I am trying to write an X program using HP Widgets (11R3) to make flash cards like the one below: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | X F l a s h : Francais [Quit] | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Translate: | | Je suis suisse. | | | | [ ] Gee that's a neat watch. | | [X] I like dairy products. | | [ ] I am swiss. | | | | No, that is incorrect. You are 3 for 23 | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here are some of my questions: (1) I cannot get the static text (the "Translate: Je suis suisse" part) to break lines. Am I missing something? I tried putting in both \n and \r characters, but neither did the trick-- they both displayed some character for the \n or \r. (2) Can I reuse the Panel when I change the question and answers? Is there some sort of "rethink display"? (3) Am I totally out to lunch here? I'm trying to do a lot of dynamic text stuff. My widget hierarchy is: toplevel Panel TBar ("Xflash: Francais") PushButton ("Quit") Form Text ("Translate...") RowCol Toggle Toggle Toggle Text ("No, that is...")
