If this size is too small to display all menu items, the menu will bemade scrollable. If this size is larger than the menus subwindow and thesubwindow is too small to display all menu items, \fBpost_menu()\fR will fail.The default format is 16 rows, 1 column.  Calling \fBset_menu_format\fR with anull menu pointer will change this default.  A zero row or column argument to\fBset_menu_format\fR is interpreted as a request not to change the currentvalue.The function \fBmenu_format\fR returns the maximum-size constraints for thegiven menu into the storage addressed by \fBrows\fR and \fBcols\fR..SH RETURN VALUEThese routines returns one of the following:.TP 5\fBE_OK\fRThe routine succeeded..TP 5\fBE_SYSTEM_ERROR\fRSystem error occurred (see \fBerrno\fR)..TP 5\fBE_BAD_ARGUMENT\fRRoutine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument..TP 5\fBE_POSTED\fRThe menu is already posted..SH SEE ALSO\fBcurses\fR(3X), \fBmenu\fR(3X)..SH NOTESThe header file \fB<menu.h>\fR automatically includes the header file\fB<curses.h>\fR..SH PORTABILITYThese routines emulate the System V menu library.
