We are developping a C++ application and we have to use Motif for the user interface part. We will have to write editors for graphical objects. We are thinking of using the graphical objects of Interviews (the classes derived from graphic). The main problem seems to be adapting the graphicblock class so that it becomes a drawable Motif widget (e.g. XmDrawingArea) and no longer an Interviews interactor. We would be glad to hear of any experience like this. Or of any experience about using Motif in a C++ application *===============================================================* * * * Agnes Devarenne * * * * Alcatel-Alsthom Recherche * Route de Nozay, * * 91460 MARCOUSSIS FRANCE * * * * Tel. : (33) (1) 64.49.17.71, * * mail : devarenn@aar.alcatel-alsthom.fr *===============================================================* * Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar * * (S.

I don't know much about it but I think I would investigate Solbourn's OI toolkit that provides either Motif or Open Look look & feel. (Selectable at runtime). You can license it from AT&T. >*===============================================================* >* * >* Agnes Devarenne * >* * >* Alcatel-Alsthom Recherche >* Route de Nozay, * >* 91460 MARCOUSSIS FRANCE * >* * >* Tel. : (33) (1) 64.49.17.71, * >* mail : devarenn@aar.alcatel-alsthom.fr >*===============================================================* >* Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar * >* (S.
