a tree showing the structure of X toolkit widgets used in an Emacs
frame.  Select one of them, such as @samp{menubar}, then select

a list of all the meaningful X resources and allows you to edit them.
Changes take effect immediately if you click on the @samp{Apply} button.

In the menu bar, the color of the foreground for a selected item.
@item horizontalSpacing
Horizontal spacing in pixels between items.  Default is 3.
@item verticalSpacing
Vertical spacing in pixels between items.  Default is 2.
@item arrowSpacing
Horizontal spacing between the arrow (which indicates a submenu) and
the associated text.  Default is 10.
@item shadowThickness
Thickness of shadow line around the widget.  Default is 1.

Also determines the thickness of shadow lines around other objects,
for instance 3D buttons and arrows.  If you have the impression that
the arrows in the menus do not stand out clearly enough or that the
difference between ``in'' and ``out'' buttons is difficult to see, set
this to 2.  If you have no problems with visibility, the default
probably looks better.  The background color may also have some effect
on the contrast.
@item margin
The margin of the menu bar, in characters.  Default is 1.
