'\" t .TH menu_format 3X "" .SH NAME \fBmenu_format\fR - set and get menu sizes .SH SYNOPSIS \fB#include <menu.h>\fR .br int set_menu_format(MENU *menu, int rows, int cols); .br int menu_format(MENU *menu, int *rows, int *cols); .br .SH DESCRIPTION The function \fBset_menu_format\fR sets the maximum display size of the given window. If this size is too small to display all menu items, the menu will be made scrollable. The default format is 16 rows, 1 column. Calling \fBset_menu_format\fR with a null menu pointer will change this default. A zero row or column argument to \fBset_menu_format\fR is interpreted as a request not to change the current value. The function \fBget_menu_format\fR returns the maximum-size constraints for the given menu into the storage addressed by \fBrows\fR and \fBcols\fR. .SH RETURN VALUE These routines returns one of the following: .TP 5 \fBE_OK\fR The routine succeeded. .TP 5 \fBE_SYSTEM_ERROR\fR System error occurred (see \fBerrno\fR). .TP 5 \fBE_BAD_ARGUMENT\fR Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument. .TP 5 \fBE_POSTED\fR The menu is already posted. .SH SEE ALSO \fBcurses\fR(3X), \fBmenu\fR(3X). .SH NOTES The header file \fB<menu.h>\fR automatically includes the header file \fB<curses.h>\fR. .SH PORTABILITY These routines emulate the System V menu library. They were not supported on Version 7 or BSD versions. .SH AUTHORS Juergen Pfeifer. Manual pages and adaptation for new curses by Eric S.
