## NAME

**XmRemoveFromPostFromList** — a RowColumn function that disables a menu for a particular widget

```

## DESCRIPTION

**XmRemoveFromPostFromList** makes a Popup or Pulldown menu no longer accessible from a widget. This function does not destroy a menu, or deallocate the memory associated with it. It simply removes the widget from the menu's list of widgets permitted to post that menu.

If the *menu* argument refers to a Popup menu, the event handlers are removed from the *post\_from\_widget* widget. If the argument refers to a Pulldown menu, its ID is removed from the **XmNsubMenuId** of the specified *post\_from\_widget*. Also, if the menu is a Pulldown menu, the *post\_from\_widget* widget must be either a CascadeButton or a CascadeButtonGadget.

  Specifies the widget ID of a the Popup or Pulldown menu to be made inaccessible from the *post\_from\_widget* widget.

- *post\_from\_widget*

  Specifies the widget ID of the widget which can no longer post the menu referred to by the *menu* argument..
