Well using XmText gives you resources (defaults shown) called
	
	XmNmarginHeight		5
	XmNmarginWidth		5

Well using XmLabel gives you resources (defaults shown) called

	XmNmarginHeight		2
	XmNmarginWidth		2

This is probably what you are seeing.

Hi,
in a form widget I have a set of text widgets with corresponding labels
according to the code below:

            /* The form widget */
            text_date = XtVaCreateWidget("TextDate",
                xmFormWidgetClass,     rc,
                NULL);

            /* First text field */
            text = XtVaCreateManagedWidget("Text",
                xmTextFieldWidgetClass,  text_date,
                XmNtraversalOn,          True,
                XmNbottomAttachment,     XmATTACH_FORM,
                XmNcolumns,              fldlen(ver, text),
                NULL);

            XtVaCreateManagedWidget("Text",
                xmLabelGadgetClass,    text_date,
                XmNleftAttachment,       XmATTACH_OPPOSITE_WIDGET,
                XmNleftWidget,           text,
                XmNbottomAttachment,     XmATTACH_WIDGET,
                XmNbottomWidget,         text,
                NULL);

            XtAddCallback(text, XmNactivateCallback,
                XmProcessTraversal, XmTRAVERSE_NEXT_TAB_GROUP);

            /* Second text field */
            text2 = XtVaCreateManagedWidget("Text2",
                xmTextFieldWidgetClass,  text_date,
            .
            .
            .
I expected to be able to use XmTRAVERSAL_NEXT to travers to the next
text field. Why do I have to use XmTRAVERSE_NEXT_TAB_GROUP ?
The widgets text and text2 have the same parent.

Is there anyway to explicitly set a number of text widgets to members
of the same tab group ?

Many thanks in advance !

  Hi everybody,

Could you answer me this question, please :

 I've some windows managed by my application.These windows aren't in
iconic state. Because I hate overlapping of windows ( and for some other
good reasons), I wish to shuffle up one of these windows from my 
application... so give the focus to a window and not to a compound of a
window already focused with the mouse.

 The only way I found was to XtPopdown(window) and then XtPopup(the same
window) but it's not really good.(It's like lights on a Christmas Tree).

 By the way I wish to do the same thing with a non window application like
the xterm window where I called my application.

 And last thing, I wish to see my main applictaion window shuffle up
when I press the F1-key.


Thanx.

Since most (all?) X fonts don't have a tab character (0x09), does this mean
that it is impossible to get the functionality of a tab character in a Motif
compound string?

My need is in a List widget with a simple list of items that I want to tag
with, say, A, B, C, etc. I.e.,

A   item 1
B   item 2
C   item 3

This looks nice with spaces because you are probably using a monospaced
font in your news viewer. Would look cruddy with a proportional font.

If I want to use a proportional font in my List widget, then I would need
a tab character to line up the second column nicely.

Is this possible?

   I am constructing a toolbar where some buttons do actions when pushed, and
   others bring up popup menus. To make things consistent, I want the popup
   menus to come up with Btn1.

   I start with a RowColumn (of type XmWORK_AREA) with a number of PushButton
   children. An activate callback on each PushButton then either calls one of
   my action callbacks or calls XmMenuPosition and XtManageChild to popup a menu.

This will not work properly unless you have at least 1.2.1.  I believe 
it will work correctly with 1.2.1.

   The problem is that Btn1 pops the menu up, but only Btn3 will pop it down.
   According to O'Reilly #6, p 566, Motif makes a server grab and only releases
   the menu on a Btn3 release, no matter what event popped up the menu. It goes
   on to say that you can use XmNmenuPost to specify an alternate button to
   post the menu, but this is known to hang the server. I attempted it and caused
   the server to hang.

menuPost (or the deprecated resource whichButton) specifies what button
will cause the menu to post.  For good or ill,  the popdown also happens
with this button (i.e. it is filtered on the button number and modifiers).
It shouldn't hang the server,  providing that you do actually post the
menu in response to the button press.  If this was on OpenWindows,  then
there *is* a known bug there.

   Does anyone know how to bypass this XmNmenuPost bug? Does Motif 1.2 solve this
   problem? Or is there a totally different tack that I can take?
   I have tried using PulldownMenus instead of Popup, but they must be attached
   to CascadeButtons, which must be children of MenuBars, Pulldowns, or Popups,
   each of which have their own shortcomings.

I can't say for sure,  but my expectation is that things will work 
much more as you would expect with 1.2.1.  1.2 still has a minor
bug with posting menus from a random widget which was not planned
for.  The test case for the change was (in fact) posting a popup
from an activate callback.

If I use an XmScrolledWindow in APPLICATION_DEFINED scrolling, am I right in 
thinking that I have to do the same amount of work as I would do if I were
to directly create scrollbars, and manage everything on my own? 
The scrolled window doesn't even create the scrollbars in APPLICATION_DEFINED
scrolling, and all the scrolling callbacks are anyway with the scrollbars, not
with the scrolled window. So, what *is* the scrolled window doing except occupying
memory?

I am attempting to write an application that will use a 24-bit-deep
DirectColor visual, if it exists.  I would like this to happen whether
that visual/depth combination is the default or not.  I have tried
setting the depth and visual values to "24" and "DirectColor" in the
app-defaults file, and get no complaints from the toolkit, but the
XCreateWindow call gets a "Bad Match" error when the top level shell
is realized.

Here is the single toolkit call that I make:

   topIm = XtInitialize("topIm", "gg/xdisp2", NULL, 0,
			(Cardinal *) &argc, "foo");

And here are the relevant resources from the app-defaults file:

*depth:				24
*visual:			DirectColor
*topIm.geometry:		=+10+10
*topIm.depth:			24
*topIm.visual:			DirectColor

It appears to me that the depth for the Shell widget is getting reset
to the DefaultDepth of the screen.  This seems to preclude setting it
to any other value.

If you have any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate e-mail to

   But if the widget is not providing the functionality required, sometimes you
   gotta break the rules.

   Does OSF have an answer as to why the XmNmenuPost resource does not work?

It depends what your question is.  XmNmenuPost does work.  If the
RowColumn had menuPost set for button1,  and was posted with button1
then button1 would unpost it.  Now a different argument is whether
the menu should also come down on other button presses.

To post a popup menu one needs to:

1) Set popupEnabled on the popup menu

2) Set menuPost to the event specification that the menu will be posted
   on (very important,  lots of hand waving behind the screen).

3) Set an event handler on the posting widget which manages the menu
   on the appropriate event.

If steps 1, 2 and 3 are followed,  you should get proper behavior.

Now,  in a future release,  you'll just have to set popupEnabled to
a magic value and step 3 will happen for you.  But for now,  you
have to set it yourself.

Subject: xdvi display problem:  some lines show distorted
Date: 25 Jan 93 03:13:47 GMT
Organization: Computer Science Department University of Rochester

I'm having a problem with the display of xdvi.  While it generally works
well, some lines come out distorted.  Namely, they come partly "doubled up".
That is, these few lines seem to be partially printed twice, slightly offset
(vertically) from each other.  Somethines, a whole line comes out that way;
more often, part of a line.   The "doubling" is usually only partial -- that
is, part of the line is printed at one height, and part vertically offset a bit.

I'm using ISC Unix 3.0 (same problem with 2.2.1), a version of SVR3.2 for
the '386.  I've compiled with gcc, cc, and with every conceivable compile time
option -- including "-DNOTOOL", etc.  Dispalying with unshrunk fonts
("-s 1") doesn't help.  The same problem occurrs using Dell Unix SVR4.0.

I'm using MetroLink's X, X11R4 -- but, as I recall, I had the same problem
with other servers (e.g., ISC's native server).  I'm using an Orchid
ProDesigner card; but as I recall, I had the same problem with an earlier
Trident card (I think).  The monitor is an Idek Liyama; it's in SVGA
1024x768 mode, interlaced.  (But as I recall using the monitor in other
modes produces the shame problem.)

Using MetroLink's own compiled version of xdvi, under Dell Unix SVR4.0,
was no better.  (This was also compiled by MetroLink from an earlier
release of xdvi.)

This problem seems to exist only with the xdvi client.  I haven't seen
this problem with anything else -- including other TeX previewers.  So, I
suspect that it may be a bug in xdvi.  However, no one on any other platform,
to the best of my knowledge, has reporeted this peculiar problem.

Note:  This problem does not occur if one uses dvips and ghostscript to
preview dvi files.  Or, if one uses DOS and the ArborTeX previewer.

I'm perplexed.  I'd appreciate enlightenment from someone.  As I don't always
read this newsgroup, I'd appreciate email.  I'll summarize to the net when
the problem is solved.

You can buy NCD base units separately.  If you want to use a 1280x1024

Can't say in this case, but function prototypes, name mangling (which
basically guarantees the prototypes are accurate), the possibility of
future expansion along OO lines, and so on are all good reasons to
compile C code with the C++ compiler.  I do that with everything I can
these days, and recommend it to everyone.

Subject: Setting up PC X servers?

(I'm sending this to the xpert mailing list because we receive USENET
at our site, but posting is broken at present.)

I am in the process of configuring some systems as X terminals here
(PC-class machines and Sun-3 workstations running Seth Robertson's
Xkernel setup).  I'd like some help with this, as I'm just an
astronomer trying to get some work done, not a systems guru.

Basically, I'd like xdm (or chooser) on our file/compute server to put
up its window essentially automatically when the X servers are
started.  I see that on the Sun-3 "X terminals" I can do this with the
"-indirect" or "-query" switch on the server, but I assume I need an
entry in /etc/services to enable XDMCP.  What might this be?  How do
I specify the path to the xdm and chooser binaries?

The PC-class machines are harder.  The X server I use most, the
GfxBase one for the Amiga, doesn't have the -interactive switch.  Is
there some safe way to essentially do an "anonymous rsh" to start xdm
(or chooser) on the file server pointed at the X server on the Amiga
(and other PC-class machines to arrive soon)?

Thanks in advance for the help!
