NAME
       XtSetSensitive, XtIsSensitive - set and check a widget’s sensitivity
       state

SYNTAX
       void XtSetSensitive(Widget w, Boolean sensitive);

       Boolean XtIsSensitive(Widget w);

ARGUMENTS
       sensitive Specifies a Boolean value that indicates whether the widget
		 should receive keyboard and pointer events.

       w	 Specifies the widget.

DESCRIPTION
       The XtSetSensitive function first calls XtSetValues on the current
       widget with an argument list specifying that the sensitive field
       should change to the new value.	It then recursively propagates the
       new value down the managed children tree by calling XtSetValues on
       each child to set the ancestor_sensitive to the new value if the new
       values for sensitive and the child’s ancestor_sensitive are not the
       same.

       XtSetSensitive calls XtSetValues to change sensitive and ancestor_sen-
       sitive.	Therefore, when one of these changes, the widget’s set_values
       procedure should take whatever display actions are needed (for exam-
       ple, greying out or stippling the widget).

       XtSetSensitive maintains the invariant that if parent has either sen-
       sitive or ancestor_sensitive False, then all children have ances-
       tor_sensitive False.

       The XtIsSensitive function returns True or False to indicate whether
       or not user input events are being dispatched.  If both core.sensitive
       and core.ancestor_sensitive are True, XtIsSensitive returns True; oth-
       erwise, it returns False.
