+.SH NAME
+XtAddGrab, XtRemoveGrab \- redirect user input to a modal widget
+.SH SYNTAX
+void XtAddGrab(\fIw\fP, \fIexclusive\fP, \fIspring_loaded\fP)
+.br
+ Widget \fIw\fP;
+.br
+ Boolean \fIexclusive\fP;
+.br
+ Boolean \fIspring_loaded\fP;
+.LP
+void XtRemoveGrab(\fIw\fP)
+.br
+ Widget \fIw\fP;
+.SH ARGUMENTS
+.IP \fIexclusive\fP 1i
+Specifies whether user events should be dispatched exclusively to this widget
+or also to previous widgets in the cascade.
+.IP \fIspring_loaded\fP 1i
+Specifies whether this widget was popped up because the user pressed
+a pointer button.
+.ds Wi to add to or remove from the modal cascade
+.IP \fIw\fP 1i
+Specifies the widget \*(Wi.
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.ZN XtAddGrab
+function appends the widget (and associated parameters) to the modal cascade
+and checks that exclusive is
+.ZN True
+if spring_loaded is
+.ZN True .
+If these are not
+.ZN True ,
+.ZN XtAddGrab
+generates an error.
+.LP
+The modal cascade is used by
+.ZN XtDispatchEvent
+when it tries to dispatch a user event.
+When at least one modal widget is in the widget cascade,
+.ZN XtDispatchEvent
+first determines if the event should be delivered.
+It starts at the most recent cascade entry and follows the cascade up to and
+including the most recent cascade entry added with the exclusive parameter
+.ZN True .
+.LP
+This subset of the modal cascade along with all descendants of these widgets
+comprise the active subset.
+User events that occur outside the widgets in this subset are ignored
+or remapped.
+Modal menus with submenus generally add a submenu widget to the cascade
+with exclusive
+.ZN False .
+Modal dialog boxes that need to restrict user input to the most deeply nested
+dialog box add a subdialog widget to the cascade with exclusive
+.ZN True .
+User events that occur within the active subset are delivered to the
+appropriate widget, which is usually a child or further descendant of the modal
+widget.
+.LP
+Regardless of where on the screen they occur,
+remap events are always delivered to the most recent widget in the active
+subset of the cascade that has spring_loaded
+.ZN True ,
+if any such widget exists.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XtRemoveGrab
+function removes widgets from the modal cascade starting
+at the most recent widget up to and including the specified widget.
+It issues an error if the specified widget is not on the modal cascade.
