+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.ZN XtSetValues
+function starts with the resources specified for the
+.ZN Core
+widget fields and proceeds down the subclass chain to the widget.
+At each stage,
+it writes the new value (if specified by one of the arguments) or the existing
+value (if no new value is specified) to a new widget data record.
+.ZN XtSetValues
+then calls the set_values procedures for the widget in superclass-to-subclass
+order.
+.IN "hook"
+If the widget has any non-NULL set_values_hook fields,
+these are called immediately after the
+corresponding set_values procedure.
+This procedure permits subclasses to set nonwidget data for
+.ZN XtSetValues .
+.LP
+If the widget's parent is a subclass of
+.ZN constraintWidgetClass ,
+.ZN XtSetValues
+also updates the widget's constraints.
+It starts with the constraint resources specified for
+.ZN constraintWidgetClass
+and proceeds down the subclass chain to the parent's class.
+At each stage,
+it writes the new value or the existing value to a new constraint record.
+It then calls the constraint set_values procedures from
+.ZN constraintWidgetClass
+down to the parent's class.
+The constraint set_values procedures are called with widget arguments,
+as for all set_values procedures, not just the constraint record arguments,
+so that they can make adjustments to the desired values based
+on full information about the widget.
+.LP
+.ZN XtSetValues
+determines if a geometry request is needed by comparing the current widget to
+the new widget.
+If any geometry changes are required,
+it makes the request, and the geometry manager returns
+.ZN XtGeometryYes ,
+.ZN XtGeometryAlmost ,
+or
+.ZN XtGeometryNo .
+If
+.ZN XtGeometryYes ,
+.ZN XtSetValues
+calls the widget's resize procedure.
+If
+.ZN XtGeometryNo ,
+.ZN XtSetValues
+resets the geometry fields to their original values.
+If
+.ZN XtGeometryAlmost ,
+.ZN XtSetValues
+calls the set_values_almost procedure,
+which determines what should be done and writes new values for the
+geometry fields into the new widget.
+.ZN XtSetValues
+then repeats this process,
+deciding once more whether the geometry manager should be called.
+.LP
+Finally, if any of the set_values procedures returned
+.ZN True ,
+.ZN XtSetValues
+causes the widget's expose procedure to be invoked by calling the Xlib
+.ZN XClearArea
+function on the widget's window.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XtSetSubvalues
+function stores resources into the structure identified by base.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XtGetValues
+function starts with the resources specified for the core widget fields
+and proceeds down the subclass chain to the widget.
+The value field of a passed argument list should contain the
+address into which to store the corresponding resource value.
+It is the caller's responsibility
+to allocate and deallocate this storage according to the size of the
+resource representation type used within the widget.
+.LP
+If the widget's parent is a subclass of
+.ZN constraintWidgetClass ,
+.ZN XtGetValues
+then fetches the values for any constraint resources requested.
+It starts with the constraint resources specified for
+.ZN constraintWidgetClass
+and proceeds down to the subclass chain to the parent's constraint resources.
+If the argument list contains a resource name that is not found in any of the
+resource lists searched,
+the value at the corresponding address is not modified.
+.IN "hook"
+Finally, if the get_values_hook procedures are non-NULL,
+they are called in superclass-to-subclass order after
+all the resource values have been fetched by
+.ZN XtGetValues .
+This permits a subclass to provide nonwidget resource data to
+.ZN XtGetValues .
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XtGetSubvalues
+function obtains resource values from the structure identified by base.
