Hello.
I have been trying to write a simple programme - just a window with a button inside.
I want the button not to resize with the window - it should have fixed size and should be inextensible.
I suppose an answer for this question is very obvious, but I can't find it out.
I created the button and set XmNresizePolicy, but it still resizes while fiddling with the window size:


top_wid = XtVaAppInitialize(&app, "Push", NULL, 0,
&argc, argv, NULL, NULL);
button = XmCreatePushButton(top_wid, "Push_me", NULL, 0);
Arg args[1];

I just changed to Ubuntu 10.4 and the pointer is frozzen when a popup menu should appear.

To replicate this new problem I just used the program simple_popup.c from http://www.ist.co.uk/motif/books/vol6A/ch-19.fm.html.
After clicking the button 3 (the right one) the pointer is locked in the window without any popup menu.

Is there any solution?

/* simple_popup.c -- demonstrate how to use a simple popup menu.
** Create a main window that contains a DrawingArea widget, which
** displays a popup menu when the user presses the third mouse button.

I get this error during the make. Here are the details.

Hi all,

In production server after filling data of fields in a particluar
window and clicked on OK button, all the window get closed except the
main window and generated core file in user's home directory. Once the
user exited from the application and login again and tried to do the
same thing then it successfully done. The user is not getting this for
every time. I tried to reproduce by doing the same operation in my
local test servers.. but couldn't reproduce. I never added any new
widgets or changed anything in the screen.

Hi all,
i would like to have a constant width for all OptionLabels.
I have tried without success:


n = 0;
XtSetArg (args[n], XmNwidth, 250); n++;
XtSetArg (args[n], XmNheight, 250); n++;
XtSetArg (args[n], XmNsubMenuId, *pulldown); n++;
XtSetArg (args[n], XmNmenuHistory,menu[0]._t ); n++;
*cascade = XmCreateOptionMenu(main_rc, menu[0]._S , args, n);
XtManageChild (*cascade);

note i can expand all menu[0]._S to the same size by adding spaces but i can not handle changes via resources.

I use and develop Motif applications with text widgets and the cut/copy/paste feature is behaving oddly on Mac OS X 10.6.2. I am using the X11 installation that comes with Snow Leopard. What I find is that paste doesn't work at all if I enable syncing of the OSX pasteboard and the X11 clipboard (cut deletes the text, but paste never inserts anything). If I disable syncing, paste works within one process, but if I start up another process, paste doesn't work from one process to another unless I run xclipboard. Is this expected behaviour?
