Dear Xperts,
I have recently started trying writing an application using the
X11.3 libraries, including the Athena Widget set. My program compiles
and links ok, but when I run it I get the error message :-
X Toolkit Warning: No type converter registered for 'String' to
'Orientation' conversion.
when I try to create a managed widget of type asciiDiskWidgetClass. This only
occurs when I ask for a vertical scrollbar. The resulting scrollbar is very
strange, is about 1 pixel wide, has the double arrow cursor horizontally, and
does not work properly. I cannot see that I am doing anything different from
the code in xclipboard, which works as expected. Is the answer simple ?

If you are using XtCreateApplicationContext(), please make sure you have fix9 installed. Otherwise, we'll need more detail.
