I am having trouble after I execute XtcreatePopupShell("hello",overrideShellWidgetClass,box,NULL,0); XtPopup(popshell,GrabExclusive); then later: XtPopdown(popshell); In that my asciistring widgets just 'freeze' i.e don't respond to keyboard inputs (responds to mouse selections...); All other widgets are ok and other text widgets in other 'top' shells of the program are ok. The popup shell contains a menu of commands and works fine. NOTE: This happens even with XtGrabNone and XtGrabNonExclusive and when I use other shells such as transient or toplevel I am using version R3 on a Sun (it will take a month before we get R4). I an using Athena the widgets.

After having tried different window managers (uwm twm awm) I found out that the roblem described in my previous post only happens with twm...! Any ideas why?
