The R3 docs indicate that transientShellWidgets "can be manipulated by the window manager but are not allowed to be iconified separately...". This does not seem to be the case under 'uwm'. The problem is that the transientShells are positioned not by uwm asking the user, but automatically using the XtNx & XtNy values. They ALSO are able to be iconified individually. What I'm doing is the following: I create a top level shell using XtCreateAppShell, passing 'applicationShellWidgetClass'. Then I make a formWidget as its child, and then some sub-children. Finally I call XtCreatePopupShell, passing 'transientShellWidgetClass', with its parent being the top level shell. (i also tried using the formWidget as its parent without difference). XtPopup maps the window. Any clues? ----------------------------- Alan Epstein Meta Software Corp UUCP: ...bbn!metasoft!alan 150 Cambridgepark Dr Internet/ARPA: alan%metasoft@bbn.com Cambridge, MA 02140 USA -----------------------------

We won't claim that uwm follows any draft of the ICCCM (pick your favorite). A "draft standard" of the ICCCM will be available soon for public review, and we will be working to make uwm conform (or else to dispose of uwm :-).
