mitem_visible - check visibility of a menu item  

SYNOPSIS

#include <menu.h>
bool item_visible(const ITEM *item);
 

DESCRIPTION

A menu item is visible when it is in the portion of a posted menu that is mapped onto the screen (if the menu is scrollable, in particular, this portion will be smaller than the whole menu).  

SEE ALSO

curses(3X), menu(3X).  

NOTES

The header file <menu.h> automatically includes the header file <curses.h>.  

PORTABILITY
