shadow_type
Specifies the kind of shadow to render. The
possible values are as follows:

visuals and top shadow visuals are
reversed.
XmSHADOW_OUT
Draws shadow so that it appears outset.
XmSHADOW_ETCHED_IN
Draws shadow by using a double line to
give the effect of a line etched into
the window. The thickness of the double
line is equal to the value of
shadow_thickness.
XmSHADOW_ETCHED_OUT
Draws shadow by using a double line to
give the effect of a line coming out of
the window. The thickness of the double
line is equal to the value of
shadow_thickness.
