I am running X11 R3 on a SparcStation1 and am getting different behaviour between my R3 Xsun server and the server in OpenWindows FCS 1.0 ( R4?? ) I have built a pixmap for a widget background which contains a smaller box with annotated axis on the top and left sides. I then create a child widget which is the size of the smaller contained box which is supposed to be "invisible". On the R3 Xsun server, using XtNbackgroundPixmap of ParentRelative worked fine, but when run on the server in OpenWindows, the interior box's background has the origin of the original pixmap (0,0) oriented at the child widget's origin. ( ie. I see the axes inside of what was supposed to be the "see-through" area ). Has the definition changed, disappeared, or what? I can't find any mention of ParentRelative in the R3 docs and I don't have the R4 docs yet. I had originally gotten the info off of the net.. I realize the description of the problem may be rather hard to follow, but if anybody has any ideas or suggestions, they will be greatly appreciated. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Joe M.

This looks like a bug in the XNeWS server. The X11 protocol has suffered no substantive changes for quite a long time; the definition of ParentRelative tiling has not changed.
