[mod.computers.workstations] Sun panel subwindow input problem. Help?

david@comp.lancs.ac.uk.UUCP (05/13/86)

Can anyone suggest how to solve the following input problem on a Sun?

I have a panel subwindow in which I have one panel item of type
PANEL_TEXT. I want to display the panel item, get user input, change
the prompt, get user input etc

I've thought up a crummy solution using a list of prompts and their
associated input buffers; each time you go into the PANEL_NOTIFY_PROC
for the item you step up the list by one ...

Is there a better way??

        Thanks,
                David.
