, iykyk.
