We have an application using the HP workspace widget to which we are adding popup menus. The obvious approach using the HP menu widgets goes in easily but unfortunately causes a refresh to the workspace which is fairly slow. We are presently using the MIT X11R3 Sun 3 server. I would think that using save-under would be the best approach if it can be made to work. Is that reasonable? Is there any way to get this combination to support save-under? Is there some other approach? Or should we keep a pixmap copy of the workspace and refresh from that? Does the Motif server and menu widget support save_under?

It should work with any server satisfying the MIT protocol specifications. The Xt intrinsics support save_under though the save_under field of the public shell widget (section 4.1.3 of the Xt manual). Note that many current save_under implementations are not especially fast, so you should probably test this on you impelementation. Ken Lee DEC Western Software Laboratory, Palo Alto, Calif.

In addition to what Ken Lee pointed out (Motif doesn't contain a server, the Intrinsics Shell supports save_under), the Motif Menu Shell which is used by a popup menu does support save_under.
