SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/Text.h>
       int XmTextGetBaseline(
       Widget widget);

DESCRIPTION

       XmTextGetBaseline accesses the y position of the baseline in the Text widget, relative  to
       the y position of the top of the widget.

       In  vertical  mode (when the XmNlayoutDirection resource is XmTOP_TO_BOTTOM) this function
       returns 0 and the program should use XmTextGetCenterline

       widget    Specifies the Text widget ID

       For a complete definition of Text and its associated resources, see XmText(3).

RETURN

       Returns an integer value that indicates the y position of the baseline in the Text widget.
       The  calculation  takes  into  account  the  margin  height,  shadow  thickness, highlight
       thickness, and font ascent of the first font (set) in the fontlist used for drawing  text.
       In this calculation, the y position of the top of the widget is 0 (zero).
